I promise you can make good arguments against David Griffin without being intellectually dishonest with the framing
There’s no intellectually dishonest argument. He had all three. Lots of players request trades and gms decline to do so. It has happened a number of times. Would it have been smart, probably not.

It's definitely a hugely flawed argument.

Guys (Harden, Simmons) will simply sit out and fake an injury if they're not in their desired spot. If you think AD was above that, idk what to tell you.

Dame Lillard demanded a trade, wasn't traded to his perferred destination, and there were hit pieces all off season about how Portland was a terrible orginzation that didn't do right by its' guy.
If Griff refused to trade AD, the pelicans would have been absolutely fricked in the long term. He was not staying here.
