If someone asked Tre a question on Bennett’s future or any player for that matter and he answered, “it just is what it is”, he should be fired on the spot.
Everyone has these elaborate opinions on how great it would be if Bennett reached his upside, but when discussing topics that aren't so rosey, we are regulated to "it just is what it is" and "you deal with it"

As other posters have already stated it's obvious the chances of Bennett reaching his ceiling have diminished significantly. At this point you can't depend on him to fill the gap in the top-6 so you need to develop a plan to fill that spot from somewhere else. If Bennett does become a top-6 player then great, but that has to be Plan B at this point.
As far as trading Bennett goes he's currently a serviceable 3rd line player with upside that can fill in up the lineup if needed. Unless you're getting value in a trade that exceeds that what's the point?
