    I just want to say unlike other GMs Morey is a bit more open yes but think about it has anything he said or moves made not been a surprise? So while he is open he keeps his true moves/motives pretty close to the chest.

    Really the Bosh campaign and the Gortat campaign were really the only two well this is what we're doing and they both failed.


    Most of the moves the last few years:

    Ariza trade out of the blue
    McGrady trade - we knew he was going to be traded but the final trade was also out of the blue bringing in the Kings and getting Kevin Martin
    Lowry trade
    Artest Trade
    Scola trade


    Pretty much every trade he has made was out of left field, signings are completely different story as during the FA period agents and players themselves always leak out info as to what teams contacted them.


    If the Rockets do make a trade for Melo it wont be just out of left field of course a star like melo will have plenty of people leaking info around him.

    morey is reinventing what it is to be an NBA GM.

    chubby, well-dressed, hip (twitter), boy next door/nerdy, and very seductive.

    You know when a GM is popular when people start talking about how he just raped the other team.

    My favorite line i saw in 1 post is, whats the best defense against DM? "Don't have a GM" in reference to Denver.

    I'm pretty sure imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

    The international stage provides quite a bit of visibility for Melo. Asia is not slacking in the department of population. If my memory serves me correct, Asia is the most populated continent on the world. With Yao by his side, being a Rocket addresses the concern of visibility and championship contention.

    The point that needs to be made without me reading this thread is that the Knicks suck. Seriously.

    This. Maybe he is so sick of watching his trash of a team that he needs to bash some other to make him feel good.

    He may also be so afflicted with the ineptness of Isiah that he does not know what competence is anymore.

    And the prize for hater of the year....

    Even with Amare does anyone think that the Knicks will make the playoffs? They're still a fringe team imo.

    Actually the Knicks are a joke as is, and will be fortunate just to make the playoffs this year.


    Clear enough cap space to sign lebron + another star....

    End up with Amare Stoudemire.

    U mad.

    Never thought I'd see the day where a NY fan is jealous of the media attention Houston is getting. ;o

    Stopped reading after this. Interwbz blogs have allowed every ignorant idiot with a keyboard to think they're an actual writer.

    What's awesome is with the time I saved by not reading that garbage I'm gonna go watch the 94 finals.

    The Knicks will be fortunate to win 40 games with Amare Stoudemire!
