This obsession with Treliving's hand always being tied or insinuation that he's simply carrying out orders is ridiculous. An executive that critically impugned or without autonomy to execute their own plan would never stick around unless they were completely spineless.
Every GM in the league would be getting an ownership stamp for something as big as handling your best player.

Every one.

All I've ever said on this is that this wasn't a one person decision.

If he gave the owners bad advice then you fire him for sure. I guess we'll find out.
