    Morey is the wizard of the NBA.

    His talent evaluation can be criticized every now and then, although I would say he's still been one of the top 5 in that category.

    but he is the best salary cap guy the NBA has ever seen. He knows every loop hole and knows how to work the system.

    In the next collective bargaining agreement they will outlaw some of this in sure and it will be named the Morey rule lol.

    This guy is hands down one of the best GMs in the league and it's moved like this among the many others that keep stars interstated in coming here.

    Morey just makes stuff happen.

    Win 55 games cool I'm going to bring in cp3 and another star and then extend Capela and then he's the new trade asset this guy in pure gold man.

    I think Cowherd was somewhat correct - now that Morey has a new contract, he can take risks without job security coming into question.

    He can still get fired. Remember McHale? Granted Morey is one of the best GM's in the league while McHale is a mediocre coach at best, but still... anything can happen.

    The roster will churn, but my Daryl Morey jersey will always be relevant.

    Wow - I am not much of a person that gives two craps for cap manipulation or follow along with it, I just want the team to win, and don't care if it costs Les 100M a year to do it.

    However, this is a MASTER STROKE move by Morey - big respect for this......

    This is a man doing INCREDIBLE work here......and something even someone like me can appreciate.

    Hats off to you DM - you are doing an amazing job.
