    This is how I feel. I feel like a lot of GMs are familiar with his MO and feel it's too much of a bother to deal with him.

    he's following what Les wants. let's not blame Morey guys. he knows how to get quality players.

    honestly, all he lacks is charisma towards superstar players. come on! he's an MIT guy. nerds are not social butterflies.

    how many gm's are that ballsy and smart to ALWAYS come out on top of trades.

    That is ridiculous. Something has to be done about the pf situation.

    Maybe he is being sly and telling everyone its minor as a joke? I doubt it though. It could be a move sideways to free up roster space.

    Firing Morey would take this franchise back to the stone age. Yeah we would suck and probably end up with a high lottery pick, and might get lucky and draft a star, but we would be able to surround him with anything. It would be like the Steve Frances days all over again.

    The "Steve Francis days" helped us get Tmac. What superstar are we in a position to get now:confused:

    We are nearly in the stone age. You just dont know it yet because there is no bottom feeder record to label it yet. We are closer to bottom feeding than contending. Scola is old, Camby is old, Martin is nearly done here. Lowry is disgruntled and Dragic is on his way out.

    Or maybe his biggest issue is OVERVALUING our assets and current players. Maybe (just maybe) Morey constantly overvalues our players and his asking price is WAY too high causing teams to laugh at this ridiculous offers?

    What are you talking about? Our coach got on the radio the next morning and said that HE was disappointed because they didn't pull off a trade. He said he was surprised they made all 3 picks, and thought they had a chance to actually trade all 3. That's not media driven when it's coming from the coach, himself

    Morey has already caused players and agents to avoid us so yes, he should be fired even though he has made some nice cost cutting moves but it's not a normal business, it's sports. You go out there to win games, not to make sure you're boss doesn't overpay or gets over the luxury tax. Morey said in the press conference, he is allowed to do whatever he feels is right for the team to become a contender. Morey is all talk and no play.
