Yes, there was a reason. Baron wanted to be traded. He was disgruntled and there was no point in keeping him. What does Atlanta have to do with this again? What has Speedy been doing in ATL? Like you said, teams make decisions based on facts that none of us will be aware of anytime soon but at the time, getting rid of Baron was addition by subtraction. Maybe the GM would trade Paul for Lebron. But the OP is asking the fans, not the GM.
