I think when you factor in position and age Mo's value is probably higher. When you factor in the contracts I believe that he's also going to be easier to move (though his BYC status complicates things a bit).
Am I alone in my thinking? I would obviously prefer to vote Redd off the island, but if it was determined that Mo had to go for whatever reason, couldn't he fetch a pretty nice package?
I just feel that our options for dealing Mike are pretty limited. We obviously haven't been able to build around him, so there's little reason for a rebuilding team to think so either. I'm not saying that absolutely eliminates a team like Charlotte or Philly, but when you factor in his contract he becomes a bit less attractive. To say nothing of the fact that in order to ship him out, we're likely taking back another bad contract or two as well.
Then you have the contenders, or the teams that feel they're only a piece or two away. I think you would find that most teams that fall under that umbrella already have excellent scoring options at the SG positions OR due to the luxery tax, can't afford to add such a high priced one trick pony when they already have one, two or even three players with large salaries.
Mo on the other hand is reasonably priced. He's still young. He plays a position of high value. He also offers versatility in that he can be the guy who moves the ball or he can be the guy that scores.
