Russillo has thrown a lot of stuff to the wall that hasn't stuck. People keep citing to him "calling" that CP3 was available last offseason but everyone disregards the circumstances and timeline.
Russillo first put out the rumor that CP3 was available which Morey adamantly denied. It wasn't until PG got traded in the middle of the night to the clippers that Russ became available and Morey started making moves on CP. Trade goes through and Russillo gets credited as if he called it when really he just threw something at the wall that stuck because of other circumstances after the fact.
As with alot of these clown insiders (except my man Woj, Iko and shams aren't bad either), not advocating for Rusillo, but he might have been right about CP3 (or just chucking stuff at the wall and happened to be right). Yes Morey denied it, but I think we all knew he was trying to trade him, didnt think it would happen with his contract though. I'm pretty sure Morey was lying through his teeth about CP, because I remember an article I read after the trade that quoated beard asking Morey what was taking so long. Either way I really dont think Russ is on the block, but if the right deal is presented Morey would bite with no hesitation (Harden is the only untouchable) it'd have to be a monster deal though. We gave up too much of our future to give up on a guy who's not been bad, to just dump him a quarter of the way into the season.
