Dondon Hontiveroz and Danny Siegle to Air 21 Express Trade? Was it unfair?

Recently, a trade proposal was sent to PBA Commissioner's office was denied but later on approved with revisions made. A long time SMB players Dondon Hontiveros and Danny Siegle were among the 4(SMB Players) on the list that are to be traded to Air 21 Express in exchange to Noy Baclao, Rabeh Al-Hussaini and Rey Guevarra. For a member of a champion team with a countless contribution to the team, I think it is unfair for them to be traded. Those two should have been retiring their jerseys to their current team. But it's a management call and it would have been a tough decision. Well I am wishing good lucks to Dondon and Danny for their new team.
