    Why? He's like Dwight...he thought he would be "the man" if he left for Dallas. When Blake and Paul was out, he couldn't do crap.

    He's a little bit better than Clint, but make a LOT MORE Than Clint. Why pay $20 millions more for a guy that just a bit better than Clint, but think he's the man and should get more touches???

    Sounds Familiar????? Yea, that dude just got dumped to Charlotte and the Hawks had to give up #31 pick to dump him

    With 2 years left at over 23M per does he move the needle enough?
    He certainly addresses the size and rebounding issues but those free throws :rolleyes:.
    I think the Rockets have more pressing needs.

    Won't happen

    Jerry West is afraid to trade against Morey.

    Notice the much anticipated Malik Badiane to Grizzlies for rights to Sergie Lishtouk did not happen until the first trade deadline after West left the Grizz in 2008. Not only did Lishtouk become a key component of many Morey trades since, but that opened up the communication lines with MEM which led to many others trades from lessor players like Lowry, to more blockbusters like Battier for Thabeet.

    But never once did Morey trade with GSW when West was there.

    I'm confused. Are you trying to substitute the % sign for chance because that is not what it means. It means percent.

    He went to Episcopal High School for a bit which is inside the loop. He was a year below me in high school. Super funny guy. Really likable. But, with that said, I like Clint. Guy can make free throws and totally embraces his role for a fraction of the pay.

    He's like Dwight but actually likes to do the things Dwight refused to do like roll to the basket?

    If the Rockets could add CO3, Blake and DJ and trade Lou Williams and PBev for Paul George and convince Gordon Hayward to sign... man... Warriors 4-0

    He is not like Dwight Howard. Howard carried his team to NBA final and carried this team to conference final. Deandre Jordan could not help his team out of second round with 2 other all stars.
    It all begins with Doc Rivers, and ends with Doc Rivers. Drama in LA.

    That's because Golden State is perfect - any trade accordingly makes them worse. They managed to swap Harrison Barnes for Kevin Durant last offseason without even having to trade

    Why would they play a spin of Morey Roulette - that's for the desperate Magic Johnsons and Vlade Divac's of the universe.

    It is known.

    No more Centers who can't hit 50% of their free throws.....and are unwilling to try to improve.
