I've supported Kushner's stand, I think it's good for the overall big picture, but the problem here isn't a lack of will. The facts and rules just aren't in the Pels favor. As long as AD wants to play and is willing to file a grievance over it, the Pels can't win. Not only are they going against the league's anti tanking stance, I don't see how arbitration would find in favor of the Pels over a healthy AD. The Pels reasoning for benching AD is for #businessreasons while support for AD being allowed to play are #basketballreasons.



Yeah, it's pretty clear that the NBA has made it obvious that the option of just sitting him isn't on the table.

Is there ANY chance that this is how the Pelicans think they can best lose games when they discuss it behind closed doors?

Honestly, when AD was sitting, I thought that team was dangerous and was playing with the energy that could win regular season games. And when AD is back, I see several guys hesitating and deferring and not seemingly knowing what they should be doing.

Any way they reflected on it for a week, want to lose, and think that playing AD 20 minutes per game and having all the weirdness and lack of cohesion that happens as a result....That this is their method of tanking?
