Looks like Simmons decided to hit back: @dmorey - I am glad you finished paying off Friday night's refs and had time to start tweeting again. To which Clutch decided to get in on the action with: The 16-11 #Rockets. RT @sportsguy33 @dmorey seems awfully defensive about his Rockets. Its going to be awkward when I pick them to go 14-68. Good times, good times... =P
Morey is classy according to most. I see him as a professional, proficient, detailed. Good at his profession. Though I think in Carroll Dawson is way more what classy is. Morey is personable, he's cool. But being in the Bill Simmons circle and Twitter exchanges with him doesnt make me view him like Jerry West, or like Hubie Brown type class. And he probably doesnt want to be, nor needs to be.
He said something last night (It was late and I forgot) that was pretty cold to Richard Justice, I refreshed like 5 mins later and he must have deleted it :grin: ....If only I could remember what he said (He mentioned Al Gore though /random)
i love how Morey is willing to stick up for his players... he makes some pretty good comments to those so called writers.
I am guessing it's Jerome Solomon, who recentlly talked about how Ariza shouldn't be allowed to shoot.
Justice had said something in response to Morey calling out his buddy Bill Simmons about Tyreke Evans. I don't know if he knew they where kidding around or just tried to join in the conversation, I wish I could remember but it was deleted a few minutes later. Side note - Justice had twittered that the Rockets had pulled a Texans and choked up the Dallas game and didn't deserve to win in OT then about 20 minutes later when it was clear the Rox would beat the Mavs, Justice deleted the tweet.
Morey is not that kind of "class." He represents the younger generation of executives. Brass, witty. He is "classy" in the sense that he is not overly abrasive or arrogant like a lot of people in his generation.
From DMorey's twitter... dmorey Big gm for the D.DAL missed shots but we made it hard.We have played well in close gms but in 2010 let's pls have bigger leads so I see 2011
WOW...is this a shot at Cuban??? dmorey @LanceZierlein sounds great, 1st I need to submit a few clips to NBA...I am on the road so can't join. What a W! AB/SB with shots of the yr
i wouldnt say it's a shot at cuban, i think teams tend to do that more than fans realize, by that i mean send tapes to the league of bad calls and things like that. cuban just likes to make a big fuss about it and probably complains more.
yep, I'd absolutely take whoever the scout is to dinner. Stevie is it you? I never get to talk Rockets with people around here.
DM with harsh words tonight... dmorey Bad outing.Lucky to be in gm&luck in close gms this yr had to turn.Out of norm shooting kept us in it,need to build leads when that happens
Is it really necessary to fit all that into one "tweet"? Why can't he just type his thoughts out into multiple tweets?
