    You can't blame FVV and DB on Stone. Those were Udoka guys. Lopez isn't really his fault either. Landale on the other hand...

    How could a sh*t hole city like OKC have such a better front office than us?

    Didn't he also want to extend Victor Oladipo the first time around?

    He did, and many here slurped his every move like he was the next Sam Presti.

    Always at the trade deadline, he always freeze up and say we like our guys. His first draft, he had 4 1st round picks and only hit on Sengun the others are BUSTS…STONE is too conservative and scared to be a good general manager. We need to trade for Mikal Bridges or sign Miles Bridges outright. We need another player who is talented to score 20 points a night and shoot efficiently, Both Bridges average 20 points per game and shoot efficient

    The Rockets are basically 13th ...the Grizzlies had bad luck but have won 20 games......when healthy are above the Rockets.

    Not sure you can give more than a D Minus for a 13th place after wasting 90 million of cap space.

    They don't.

    They just picked earlier when it counted most.


    They drafted a guy who can win MVP.

    We drafted a good 3D player.
