    If that's the case, Asik to the Hawks, Milsap to Celts and we are getting Lee and Bass.

    seems like more of a desperation move to me (Morey following Milsap)

    It is the last person he followed. Don't know exactly when it happened though.

    Morey to Danny Ainge: " I gave you a favor by hiring Kevin Mchale (a.k.a. mcfail), even though he had a disastrous stint in Minnesota. Perhaps you can give back for that favor."

    Not really. Him following Millsap doesn't effect Ferry in any way. Unless, Morey feels good about a potential Millsap deal.

    I hope so, but Woj, Boston Globe, those outlets don't play loose ... the leak could be from Boston side too.

    And how much gas does he have left in the tank? Rehabbing? He was waived for a reason.

    I'd love to have a serviceable Candyman back as a backup 5. I was very happy when they signed him, very sad when they waived him. But if they waived him and kept guys like Covington and Smith and Brewer, well... that tells me alot.

    If Morey is going to supersize this poopoo platter with a 2015 clipper pick, then he better wait until Friday so Boston can't flip Asik to one of our rivals at the deadline for something of real value.

    Obviously, Morey starts following millsap puts the picture of his former teammate now a rocket up?

    You know, if it turns out us getting Millsap when we've been thinking all day it's Bass/Lee... I will have no choice but to come to the conclusion that Morey is simply following these threads and trying to figure out how he can most thoroughly screw with our minds before elevating himself to GM-God status.

    So, yesterday we thought Millsap for Asik was totally realistic. Today amid a flurry of tweets and leaks it turns into "All you're getting is Bass and Lee, it's the best that could be hoped for", and by announcement time... Suddenly he pulls off a Millsap.

    And new Morey .gifs are created, because no deal was ever so tough, nor any GM ever so savvy, and all is well again.

    Morey just pulling someone's leg. No way that can really impact a GM.
