    Are we the only NBA team whose GM has a fan base?

    "Morey's cult followers" is a compliment to DM.

    Honestly, yeah, I think so, but I wouldn't describe it as a cult. Much of the Morey praise is more humorous than real. I think he's a great GM, but I think Les is the real mastermind for having the guts to hire him, and giving him the resources to do his job.

    Well, 'cults' does not only refer to religious cults. You have movies or TV shows which have developed a cult following, i.e. loyal fans.

    Anyone notice that Morey's hand doesn't look real? It actually looks computer generated.

    I can't achieve transcendence by myself. That would just make me some kind of a nut.

    They had to erase Donnie Walsh's beating heart that Daryl had ripped out of his chest.

    Pritchard's cult following in Portland is much bigger. Mainly because Portland basketball fans are much better than us(sad to say). And I assume Presti's following in OKC, another BBall-only town, would also be more than Morey's.
