    I love his philosophy. Shoot 3s, avoid midrange, coaching doesn't matter, coin flip losses, soak and chime on wins, hand picked staff, first round picks, undersized powerforwards, twitter w****, pick fights

    Morey and Hinkie--they are losing their lustre in the eyes of the NBA. At the same time.

    Clap clap clap

    Morey is not done, he just need to revamp his ideas, bring in a good GM assistant who can help him transition to a better system.

    I love his repeated first round failures like Mook Morris over Kawhi or Royce white or te ****ing busy certified scrub Dekker

    Well we are definitely not going to the WCF. Sorry Les your beloved GM has either over calculated or under evaluated something.

    I really enjoyed Morey's decision to throw away this season

    I'm probably going to get flamed for this but whatever. Morey hasn't been that much more successful then Rick Smith as a GM. Morey has been given so much credit and not nearly enough criticism overall. I think Morey is an average GM just like Rick Smith. Has Morey really gotten the Rox legitimately closer to a championship then Rick Smith has the Texans in his tenure? Nope. And don't even bring up that fluke of a WCF appearance last year.

    First round? Sorry I don't like. Sam Dekker and R. White would agree me.

    What about his other first round picks where they went on to have successful careers?

    Any clown can pick out a few that didn't pan out.

    [​IMG], I laughed.

    Firing Morey would be a mistake imo. Needs to fix himself this offseason the same way James does.

    This team should have started tanking a while back, we know as well as anybody with our countless 14th picks that being this level of bad is the worst place you can be. FA are not going to come here anyway so stock pile and draft talent (which I know Morey is pretty bad at but worth a try)

    Try drafting in areas of need not just raw potential?!

    I rather Morey resign himself than firing him in a few years. (if it does not work out)
