    Which is the priority: guaranteed resigning of Parsons or getting a 3rd star?

    What was happening behind the scenes with the Gasol/CP3/Scola/Martin trade?

    I would def ask him about the Pau Gasol trade that Stern nixed. What was the big picture for that blueprint?

    I would ask Morey if I could work on his staff for free for 6 weeks so that I could learn from a seriously good NBA statistical team. It would be fascinating.

    He would never be able to answer this, but I would ask him what potential trade that he turned down, does he wish he would have made now?

    Like maybe a T-Mac for Billups trade? Something for Kevin Love back when Minny didn't know what they had? I'd love to hear about that.

    I'd ask Morey two questions....

    1. Does J.B. Bickerstaff actually bicker with the rest of the Rox' coaching staff?

    2. If the "layups and threes" offense gets shut down again in the postseason, would it be a good idea to incorporate some midrange shooting in the offense?

    Can you use weapons?

    Without weapons, it would have to be 100 duck-sized horses. You'd be able to kick them and stomp on them at least.

    Why did Yankee Doodle name the feather in his hat "macaroni"?

    My question would be a toss up between two, that really fascinate me..

    1. What made you offer the money to Lin over the dragic player option? Since Kyle was traded mainly because he clashed with coach I don't think we can consider him as part of that tandem.

    And before lof's start with the backlash, I like Jeremy, but Gogi is clearly better.

    2. How much are you willing to pay parsons?

    The answer to the first question is the summer of 2015 and salary cap available. I doubt the second question is answerable at this juncture.

    Here, I'll answer the 2nd question for you.

    No, we just have to find more innovative and creative ways to free up shooters and cuts to the basket, in the half-court. Right now, we have 2 plays; ISO Harden and post up Dwight. We would have to develop more of a playbook with the end goal being a 3pter or a layup. bye!

    Which four NBA players, past or present, would be on your Mt. Rushmore?

    Did you ever attempt to trade Yao or TMac and get rejected by Alexander.?

    For the sake of a clutchfans debate I'd ask him what factors went in to deciding to have Lin come off the bench, including the statistics they use in these types of decisions.

    How could you let Dragic walk and then sign Lin for more? Doesn't make sense then or now?
