    Well, tbf, Cavs and Sixers tanked for years and had great assets to trade, Ainge robbed Brooklyn with a trade that will never happen again, Raptors have one and a half star so, not different than what we have. The fact that we're so close to have a third star without tanking actually shows how good our front office has been.

    How is it that every other contender has set themselves up able to make trades and offers but we're the only team that has nothing to offer except a bunch of useless 1sts?

    ***** depressing

    We aren't actually close to having a third star though? I get the rest of your post.

    Morey was 22 in '94 and probably still at Northwestern. You can't lay the blame for CD's entire tenure at his feet.

    Why does it seem that teams pull off trades like this so effortlessly but for us it's like moving a mountain? First with butler and now this.

    I wonder if some of these fans would last a day at my kid's daycare by the way they're always crying. Like get off of mom's teat from time to time.

    Because they fear being like Presti on the Harden trade. Morey will crossover and they don't want to tumble all over the media as Morey stares you down, licking his lips before he nails the shot.

    During Morey's tenure the Mavs have accomplished more. Who is there GM btw?

    I mean, we were in the mix with Bosh, LMA, Butler, George...at least with Bosh we were very close, probably not that far with Butler...for one reason or another couldn't get them but eh.

    KP plans on signing the qualifying offer. He must have a team in mind he wants to go to.

    We weren't really in the mix for LMA or Paul George and it's debatable whether we were in the mix for Butler. I mean we made an offer for Butler but the TWolves never came close to accepting it. Bosh you are right. That was painfully close.

    Oh God. This is brutal. Nick has two connections; Lebron and the Rockets. Anthony Davis to the Lakers ffs
