    Did you just wake up from a coma? Dumars has been totally indefensible since 2004. Yes, the Pistons won the 'ship then and appeared in a lot of ECF, but he made a ton of missteps that would've gotten anybody else fired:

    • Drafted Darko Milicic ahead of Carmelo Anthony, Dwayne Wade and Chris Bosh
    • Signed Richard Hamilton and Tayshaun Prince to extensions past their primes
    • Traded for a washed-up Allen Iverson
    • Wasted cap space on Charlie Villanueva and Ben Gordon
    • Wasted cap space on Brandon Jennings and Josh Smith when the team already had Greg Monroe and Andre Drummond

    Yeah he made some bad moves, but all GM's make mistakes even the best ones like SA, Pat Riley, Morey, etc. This is the same GM that made great moves also like trading for Richard Hamilton. Getting Billups. Drafting Tayshaun Prince. Traded for Ben Wallace. Drafting Andre Drummond. just to name a few. Won a CHAMPIONSHIP!!!!!!(clearly stated before)

    how can a GM be considered top 10 worse in the last 10 years when he won a championship?! I'm not saying that hes a great GM or even a good one, but this Dumars is far from the top 10 worse GM.

    If if was top 10 worse GM of the last 5 years it would be a different case.

    I politely disagree with your oladipo " ...is a natural 2/3" statement. No way oladipo plays the 3. He and kyrie would look real good in that cleveland backcourt together.

    The king of this mountain still has to be David Kahn. He didn't lock up Kevin Love to a max extension and now it looks like Love will bolt Minnesota the first chance he gets. Additionally, he wasted two straight picks in the same draft on Ricky Rubio and Jonny Flynn while Steph Curry was still on the board. He locked up Rubio before Love and now Ricky's on pace to be the worst shooter in modern NBA history.

    Waiters is better than Barnes, Thompson is better than Val and Bennett has more upside than Oladipo. Sorry but Grant is a better GM than you.
