Reminder: Morey's "master plan" was paying max money to Parsons + Melo or Bosh

    Parsons: 15.4 ppg / 2.4 apg /4.4 rpg with FG% down from last year

    Bosh: Out for season

    Melo: Out for season


    Kyle Lowry: All Star


    Why have we not fired Morey yet? His "master plan" was to overpay for a combination of a league average small forward, and one of two stiffs who aren't even in the league right now and didn't want to come here when they capable of playing. Or, he could have had an all star starting point guard on $12mm per year deal, who actually wanted to come here, and who is a better player than the "stars" Morey snubbed him for.

    In this case it's actually great that Morey's master plan failed, because, like so many of his other master plans, it was completely stupid. Remember when he wanted to run a twin towers of Nene and Gasol, and even tried to set it up? Luckily Bosh and Melo saved Morey the Moron from himself. Can you imagine having all that salary tied up in two players, and only having Parsons' mediocre production to show for it?

    We are seeing now that Sam Hinkie was the true brains behind setting up the Rockets to get Harden, and Morey just rode his coattails.

    So...Morey's a fool because he couldn't look into the future and predict injuries...

    Got it

    You can't hold him accountable for Bosh having a PE. What you can hold him accountable for is photoshopping that POS Melo in a rockets jersey when Kyle when the rockets had their talks with Kyle. Hard to think why any FA would think a team has them under their radar when they're whoring themselves out to someone else.

    Melo would be playing if he wasn't on the worst team in the league, and it's not like anyone could have predicted that would happen to Bosh. What has happened to them doesn't make the plan itself any worse.

    No graphs? No Excel spreadsheet? No detailed analysis?

    I wish they would have made one of those cool cartoons, like the Mavs did when they tried to get Howard and failed. Dopeeeeeeeee

    This is a creative way to be negative. You have outdone most of the other doubters at this point.

    Dammit Murey, why didn't your iPad predict these injuries?

    This is one of the top five dumbest topics ever posted on Clutchfans. The others were all posted by LOFs.

    Congrats OP.

    Why didn't you send him your superior rotation that you were bragging about earlier?

    Oh, you wimped out on printing those for us. Are they your special secret? Don't be shy: show yourself and let everyone applaud you!

    It was a bad plan because Lowry is a better player than all of them and makes a ton less money. That is a compelling enough argument without bringing up the injuries which can't be predicted.

    If you can create me a graph or spreadsheet proving that Bosh would get a blood clot no matter what city he's in, I'll give this thread 3 stars.

    Fire morey?. We have james harden and Dwight Howard. Were blowing out raptors as we speak without Howard. Remember morey is the one who found these prospects like harden, Lowry and dragic and even Lin
