Billy Hunter has no problem with the proposal to dissolve the union Pierce

Now that players begin to show their first divisions, the union's executive director, Billy Hunter, wanted to send a message of unity and make it clear that in the end, everyone is rowing in the same direction. All have the same goal: ending the 'lockout'. Even Paul Pierce, who has emerged as the leader of the movement of dissidents who want to dissolve the union.

"I have nothing against Paul," Hunter said after the press conference in which the union said it would not accept the ultimatum of the League. "I think Pierce is frustrated because we have not reached an agreement. has been on the negotiating table and think we have not been able to move, so it was thought that the solution may be a solution. I'm fine with him and the decision taken. "

Hunter has been the player of the Celtics as an example throughout the negotiation process. According to counsel, Pierce has been very present during all discussions and has been involved from the start of negotiations. "It's important that players like Paul has been involved in both. That's been the big problem of athletes, many things they are imposed and can not do anything. However, Pierce has been very involved to try to change things and when thought it was time to dissolve the union, called me to tell me that would begin to see the other players. I agree with what he did, "said Hunter.

Yes, the union's executive director used his appearance to remind Pierce and the more than 200 players who have signed it and said to dissolve the union that the process is long. According to Hunter, the disintegration of the union would take between 45 and 60 days after the National Labor Relations to rule on the complaints of the players against the league for violating antitrust law.

An institution, of course, against which Billy Hunter has also charged. The union is still waiting for the Board to rule on the complaint against the League to negotiate in bad faith ("it's like waiting for the fairy godmother," said Hunter) and therefore doubt that if dissolution occurs, the decision of the Board issued a decision in time to save the season.
