What is Asiks incentive to say he can play again?


Demps and Asik conspiring to commit insurance fraud isn't enough to make it happen. They need to convince independent doctors he's unhealthy enough to ever play again, a judgement which wouldn't take into consideration whether he's talented enough to ever play again.

guess i wasn't thinking of that. I'm not a fraud kind of guy. Hopefully he gets to medically retire, gets healthy, and lives happily every after, while we don't have his albatross of a contract anymore.

Yeah, just at a bare minimum to pull it off, you would probably need a medical staff that had a bit of a spotty history, maybe misdiagnosing injury probabilities, ones that led to trading an all defensive big man for pennies on the dollar.

Thankfully the Pelicans organization doesn't have that problem.
