The only person on this team that I would revolt about being traded is dirk. Unless he wanted to go...that's IT.
When I hear "no-brainer," I don't think Tayshaun Prince, even though I very much like him. Same with Harris. There were still significant reservations about him, even from many people on this board. No-brainer means no-brainer. Melo or D-Will are no-brainers (for Caron, anyway), but we offered up Caron for a lot of other guys besides those two.

I mean, I don't mind Donnie taking the positive approach, but he's sorta sounding like we refused to give up Caron unless the deal of the year fell into our laps.
