I'm so used to reading Trill's shyt that I expect nothing short of brilliance.

I tweeted this shyt out to the dude he said Morey had bigger plans.

@Walt please write an article on Chris Paul. Perception vs Reality and why dribbling ballhogs never win when it matters.

Someone needs to post this on Cluthfans for the pure fukkery (prepared to be promptly banned from the site )

I just submitted a thread - its waiting on approval from a moderator

Lets see if they are willing to post it

This dude really went out and signed Joey Dorsey the day @Walt said he makes moves just for the fukk of it, and gets celebrated.

And follows it up with the statement saying We've been watching Joey since he left, and he's become one of the best defenders in Europe

I have it on good authority that bomani is on here

Always knew that nikka was lurking

Tell him to give a shoutout to the coli already

Great read breh

Bout time someone called out Morey's free pass from any criticism. He could sign a bum like Marquis Teague to a max contract today and the media would spin that into the best move of the summer.

close examination of Morey’s signings and trades raises as much skepticism as reason for praise: when the Rockets were forward-heavy and in need of a point guard, he traded Kyle Lowry and let Goran Dragic leave, only to replace them with an overpaid Jeremy Lin — a player the Rockets had on their roster the season before, at league minimum salary, before they waived him. He traded Nicolas Batum — a do-it-all small forward who might be an even better piece on a title contender than Parsons — for Joey Dorsey and a draft pick that became Sam Young. He overpaid the offensively limited Omer Asik, then gave max money to Dwight Howard, whose presence made Asik redundant. He wasted a mid-first-round draft pick on Royce White, a red-flagged prospect who provided Houston more headaches off the court than minutes on it. He has boasted about advanced strategy while employing a coach who is known more as a player favorite than a tactician. Houston’s supposedly revolutionary offense of driving and shooting 3s has often looked disorganized and short-sighted down the stretch in playoff games.
