    If Morey is a genius, so is Carl. He's been supporting doing this exact thing for months in order to get Asik. I'm actually amazed that Carl and Morey were on the same brainwave (though I think Carl's proposal was 4 years)

    LOL wtf? I think the hate for Morey's has reached Lebron level on this board, to the point where his haters now defy all logic and reasoning. Yeah, DM's not a genius for getting Asik an offersheet that to quote Ford "Drove a mach truck through the current CBA loopholes". Any GM could have realized that loophole and offered that sheet to Asik. Just like how West is not a genius, anybody could have convinced Shaq to come to LA, and trade Divac for Kobe. Riley, a genius? C'mon, anybody could have helped Wade convince Lebron and Bosh to play together, genius? What about the Nelsons drafting Dirk and Nash in the same year? Pfft, any GM could have done those :rolleyes:

    Whoa nelly. Let's step back from the ledge and not compare Morey offering a poison pill contract to Asik with West getting Shaq, the Nelsons getting Dirk and Nash, etc.

    So Morey is exploiting a loophole in the Gilbert Arenas Rule. What are the chances our offer sheet is deemed invalid due to basketball reasons?

    LOL but he's right, any team could have signed Omer to that contract. lets see what happens this season with Asik as the starter. If he flops then we can add this to another long line of his mishaps

    So does that make Carl one of our Evil Geniuses?
