    Morey looks like a r****d for past decisions, but passing up on ish smith isn't the end of the world. If the rockets are gonna be bad, they need to be full on bad.

    Can't believe some of these people thought the rockets were gonna get some key FAs let alone Durant. Our fanbase has some of the most delusional people.

    Unbelievable, Eric Gordon has one of the worst contracts in the NBA right now, and his productivity has declined.

    It just shows how uninformative fans are.

    About Morey, Morey's biggest weakness is draft.

    Morey can't draft, thus can't bring value to the team, the quality players who are underpaid at the beginning of their career. All good teams have players like this.

    Your definition of a productive pg is Ish ****ing Smith? Ish is way worse than Beverly, at least Beverly can defend and hit open 3s, Ish can just pass that's why he got cut he can't do anything else.

    Even Morey Haters are bashing you, that's how dumb this thread is.

    Young PG in mid twenties with career averages of 15.5 ppg, 6 apg, and shoots 35% from 3pt range signs for 1 year, $5 million with a scrub ass team instead of the Rockets. Where is Morey again? Maybe looking for more injury riddled mediocore players to overpay?

    Guy just doesnt get it.

    How can you criticize Morey for adding "injury-riddled, mediocre players" and then suggest that he made a huge mistake by not signing Brandon Jennings in the same post? Do you not realize how insanely hypocritical that is?

    Ish Smith does not suck and can actually play when given minutes. Your player assessment sucks

    Haven't you heard?

    The strategy this year is to acquire poor rebounders who never miss, thus making their poor rebounding skills irrelevant.

    All we need is another player who puts up a high volume of LOW PERCENTAGE shots. Ish has never shot more than 43% in *any stint with any team. 29% from three doesn't fit with the team. Period. What are you thinking hotballa????
