    I've never whined about not getting FA. That is obviously you..... This is not the culture he created. This is the culture main stream media and agenda driven agents have created. It is what it is. Screw anybody who doesn't want to play here. If they want to come they will come, if not, Morey was never going to change that with a promise of "non-trade culture". This is not the 80's or 90's. Its a game but it's still a business, and business has changed.

    You're delusional. Morey's been known to openly brag about stockpiling "assets" to get this imaginary 3rd star. Former players have criticized him, and agents have directed their clients elsewhere. If guys don't wanna come here then it's time to start looking at Morey's job & this ridiculous culture HE created

    No,

    See if Rockets people would have kept their mouth shut, I think nobody would complain at all. We are having a very solid offseason so far :)

    You are delusional. He never openly brags. Everyone in this league is tradable. What happens is iquiring teams call, ask how much for who. THIS DOES NOT MEAN THEY WERE GOING TO LEAVE. This does not mean he was actively going to trade them. Nothing is wrong with listening to offers that could possibly improve the team. This is what gets leaked. If not as black and white as yoi try to make. You cannot impose this false narrative here.

    Yes everyone is tradeable, you've made this clear enough lol. But why go on a media campaign telling the whole world your players are up for trade? That's bad business. That's the type of crap that makes superstars not wanna come here. That's why they're skipping over Houston. Fans like you make it even worse

    Based on your discussions with the superstars? I just want to understand your argument: Morey is mean, so he should be fired? Iguodala was just traded for capspace and flexibility. The Clippers traded Blake. It's a mean world out there.

    JB is not a superstar so stop with that....The media campaign wasn't his. It was all ESPN and second rate sports writers. We never had this much heat until we've become real contenders. So i guess Morey isn't suppose to take other GM's calls?

    It's his job to try and improve the team, not make irrational fans like you happy.

    Talk is talk. Didn't care then, don't care now.

    Life tip: don't get emotionally invested in anything on social media.

    No. My argument is Morey should just SHUTUP, log off Twitter & temporarily stop doing interviews. Very simple

    Their ego and lack of accountability is why they won't win a championship. One of the 48 laws of power is don't outshine your master. The other GM's in the league aren't Morey's "masters" but he has to deal with them, and they have to agree to a trade. Morey is great, everyone knows it, but he goes out of his way to make sure they know. Correct me if I'm wrong, but he's on social media the most out of all GM's. It's always better to fly under the radar. Nobody's going to want to FINALIZE a trade with him if they feel somehow they might be getting the worse end of a deal. No agent is going to want their players to play here if they feel Morey will somehow find a loophole so he can save money on a deal. If this is the way it's going to be then he should stay off social media, radio stations and away from the cameras/reporters.

    D'Antoni, in all his years of coaching, has never held himself accountable. If Chris Paul can't convince Harden he needs to switch it up and play differently, who can? These are the leaders of the organization. This season they need to be in stealth mode. STFU and just get it done. Quietly.

    Morey treats his players as assets, not human beings, D'Antoni is not a good coach in the playoff runs, and he is a bad luck man in the playoff history. I would not surprised that the team chemistry would be a big issue this new season. CP3 soul is damaged badly during this trade process although everyone knows he is no longer good anymore, but ESPN or TNT just loves him than Harden, and some people still think he is top 5 PG.
