To me, he's a terrific player. I had mixed emotions about that because I really liked Jalen as a person and a basketball player but this is the NBA, we've all been there before.
More Quotes from Wayne Embry:
We are a team in transition and need to play our young guys. Out of respect to Aaron, I thought it best for him to be with a team where he has a chance to play and that is in a playoff hunt.Wayne Embry
A player has to commit to it. A player has to want to do it. You can't just rely on your athletic ability. You have to grow, you have to learn. You have to have a zeal to succeed.
Wayne Embry
As part of our strategic plan, one of the top priorities to move this franchise forward has to be to get under the salary cap. I've never seen a team rebuild itself without starting from that point. This trade presents the opportunity for us to acquire 10 million in cap room.

We're going into February and Aaron hasn't played much. And we're committed to a youth movement. It was only right and respectful for him, to give him a chance to play elsewhere if he can.
Wayne Embry
I had to start over in Milwaukee and were able to build a (good) team. When I went to Cleveland (in 1985 as vice-president and GM) we did the same thing with a blend of young players and veterans. This franchise is in the same position. It's essential we blend youth in with veterans. We're going to continue that plan and I can see positive results.

My experience with coaches over the years is that after games, after losses, or under the pressures of the job, they need to vent. Over the years, I guess I've developed good ears.
