But Livingston's contract runs out and Francis' doesn't... I dont want to spend a ton of money resigning Livingston this offseason and I would be content with Francis running the point for me

The trade wasn't even so much as he was getting a young player for Francis... he asked me if he coudl have Cassel first but I would rather get rid of Livingston, because I have no intent of resigning either this offseason (both contracts run out), but Cassel was rated higher so I would rather keep him this year
Livingston was only getting 7 ppg before his leg-shattering injury anyway
