Yes, yes, that would fall under the "internal organizational sabotage" umbrella, being a request that was forced on him by Lebron. Pelinka pivoted from that travesty pretty good though, and made trades that helped the Lakers get to the WCF.
Wouldn't you say this is similar to how Luka pivoted from the internal organizational sabotage that turned Porzingis into Davis Bertans and Dinwiddie, and led the Mavs to the WCF too?
Pelinka cleans up people's messes off the court, Luka cleans them up on the court.
