That's the bottom line for me. For that to change, he'd have to decline or the offers would have to improve. Until one of those things happen, I'll continue to hope the trio can accomplish more on the court than the consensus here expects, and I think we're seeing signs of that hope having merit.
I mean the reason you trade AD is not to be better in the next two years. Its to be better in year 3 and beyond. I'm willing to trade a couple of playoff series wins over the next two seasons if it starts the contention window a year or two earlier. But in order for that to be the case, it has to be a legit trade return. I have never advocated for trading AD for whatever you can get. I would not take any of those crappy ESPN deals. But if you can get a reasonable haul for him (like one of the Ringer deals) I think they should pull the trigger.
