    Damn, Paul George would have been amazing on our roster too. Actually, he's amazing on any roster.

    So to recap.

    It's Harden's fault. It's Tillman's fault. It's Morey's fault. It's MDA's fault.

    I'm just going to start rooting for the Charlotte Hornets. Or whoever MCW is playing for.

    You hit the nail right on the head. I agree with you 100%. No further comment as far as I'm concern is necessary on this subject.

    Reporting with Ramona Shelburne: Free agents Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving are taking less than the max to allow DeAndre Jordan to get the $10M annual salary with Brooklyn, league sources tell ESPN.

    Money struggled to bring stars to Houston before harden.

    Lebron, Chris Bosh, [Pre-Washed] Carmelo, etc.

    They took a gamble on Harden when NOBODY thought he would be this good.

    Maybe stars don’t want to play in Morey’s analytics experiment?

    Great points as usual.

    Also, teams with no money, no trade assets, and no cap room also find it hard to attract stars.

    Not sure why?

    His talks about championship is totally BS.

    I just got flamed on another thread for saying the same things. I think you are exactly right. A motion offense is so much more fun to play in. The first priniciple of basketball is that every time the ball moves, the defense has to reset. When it doesn't, they rest. As much as I despised GS, their ball movement was a thing of beauty. When I played (never at the professional level) I loved a fluid offense and hated a stagnant one. I once played on a team with two ball dominant guards. They "never" passed the ball to the front line. Our only function was to "go for the garbage." It was very frustrating. One was an All Star player who averaged 30+ a game. He was great, but no fun to play with.

    It's a typical DaDakota Harden hating thread. Don't pay it no mind.
