    whenever Morey signs a player no one wants or thinks is garbage they ALWAYS seem to surprise (for a couple months at least). Hamilton, Garcia, Delfino.

    To me, this is more exciting than getting some washed-out veterans. With Morey's track record of finding diamonds in the rough (how did we get Parsons in the first place?), there is no doubt in my mind some of these Euro talent or overlooked D-League players will be real contributors.

    Dorsey averaged 12.5 points 13.9 rebounds and 2.6 blocks per 36 minutes on 67% shooting last year with Barcelona.

    Straight bum. Morey has more faith in Dorsey than a solid veteran FA already in the league? r****ded

    These are basically minimum deals. Relax.

    Who is it that you think we can add that gets us closer to a title right now that Morey should sign?

    Furthermore, how long did you guys really think Morey was going to go without out an undersized center on the Rockets.

    Chances are he couldn't get them to sign one year vet. min deals.
    Morey still wants the cap space. :(

    Not too mad about that. Clipps are overpaying for a glorified shot blocker and rebounder with 0 offensive game.
    Basically Joey Dorsey but taller...

    Brad Newley has been playing in Spain for the last few season. Sign him next! Please, more Spanish League players, Murray!

    I like that they're scouring and signing oversea talent, instead of signing over the hill veterans that can barely produce.

    If we could bring over Llull, it could end this rather disappointing off-season on a positive note.

    This^. Guys Patrick Beverly looked like a terrible pickup when we got him just because of how he was when he first was in the league. Nobody realizes that the top players of these overseas teams can easily bang with the NBA.

    Interested to see how this plays out. He'll be good to push people out of the paint

    Full out Moreyball. I'm actually excited about it.

    Beverley / Canaan / Johnson
    Harden / Daniels
    Ariza / Papanikolaou
    TJones / DMo
    Howard / Dorsey

    Wouldn't be surprised if Llull was the next chip to fall.
