    Was he?
    Is Morey not the genius we all thought he was?

    Yep. If only we still hand Hinkle, the team would have been able to add a bunch of 2nd round picks!

    What exactly do you want Morey to do? Keep trading just to keep trading? The closer you get to a set roster, the less money and players you have to include in trades, therefore, there's going to be less of them.

    Third seed in the West, 8 game winning streak. 20 wins over .500. Yep, blow it up. Also, it takes (at least) two teams to make a trade work.

    Yep, he was. Murray is nothing more than a gloried man and Hinkle is the true Moray.

    Hinkie would have spun Gracia and Casspi into LeBron and Durantula.

    Hinkie is smart man - accumulating 2nd rounds picks - in this CBA they are harder to get. Ask Mitch Kup (laker). He couldnt get 2 for Hill... Hinkie got 6!!!!! today.

    it is because he had a lot of things going for him.
    1.Cap space
    2. Expiring contracts
    3. Good Value contracts
    4. Decent players
    5. Roster Space

    All trades came with a price (2nd rd picks). It makes sense for teams looking to upgrade but had little manuever room to call phili. I am just surprised that LAL didnt call them to help faciliate a trade... oh yeah, the Lakers wanted picks not give picks.

    lmao Hinkie was looking to make his team worse.. Easier to do than to making your team better.

    Murray is nothing more than the leader of a puppet regime. It's clear now that Hinkie was the one pulling the strings.
