Well, I would hope it would light some fires under these players. Jauron certainly won't be lighting any fires under them, so Russ has to. However, I can just as likely see some players thinking they're being "disrespected" by all this trade talk (especially if they think they're worth millions!).
I'm glad someone is going through this team and trying to eliminate the dead wood. Kelsey? Simpson? They come cheap, but are hardly impact players. Is Denney still on the team? Can he be traded too?
