You definitely have to get way more than an expiring Drummond. KL would do it with the plan not to keep Drummond, but it's just a KP salary dump. I tend to agree with KL on Drummond (not on trading KP for peanuts/air) that he is not a winning player - never played for a winner, not a guy who will win you games, basically a super version of prime VAJ - and absolutely not someone you want with Luka long-term.

Now every little thing he does is a mistake, never getting the benefit of the doubt.
I'm not saying you're wrong either in all honesty, he for real could be what you're saying (well, other than you thinking it can get lots worse as a player sans injury). I'd just prefer patience, and I don't think you have to think that way either for the record. Was just wondering why you've went from team patient to do everything to get rid of this guy before it's too late in the span of about a week.
In his defense, he's been on the train for a lot longer than a week. Basically since the Portland games in the bubble.
