    I'd love to snatch Tony Snell from them, see so many flashes with his game and think he'll be their next breakout player in one or two seasons.

    Butler/Parsons/Hayward/Leonard will be the new Dream Team.

    I guess in terms of talent DM missed out on Faried, Butler, Leonard etc. but then again considering these guys think they're the **** and demanding max money I think it's a blessing in disguise. Butler isn't even the best player on his team and he's demanding max money? Leonard won a finals MVP and he thinks he's a superstar, wait till he leaves the Spurs and he devolves into a poor man's Ariza.

    Faried's was the only pickup I thought DM missed out on, but then again with these bigs it's always hit or miss, kinda' hard to tell who would show the work ethic, health and bball IQ to succeed in the NBA in a sea of lower end prospects.

    No but if he wants to take Garcia's place on the bench as the guy who provides Locker Room Leadership we should give it to him. Dude should retire a Rocket.

    morey seems to have missed on players that had the raw tools

    morris and motie were skilled yet lacking in the physical departments


    now that hes drafted capela maybe thats a shift in draft philosophy.

    Are people sleeping on a 25 year old guy who is shooting 53% and 39% from 3 over 8 games when his career numbers are 43% and 31%? Butler is the one who's unconscious.

    Morey did not even get the blessing as you define it-- he drafted a guy that year who demanded and received the max and already left.
