The last part seems to change some of the facts to add drama. JJ requested the trade and sat at home with him family getting paid. This makes it sound as if he was mad at getting traded at all.

As far as Zion's family, they seem to be high maintenance. I get the feel his Mom and Stepdad are just too "entitled." Having said that, when they say that the organization is not treating Zion like the superstar he is, they may be on to something. Griffin seems to be going out of his way to exclude Zion in the decisions. He should be talking to him about the new coach as well as getting his input of the roster to some extent. Griffin keeps saying he will not be part of the decision making process. Maybe it is time for Gayle to show Griffin the door and get a more "current" GM.

So maybe they're not entitled and just want what's best for him, and this franchise sure as shite hasn't done that for him through 2 seasons.

Slippery slope. Say you get him in a room and he tells you wants a certain coach, and then you don't hire that coach, now you just made it worse than had you just made the call yourself.

odds that this entire "rift" is based off of some reporter talking to Zion's biological dad..?
