I'd rather trade him to StL and get another top 10 pick to go with the one we will earn for ourselves.
Think about it, if we trade away every player that "deserves to be on a better team than we are" then there are several others that could say they deserve to be elsewhere too.
Like it or not, Tony is a part of this bad team. Tony could have tried to make this team better, but he's instead chosen to think only of himself, start complaining, create a distraction, and give a bunch of young players that look up to him an example to follow that is detrimental to the concept of team.
I like Tony, I really do. I am disappointed in him right now though. And if he's going to be traded, it should be for a pick(s), the other team should be sending us picks that equal in value the player we send them.
