    My only issue with Les Alexander is that he tends to break up with head coaches badly. He has accused both of his most recent former coaches, JVG and Adelman, of not returning his phone calls, an accusation that both these guys denied (and it does seem ridiculous to think a head coach would refuse to talk to the guy paying him millions of dollars... makes no sense).

    Other than that, he's hired competent people-- JVG, Adelman, McHale, their assistants, and Morey-- and spend money on players, coaches and front office. There is not a whole lot to complain about.

    I love the analogy. But maybe Lauper was an anomaly;)

    I was with you until the outrageous Cyndi Lauper comment. Get your head out of your ass.

    Well maybe there's no word on options, but you can bet your bottom bippy that 4th year isn't a PLAYER's option!:grin:

    The most important question is, Will McHale trust him in the 4th quarter?

    Should have gave Morey a lifetime contract. Top 3 GM in the league.

    Well. Although a little undersized at 6'4", he's sturdy size has earned himself a name of stud who refuses to lose. Mostly importantly, he has that astonishingly cryptic capability in steals. The Dork is currently the leader of steals (4) during the '12-'13 season.

    If you're talking Front Office draft picks, Michael Jordan would keep them and select Elgin Baylor and Geoff Petrie.

    Love ClutchFans. The inevitable Les Alexander - Cyndi Lauper comparison.

    Not a lot to complain about except the one playoff series victory in 15 years and eight lottery trips. Other than that, he's awesome.

    Quiet the opposite. McHale was hand picked by Morey and by all indications Morey is very happy with his coaching.

    No but he did make him sign a "Poison Pill Contract"
    Daryl Morey simply could NOT AFFORD not to sign it!....:grin:
