    I love how these kinds of threads always devolve into a place for Morey-bashers to strut around displaying their plumage. Sure, he and Les have almost miraculously built a team with the third-best record in the entire freakin' league, but...
    • Morey just sits there and doesn't make a single call while other GMs are burning up the phones.
    • It's all going to come crumbling down any minute because we're not good enough to have the record we have.
    • We need to make a move to compete this year, because not winning the title this year and then adding a major piece over the summer to gear up for next year would be completely unacceptable! It's all or nothing, RIGHT NOW!!!
    • Everyone would give us their stars for our end-of-the-bench guys and our first-round pick (#28 or so) in this summer's draft, if only Murray would get off his fat ass and DO SOMETHING!

    Great and well thought out response. You should definitely post more with expert insight like this.

    Let's replace Corey Brewer with Arron Afflalo. That would help immensely not only giving time to a more productive player, but giving us an insurance policy when Gordon is hurt/out. Not that Afflalo does what Gordon does very well, but he certainly is a much better option than Corey Freaking Brewer.

    Dude, you can watch soccer and still be interested in Basketball at the same time, including other sports.

    People said the same thing about Jason Terry once upon a time. You learn to get over this type of stuff.

    No firesale in Dallas so who knows on Bogut. Personally, I hope they stay on the mediocrity treadmill.

    If it's not Butler, George, or Hayward (still have my eye on this guy), you just tweak/strengthen your roster and wait for the right move. Adding depth at the C (Koufus), a usable pg (Shelvin Mack), or possibly replacing/upgrading Brewer. You don't have any weak positions then, just nothing exceptional outside of Harden, allows you to add that next star regardless of position.

    Bogut would ruin chemistry for us.

    Say no to the alt-right. One's already ruining the country, let's not bring one to ruin this team.

    Man, I'm all for having another big on this team, but Bogut always reminded me of Romo. Decent/good when healthy, key word being when and plus it seems like he whines all the time lol.

    Matt Barnes is not coming to Houston under any circumstances. Don't you remember the stuff he said to Harden's mom? Rockets aren't going to bring that chit into the locker room.
