    Signing Durant was a worse move than Signing DFS.

    well they didn't sign him; they traded for him. The problem is they all clapped after that then sat on their hands the whole season after that

    You are lost if you think Morey made a lot of bad moves. Westbrook trade was Tilman, not Morey. It's probably the reason Morey left. Tilman has said he thought that CP3 extension Morey gave made CP the worst contract in the league.

    Morey wanted CP3 for years. You truly don't know what you are talking about.

    Absolute zero on both ends. Not getting at least 10ppg from a guy making this much is killing us.

    We havent drafted 5 yrs in a row prior to the WB trade. Those picks all spent on vets like Skip to my lou and Ty Lawson who werent effective.

    Yeah Morey wanted Cp3 for years and he traded for him midseason when he could have signed him in the offseason, costing us assets like Skip to my Lou, PatBev and Montrezl Harrell when those guys could have been flipped for more assets. He maxxed Cp3 anyway so what was the point of trading for him? If he wanted Cp3 around maybe he shouldnt have scapegoated Melo, ever thought of that? Also, Cp3 alleged Morey lied to his face, told him he wasnt being traded and then traded him anyway. You are right, Fertita and Harden wanted him gone but I thought Morey was the great GM here not a yes man like Stone? Morey btw told Fertita he wanted to be with his kids and then became Sixers GM a couple months later. What a liar lmao.

    Everyone is angry about the KD files, Morey is literally the bad vibes guy. Players said they felt like assets not people under Morey, and several players publicly called him out for lying to them like Dwight, Melon, Lin and even Cp3. We had so much turnover every year, Morey constantly wheeling and dealing for crap that didnt do anything. Remember when Morey picked baby Melo over Kawhi? And then shipped baby Melo for busts when we could have used a PF next to Harden? Morey literally had Lin, cut him, then had to pay him a lot to get him back. Same with Robert Covington and Christian Wood. We had RC, cut him, then had to trade Clint Capela to get him back. Capela averaged 15/14 in Atlanta, RC averaged 11/8 and got shipped out after 1 yr.

    Morey had all that capspace blew it all on Ryan Anderson and Eric Gordon. At least when Stone signs a guy, its an unguaranteed deal like FVV and DFS. If those guys suck we just cut them after 2 yrs no problem. What about Rybo? He so bad he cost us a frp and Melton to unload years later.


    I been here since YaoMac era bro, literally here the day Morey got hired by Les Alexander. I know more about him than most posters here. Morey was a great GM prior to the Harden trade, but after getting Harden he made tons of mistakes.

    lol ni way you serious

    Yeah trading for the 26 ppg almost 50/40/90 guy is the mistake here.

    I am sure we would be so much better with JG and DB SMH
