5. Rubio

7. Amare
8. Melo
9. Roy
10. Durant

I feel fairly confident of my top 6. But after that I've got questions about who Morey really likes. I put Amare on there because of the alleged deal at the trade deadline that he would have supposedly done if Amare would have been willing to take a physical and/or agree to a contract extension.

Who do you say?

You can't be serious? He's not even a good Euroleague player. He's mediocre at BEST in Europe. I hope you are joking.

You could easily replace "Morey's" in the thread title with any other GM... the list would virtually be the same...

Sure, we all want LeBron, Wade, etc. But we aren't going to get them.

thread title should be: "Top 5 FA this summer" that is you put Bosh in 5, take away Rubio.

Also Morey has attention on Sergio Lull.

Think Morey makes a push for Steve Nash again? Phoenix could be ready to blow things up.

If both were elite, I'd agree. If you listen to Morey, however, the only constant this guy has in his philosophy is to acquire elite players when you can. He's said it over and over again - this league comes down to having All-Star talent, and it's why he's positioned himself so well with all these assets to make a run at a marquee free agent.

Durant is clearly one of the top five - and maybe the top three - players in the entire NBA. He's proven top of the line. Rubio is a prospect, and with that comes uncertainty. I think Durant is a slightly better player than Chris Paul, but could see an argument for potentially valuing Paul a slot ahead if you prioritize superior point guard play. But regardless of position, Daryl Morey would never turn down a known elite player (well, a young one at least) for a prospect. Proven All-Star talent, regardless of position, is always Morey's top priority, imo.

put the best product out on the court, and he's doing a great job IMO. we do need to get more "all-star" talent though.
