    Moreyball is an outdated offense

    More than one.
    I wonder if the first to get fired will be CHO in charlotte but I wonder if such a bad owner like Jordan will be willing to put up with Morrey. But then there are countless more teams that will gladly drive their gms to the airports within the hour to get Morrey.

    Imagine if Morrey gets to Brooklyn or the Lakers. With such a big market even if he has no assets he can make pretty big damage.

    The word "insider" is lost on him.

    He's in the hot seat.......... Meaning he better make very wise decisions from here on out. Let's just hope we can turn it around and pick up some Ws. Doesn't necessarily mean he's getting canned next L.

    You don't get rich enough to own a NBA team by making threats. Les is a cutthroat businessman, he means what he says.

    Les is mad with Morey right now, but he is not going to fire him. Morey's contract is over on 2017 or 2018, Les will not fire a good GM to waste his money since he already lost lots of money on the coach firing. Les is mad for his money being wasted because of Morey coach decision.

    The Warriors won it all last year and are currently undefeated using a moreyball like offense. Explain how that is outdated.

    I'm glad that Les is bringing the heat to Morey. I think Morey will respond correctly.

    Warriors are far from a moreyball offense. Our two offenses could not be further apart.

    Morey is the reason we got Lawson for nothing and Harden.... this is bull t***.... Morey is the best GM in the NBA he inherited Brad Miller and Kevin Martin.

    The Warriors incorporate that strategy in their offense. They seem to be doing pretty well.

    lol what are you talking about? Moreyball is just about efficient players. The Warriors seem to be doing pretty damn well with their 3 point bombing strategy too. The problem is the ball not moving and that starts with Harden even though he is our most talented offensive player.

    You have stated this more than once and we all know that every team uses analytics... But you don't use it to run your entire offense and that has been the problem.

    The concept is the same. 3 pointers and points in the paint/free throws.

    The difference is they have a better system and players to implement that philosophy.
