    Wow, just wow. We were desperate for anything that resembled a star at that time, now we have two superstars and are on the verge of title contention. Insane.

    Morey's a very smart GM who thinks several steps ahead, he's playing chess while many GM's have been playing checkers.

    If I had 1/10th of a penny for every time I heard that saying on Clutchfans. :p

    But yeah, it's been a long time coming for us fans. I remember when Morey was rallying for Marcin Gortat to join the Rockets a couple years back. Even last off-season when we were salivating at the thought of Eric Gordon in a Rockets uniform.

    Things are FINALLY swinging in our direction. And it's just the beginning. :)

    It has been only three years since the end of the Yao era, coupled with the anti tanking mandate I guess. Can't believe how impatient some posters were. Morey never had multiple top 5 draft picks like Presti, but now he's got two bonafide superstars. Face.

    Kelly Dwyer must be from the future. The last two paragraphs have become that much better since we somewhat know the ending now.

    This is one of the comments under the article, obviously a smug Laker fan:

    I wonder how he's feeling now. :p

    ye, great find there. It is actually the idiocy from top to bottom, which was displayed by both Jim Buss and this fan, drive a franchisd into the ground.

    GO *** YOURSELF LA!

    And how are the Raptors doing now? Just for kicks:

    bleacherreport - biggest-questions-the-toronto-raptors-must-answer-this-offseason
    Along with Colangelo, Casey and Lowry, the Raptors need to make a decision this offseason about Bargnani.
    Such decisions will allow Toronto to focus on organizing their roster and making improvements in anticipation of the 2013-14 season.

    Morey has been excellent but lets also thank Les for being patient and primed to spend.
