    Highly doubtful, the Jazz have a long history with their GM and Riley is the real king of South Beach. Riley might move over for Morey since Riley is also a part owner, but Morey would report to him.

    LOL c'mon now. Kahn is definitely the WORST GM in the league hands down. The article's snippet on Kahn didn't make any sense....building around Rubio? Really? Didn't they just sign Luke Ridnour? Unless they managed to move Sessions, they already have 3 pgs on the roster....how the hell is that building around Rubio?

    THey also drafted like 5 forwards in the draft, and traded Al Jefferson for peanuts to the Jazz. Don't get me wrong, I think their lineup next season will be decent with Flynn, Darko, Love, Webster and Wesley, however the amount of assets Kahn si squandering for no reason whatsoever is mind-boggling. They could have traded Jefferson for somehthing much better than just 2 picks, not to mention passing on cousins over Wesley Johnson. The irony is despite overloading on one position, looks like Kahn missed out again. Last season he missed out on Jennings and Curry, now he missed out on Paul George. Honestly I don't know why he still has a job.


    Best GM in the league is Buford, followed by Morey and Riley.

    Would you live there? I wouldn't and I'm white. Perhaps "market" isn't the appropriate word. But it isn't an easy place to talk black athletes into moving to.

    Morey has continually gotten respect outside of Houston.

    I would have never thought of the Jazz, but looking back I have to admit he definitely deserves consideration.

    Morey is first in my book. By the way, I'm a long time reader but just created my account. How do I add rep to people? I'll rep the first person who answers. Thanks. Btw, he's always with us.

    You have to have a certain amount of reps yourself to rep others, and I'm not for certain if rookies can.

    Morey deserves some RESPECT!.. and this is pretty good, looking at the other GMs AND considering its only his 5th year..

    Okay smart guy - without looking it up, do you even know who the GM was that built those Houston championship teams?


    I doubt you do.

    Riley may be ahead of Morey in the list, but Houston still wins because with their first ever franchise pick of the 1967 draft, the San Diego Rockets selected a young SG named Pat Riley out of Kentucky.

    Well, whether not Kevin O'Conner is #1 GM is questionable, but your list of GM is more of a joke than the site's :eek:

    What I don't understand is why Morey is so well-loved, and Danny Ferry is out of a job. Ferry has gotten his team to the finals and 2 60+ win teams. He is obviously 10x the GM that Morey is.

    Les needs to fire Morey and hire Ferry. Why he feels otherwise is beyond me.

    Before people, like me, and pretty much everyone else starts debating... please tell us if this is just a joke or sarcasm, or you're actually serious... :confused:
