    Another stupid move by the stupidest team in professional sports, and another gift to the Spurs.

    What the hell...

    Ray McCallum can play. I shudder to think how good he will be with the Spurs...

    Morey really missing out on the guards this year, hope he has a deal in the making, otherwise all of this would suck.

    I don't get it either. But when have the Kings ever made sense.

    Surprised we didn't jump in on this. We need a point and Morey usually trades with the Kings once a year.

    I think their logic was that since they have Collison on contract for 2 more years, they didn't need Ray. They should've traded him at the trade deadline if that was the case. He's a good young PG

    Wasn't he on rookie deal? They didn't need to trade him I watched him couple of times and think he contribute for the Spurs.

    And this one only cost the Spurs a future 2nd rounder. What the hell is Morey doing?! We're missing out on every PG in the league when the only one we currently have on the roster is Bev. Someone please wake up the Rockets front office.

    I dunno, I don't think McCallum is that good....

    Struggles shooting the ball, will be their 3rd stringer I suppose?
    Not really a BOOM move is it?

    Not a boom move but clearly worth a late 2nd rounder. Kings are dumb.

    Now for everyone to pretend that this streaky shooting awful defender is an amazing player simply because the Spurs picked him up....

    He's not an excellent player right now, but he's talented and will definitely benefit from being on a much better team with great mentorship. There's no reason why he can't be a solid back up for them this year, which is what they needed, at a cheap price.

    Why do the Spurs keep getting it right? Thats ridiculous value for a late 2nd rounder.

    We are looking at the fact that they only used a late 2nd round pick to acquire a guy that adds depth and might be a very solid backup. No one here said he's an amazing player, read the thread again.

    Confirmation bias, also called myside bias, is the tendency to search for, interpret, favor, and recall information in a way that confirms one's beliefs or hypotheses. It is a type of cognitive bias and a systematic error of inductive reasoning.
