Don't bet on it. For weeks it's been reported that there's mutual interest between Travis Best and Milwaukee. Now we find out that Krause has been angling for Toni Kukoc, who was recently traded to the Bucks. Of course, there's no way Krause will take on Kukoc's salary unless he can move ERob somewhere else. So today the Insider steps forward with this remark:
Kukoc won't be more than a backup in Milwaukee and the ongoing problems with Cassell don't bode well for his future, so don't be surprised to see Milwaukee and Chicago find a third team interested in Cassell and Robinson, who can make things happen.
What would convince a third team to jump in and take on Robinson's contract, which has 4 years to go? That's hard to say, although it's probably safe to assume Robinson's toe is well enough to pass a pre-trade physical.
If Krause can find a taker for ERob (he found a chump willing to take Mercer, didn't he?), I expect he'll go out and sign Harpring shortly thereafter.
All I can say right now is that Robinson, Crawford, Fizer and Hoiberg had better keep their bags packed 'cause somebody's going to be on the move before camp opens 10/2.
