That seems completely reasonable. Unless it's a team he specifically wants to play for there is no benefit to him making any promises.

If you're an organization that has his bird rights, you let the money do the persuading.

It's not reasonable because he is making it public which poop offers. The front office right now are screwing over the Barnes's development year. His attempts and usage have tanked and we have some clowns that think we should resign some lazy diva about to turn 30

Yup. The Sixers. Only team that makes sense. They upgrade from to Tobias Harris to Pascal, and atone for their mistake in not maxing out Butler.
Masai's goal now should be to clear as much cap space for the summer by trading Schroder and Boucher for expirings. It's the only way to start building a competitive team around Scottie, RJ and IQ going forward.

Bash Masai and Bobby, not Siakam.

I also think it's the Sixers. This supposed fued with Nurse was overblown. It was one incident. Siakam became a 2x A-S and 2x All-NBA under him. Nurse loved him and played him as much as he wanted, and Siakam seemingly enjoyed the heavy minutes. I also think people are overstating the renouncements and other cuts they would have to make. When you can come out of it with a trio of Embiid, Maxey and Siakam, you do it.

When a star player bails - y'all complain.
When a star player, that has done so much for this franchise, wants to stay - y'all complain.
It ain't all about Barnes. If moving Pascal was this important to the FO, they should've done it last season or even this past summer. They chose to wait till the last minute and now they're paying the price.

That’s dumb on his part. Half these teams can’t even sign him in the off-season.
Is it really Philly or bust?

Disagree. I don't think Pascal has been trying as hard (especially on D). I am not buying this whole 'Pascal is giving us all' these days. Pascal has more or less given up on the team and is just stat-padding these days.
