    You've seen the suggestions that Morey has something up his sleeve. Well, okay, it was Morey himself who suggested it. What is Morey up to?

    A poll where all the options are great lmao. I'm going to get serious and say KD has started his own era in which you 100% need to form superteams in order to compete.

    Westbrook Harden Kawhi are going to be the top bachelors for top free agents looking to create these super teams so big moves/signings are almost guaranteed to happen. For the Rockets sake I dream of PG and Hayward choosing Houston

    Darryl Morey has two giant salamis up his sleeves. He calls them arms.

    Possible options for "Other" :

    a) Chris Bosh has agreed to sign for vet min to re-establish value and Morey found a doctor who will clear him to play sight unseen (talk about upping your risk factor, he could die...)

    b) Rockets will roll out crazy system that emphasizes winning by making more threes by taking threes anywhere inside half court and guarding only the three point line on the other side (and conceding layups).

    c) Durant secretly does want to play with Harden and has agreed to sign in Houston, thereby beating Golden State by making them weaker.

    Welp... I said cheeseburger in the original thread... so i'm gonna stand by that...

    and I went with the PPat option... cause I think that's the biggest fish Morey is gonna land - and really aint but a minnow...

    the rest is just lipservice is usual Morey-esque fashion... livin off a deal he swung 4+ years ago...

    Surprise.....it's another sleeve.

    Seldom is a sleeve more undervalued.

    Then..boom, you hit them: extra sleeve.

    Check and mate.

    Splash.

    Other. Signing Iggy....thus making the Warriors a mediocre mess.

    & Harden goes Suge Knight on Curry & dangles him over the balcony of a high rise building.
    Curry mysteriously misses the entire season because of a phantom injury.

    I think Morey is onto something, maybe gets one of them.

    Where did you all read 'I got aces up my sleeve' line?

    All I read is that the Rox will try to improve and catch up to GSW. That's about it.
