Do I really have to bust out CP's resume. Do I really have to explain why we HAD to give him that contract after last year. We were going to beat the greatest team of all time, must regular season wins, you have to take that risk. And if you are calling our HOF PG an empty stats guy I advise you to go look at his advanced stats. This is unbelievable, honestly. Good lord
What was that Drake line...."You shout out my failures but whisper my accomplishments" Lool I expect that from other team's fan bases though
Look at the dates on the resume when you pull it out. Yes he is a hall of fame player, but he is old. He should really retire => he is not playing all the games because his body is giving out on him => which is normal. Go back and look at the history books => we didn’t beat the GSW last year so stop acting like we did. We lost to them in the WCF because we were injured and old (sadly what got us there is the same thing that stopped us, the addition of Paul). We where only close in the series because Iguodala was out. Iguodala would make Harden work for every point. While your in the history books look up Paul’s teammates over the years and try to figure out why he never did anything in the playoffs. Now go and look up human aging process. Put them together and stop being emotional explain the Paul signing. This is beginning of year one, he is injured and seem disconnected => we have a problem and it’s only gets worse from here.
I am looking at the dates, you are the one who said his stats were empty LOL, look at the last line of your post. He's 33, hes not that old, he's been injured but he hasnt declined yet. Yea, I know we didnt win but we got closer than anyone else ever has. And if we didnt re sign him, itd be the same people like you saying we should have. When you have that much success you have to take the risk which is something you clearly dont understand. Iguodala...dude really? Did you not forget we didnt have Luc..LOL. Make Harden work for every point haha bro...cmon, my god. Go look at the numbers with him in the lineup...he wasnt crap and his individual defense wasnt gonna bother us cause we wouldnt iso him to begin with, not to mention he couldn't hit crap from behind the arc. Do not every bring the Igudodala thing to me ever again, like for real its a bad argument. The Clippers didnt have sucess Because THEY(his teammates) either let him down or they got injured(one time yea he messed up). He ALWAYS brought it in the playoffs(even just last year he did was he to old for that 40 ponint,10+ assist game???, werent saying anything then were you). I already explained it to you lol but whatever. HOF always have a way of still being effective well into their thirties, go look at Stockton and Nash(though i will admit CP injury is a problem, no way around it but that means we need an effective back up).
I never said that either. Not sure where CF took the started putting words in everyone else's mouths, my simple point is that we set some ridiculously high bar and we aren't even close. So Morey can't escape blame.
I never said his stats were empty => I said he never did anything in the playoffs and had all stars around him most of his career. His stats have no hardware. We don’t have any cap space to get a backup for him because he takes a 1/3 of cap to his bank every paycheck. We are in a situation that is not going to fix itself. DM has his a lot of work to do with very little time and cap to do it. I have faith in our GM but every little in Paul. With Paul, Harden & Capela were have to fill in the rest of the TEAM with 1/6 of the cap. (Knight & Chriss are even in this equation) So okay we need to get him a better backup so a 1/3 of the payroll can sit. See how his signing doesn’t make much sense?
Uhh yea, that's actually what empty stats, mean. That his stats dont lead to success and its not true. He did not have all stars for most of his career....what??? You mean David West the one time all star ...wha, oh you mean Black Griffin the dude who was injured alot and honestly wasnt even that good except for the one year we came back and beat them(and that wasnt chris paul's fault either)....or De Andre Jordon who cant create his own shot...LOL, you need superstars playing together in this league to have success and none of those guys fit the bill. And if we are just going by hardware(thats a really bad argument) than lots of all time greats have these "stats without success" as you put them lol. Hindsight in 20/20, he was a big reason we won 65 games last year and took the GOAT team to 7. You take that risk if you are Morey. And he still can play, its just the injuries are a problem. And btw this year and next year we would have been over the cap so dont act like its because of him we cant get talent, its not like we make splashes in FA anyways. We get him a better back up so he can play when it really matters(which is the playoffs).
So what exactly are you saying then Morey is to blame despite not doing any major wrong move so far? How does that make any sense?
Yeah Capela is such a p***y he is only averaging 17 and 12 on 65% FG, man what a p***y! Omg he had a bad game, why do we use averages again? Oh yeah isn't so melodramatic posters like you take one game out of context? You complain about the roster being old, short and unathletic but you also want the only young, tall and athletic player we have gone lol. Been pissed for 2 years but we just reached WCF and got 1st seed last year, oh man people are really taking you seriously now you are so pissed even in the Rox's 3rd best season in history. Point is somebody fcked up this year but no need to act like Morey doesn't know what he's doing wtf.
This is insane. The fact that Morey brought this danger to the Rockets years ago is cause for concern. If he was the "best" GM, how could he not predict a slump like this. SMH, FIRE DARYL MOREY
He did make a wrong move, he overpaid CP. I would hope that there can be a consensus at least on this.
pissed last year because we probably win either game 6 or 7 with some form of a backup PG on the roster. 3 straight games capela's been outplayed in the paint. and if you look at most of our losses, he's been manhandled yes like a p***y whether it's drummond or lma or brow/randle or harrell or tristan etc etc etc. but getting back to morey, his shining achievement has of course been the harden acquisition. but hinkie played a huge role in that and since his departure, it's been one *** up after another for this front office. look at the current snapshot, the payroll and the roster are a fuking mess.
ya bucks announcers kept harping on this in the 4th quarter last nite. and lowry actually rimmed out a late 3 that probably would have given them the win. i couldn't help thinking about how lowry and CP3 are basically the same height and age (less than a year apart) and both of em seem to be regressing fast
I like Morey a lot. I actually saw him at Best Buy on the Katy Freeway this weekend Ultimately, pro sports are a bottom line business. I recognize that can be unfair at times. I'm not for firing Morey right now. Talk to me after the season ends.
Tough season so far for Morey. Striking out on that 3rd star (LeBron, Kawhi, Butler). Need to make a move after the 15th to salvage this season...waiting until the trade deadline will be too late.
