    Don’t agree with this if he gets hurt that could devastate this franchise .

    Even if he doesn't get hurt, gonna be hard to watch the games with AD playing. But if he does get hurt they better be rigging the lottery for us

    “Congratulations... you played yourself”

    This is such a poor, predictable move. We absolutely don’t have to play him

    He can dress out and sit the rest of the season. DNP-Coaches Decision...at some point he gives in and says he's had enough.

    He didn't say how much he would play. But I agree that he should sit.

    Duuude. You guys have got to chill. This was how this HAD to happen. This quote says it all:

    "Moreover, the Pelicans want to preserve the integrity of the game and align our organization with NBA policies."

    The NBA will not allow a team to sit a player who is healthy even if he has requested a trade. If he gets injured, so be it. We knew the risk going in and I would much rather take that risk than try to trade away the Lakers poo-poo platter. And you'd better believe if he gets a hangnail our trainers will be advising 2 weeks of rest. This was the gamble you had to take and us as fans can decide how we want to treat AD when he steps back on the court.

    Yeah. I would bet money the league pressured this.

    So do you think he’ll get cheered or booed ???

    I Will BOO him with vitriol. He can't tell the players, coach's and the entire organazation that they all SUCK to the point that I'm leaving , but before I go, I want to play a few pick-up games with you guys to stay in shape, OK? Screw him.

    I told you guys, if he has any incentives in his contract, AD would have a case against them under the CBA. That and Demps is just so far in over his head. The guys has zero business running an NBA franchise.
    I'm looking for real sports fans...not sheep! Are you with me?!!!

    Not to mention this will screw up our draft pick

    Honestly, what does this change? Had he not requested a trade now and played out the season the risk for injury does not change. This changes nothing compared to where we were two weeks ago. Except now we just know he won't be signing the extension.

    You can tell by that BS statement about the integrity of the league (the same league that allows open tampering by its golden child).

    Uh, because he is not longer in your plans and is nothing but an asset needed to rebuild the team.
