Just make the team better, even if we lose him. Back sliding is not an option

Thing is, theres no one we can trade him for thats going to make us better. Not someone thats going to come in here immediately, mesh with luka and put up 18/9/1.5 every night. Any team that may be interested will be contenders to put them over the top, salary dump, or wait til the summer.
So FO can keep trying to strongarm him saying we'll trade you, but they will ONLY be hurting the roster. Hes way more important to this team right now than anyone theyll trade for.
