I've already acknowledged that, in-principle, he was open to the idea and could see why it was being discussed. But he said he thought it was "unworkable because of the salary cap implications" and pointed out that "comparisons to the past [in terms of mid-season trades] don't really work because of the complexity of the salary cap and the severity of the equalisation measures".
Are you really going to disagree that he doesn't like the idea based on his philosophical stance of being open to any and all proposals? He explicitly said - and this is a verbatim quote here - "I don't like it". Yes, he immediately qualified that with an explication of his openness to the concept and his willingness to consider that it could have merit, but he still said that he didn't like it, which was the point I was making in the first place. I mean, really, when the assertion being put forward is "Chris Scott doesn't like the idea" and audio exists of him "I don't like it", what more evidence could you possibly want?
