Should we keep Jrue on the team next season?

If this is true the reason I can think of is I've heard rumors of Jrue not rehabbing correctly after his first leg surgery and Dell having a "come to Jesus" meeting with him where he basically told him, rehab right or get traded to a bad team.
Now granted, since that time Jrue did indeed rehab correctly and Dell has made every effort to support him - including full support for indefinite leave when his wife needed her surgery - so you would hope they would have moved past any issue. Still maybe Jrue holds some resentment towards Dell, or maybe he is posturing for a better deal.
It makes sense for him to pretend to be wish washy on the team even if he wants to resign here. I do remember Jrue was trying to throw down a dunk on a break away in one of the games late in the season and he yelled, "Big 3." So who knows.

Middling is probably a little too strong of a word, but I do think Dell has a number in mind for Jrue and a plan to supplement Jrue. Jrue is a tactic this summer, not the strategy. That could be a bit of a buzzkill for Jrue in contrast to the bright lights of Free Agency.
