    Yep. Don't think the timing of this is a coincidence, perhaps for both Dragic and Smith.

    Not sure how good a coach he is, but I completely agree with you that this extension sends a message of stability to not only potential additions to the team, but also to the key members of the team. Seem to remember that Dwight appeared to have a somewhat lukewarm response to the recent trade that resulted in the loss of Daniels and Garcia.

    Don't like the move. Would have waited until after playoffs. Still have my doubts about McHale's coaching in playoffs.

    I know for sure that Morey will provide him of a championship roster. Time will tell if he is a championship coach, or if this decision was the biggest and indelible mistake of Morey's career.

    This somehow sounds worse when it's rendered in Twitterspeak.

    Why would he get fired? He is doing exactly what Morey wants. That's why I said, as long as Morey is here, this team is not going anywhere.

    My feelings exactly. I hope that Les consulted with Daryl before the move.

    In all fairness, though, he does appear to be getting the job done this year, surrounded by the right people (Bickerstaff on defense, for example).

    haha, you are funny. Look at the roster we have and you want Morey fired? I really dont understand how some poeple come to that conclusion.

    Y'all think our offense would have more structure if Morey wasn't the GM but McHale was still the HC?
