    I knew our threads would rid of Rafer and sign Deke!

    Morey is probably a lurker with 2 posts

    I read through the summary pretty fast so maybe I'm missing something, but I'm pretty sure ESPN broadcast the game in which the Artest brawl versus the Pistons' fans took place. I seem to recall Breen and Walton doing the game, with that little impish-lookin' fool I dislike so much providing sideline analysis/interviews.

    Kinda lets you know the true feelings of the Rockets organization about how the Tracy situation doesn't it. I had no idea that Billy Simmons was in tight with D.Morey. :)

    It was nice that Morey, for a second, let his feelings be known about Tslack. I would love to hear what management says about him behind closed doors.

    If so you are a brave brave man posting an affirmative! LOL

    I tend to think an MIT grad would have more sense.

    Morey shouldn't read the message board.
    It's clear the board influences his thinking a bit.

    This was a fantastic interview! Thanks for posting the link. Nice to hear somebody interview Morey who knows a little basketball. The more I hear Morey, the more I love the guy. He's self deprecating. He's got a quick wit. He doesn't take his early success too seriously. He wants to help others who want to take his path. He just seems like a good guy. All that and he's one helluva GM!

    I know Morey is reading this:

    The Rafer trade was a good one. now bring us a superstar and rebuild from there.

    does Morey really believe that Parker and Ginobili are top 20 players? maybe top 20 guards and even then maybe. Parker is barely a top 10 PG, behind the likes of Paul, Deron Williams, Billups, Nash, a healthy Arenas, Baron Davis and of course Wade if he's classified as a PG as well as Iverson.

    Ginobili is at best a second tier SG behind Kobe, Pierce, Durant, Roy, Joe Johnson, Vince Carter, Rip Hamilton, Kevin Martin, and the aforementioned Wade and Iverson if they are classified as SGs. not to mention other good swingmen like Ray Allen, Michael Red, Andre Iguodala and Jason Richardson. and of course Ron Artest and T-Mac :D .

    I think he believes it, when they're healthy and the Spurs as a team are clicking.

    What makes you say this message board is clearly influencing his decision making?

    He clearly did not have anything to back his mouth up.


    Michechon, your mouth is writing checks your mind can't cash.

    talking about artest, simmons: "so, he's never shown up to practice covered in blood saying 'Don't ask'?" hilarious.

    "Artest loves guys who play hard..."

    So, it's set. Artest has got some beef with Tracy.

    Correct my correction if it's not correct, but I thought he said Yao loves people who plays hard...
