What are you even talking about? Bruce DID deal with this issue head on.

Three days after the initial rumor came out, he spoke with a reputable, local, reporter - JP Finlay. He told JP Trent was a valuable player, that he'd talked with Trent directly about it, understood what Trent's concerns were, and that he'd keep the conversation confidential.

I will not defend any of Allen's bungling of dozens of situations, but he's handled this situation (at least publicly) in the correct way.
