It's pretty clear, and you can tell from the McMahon discussion taht KL posted, that Nico (and probably Kidd) were tired of Luka having to play his way into shape every season. They also believed that the nagging injuries were because of his lack of taking care of his health. I love Luka, but I could have lived with him being traded if the return wasn't so obviously too low. Luka for Giannis? Sign me up. Luka for AD, Reaves, and 3 FRPs? I don't love it, but fine. It's just shocking that Nico was so fed up that he was wiling to take what he got just to get him out of town.
