    All that b****in and complaining about how Morey has no idea what he's doing.

    You mean to tell me the keyboard warriors with nowhere near as much information to work with as the GM were wrong?

    Can't believe it.

    The perception of the average fan to medical staffs is hilarious.

    Remember when we were all clamoring for PHX's training staff because they supposedly found the fountain of youth. How is that working out for them this year? Oh right, a team marred by injuries and chemistry issues. Sounds a whole lot like us right now.

    nope...this was the first reply to the original OMax GARM thread about this, before Clutch created a new thread and merged the earlier Trade thread comments with OMax's thread comments.

    and this

    btw: thx for combining the comments from two threads Clutch, and providing a better title.

    If he does come back, what are the chances him and possibly Terry get bought out to avoid the luxury tax? Does it work that way?

    Lol what? Our doctors presented the evidence to Morey to make a decision to move DMo because they thought DMo would have continue to have issues.

    SVG had admitted that DMo will have occasional flare ups, now Detroit is figuring out if it was worth it to keep him with their own doctors.

    Those folks use their feelings to make evaluations. Teh feelz don't have much place in big business.

    Mauri kept telling us that the doctors have cleared him to play full contact basketball and that is why he is at RGV to get some game fitness

    Seems like there is a further issue here detected by the DET doctors and medical team

    Yeah, I agree. So far, my impression of Thornton is that he's a poor man's Mike James. If he's not hitting shots, he keeps shooting anyway, and doesn't bring much else to the table.

    The thing is how bad.

    If he's in much worse condition than reported, then that's absolutely misleading the other team.

    This is going to be a black eye on Morey's record. This is not good. It's really bad relationship wise, and it's kind of embarassing.

    So is the party line that we're hoping Morey got caught trying to pull a fast one on another team so that it looks like he tried to make a good trade and it'll be voided or is it that we hope that Morey made a bad trade so that it goes through?

    What JBB said in the past can apply to anyone on the team.

    It's hard for me to believe that for someone who played limited minutes can have that great of an impact on team chemistry.

    Things like busting plays and such can apply to others as well. He wasn't the only one doing that.

    It doesn't bother me if he comes back or not.

    I'm just happy everyone played hard last game and hope it continues.

    At this point, I'm not sure you even know what that means. It certainly wasn't a valid response to what I said. Thanks for trying I guess.
