Of course they should want to get rid of him, my doubts were whether they could. Not sure where federal law and nba bylaw intersect on the issue but straight up forcing someone to sell sounds illegal. The punishment silver dished out seems to be a proxy for making him sell by frustrating him, which hopefully works. This guys crustiness level is through the roof though so I don't see him going out without a fight.
