re: The Historical Argument for Keeping AD

As I said in a post a few days ago. The thought of him and Zion together is amazing. And if he opts in or signs an extention you HAVE to see how this works. But without those things I'm just less certain about the whole thing.
EVERYTHING about our off season and what Griffin has been trying to establish is culture, culture, culture. And I LOVE that because I agree with Crews and his views on building a great culture is sometimes just as important as the talent a team has. And having AD halfway in, and halfway out for a whole season, and once again forcing our players and coaches to have to answer AD questions all season isn't the culture I think anybody wants to have this upcoming season.
Look ultimately, nothing is gonna bring my excitement down. Griffin, Langdon, Zion, I'm HAPPY. AD stays or AD leaves I'm happy. My only concern is the culture we're trying to build being messed up when everything has been trending in such a great direction. "All in or all out". Not "all in or all out and whatever AD is".

I get the historical argument for keeping AD, but he doesn’t have the mental or intangible makeup of a typical superstar. Only way I keep him is if we get at least a 2 year commitment from him and again I’m wary of trusting a guy that has had 85 different types of injuries in 6 years. Trade him for multiple pieces. That way our future isn’t tied solely to AD’s health or attitude. This shouldn’t even be a discussion.
