Dumars also completely destroyed the Pistons too... remember Charlie V and Ben Gordon’s contracts? Trading Billups for Iverson, signing Josh Smith... was a pretty awful drafter too.

Like most GMs, he had successes and failures. Neil has given us failure and one sorta near miss. I don't recall him winning any rings with the Clips either.

By the only OBJECTIVE measure - on court success - Dumars is better than the majority of current GMs.

Won.
A.
Championship.

That outweighs everything you said.

Olshey can destroy our team for a couple years if he brings us to 6 straight WCFs and wins a chip in my opinion.

Also, the second half was part of a rebuild to try and remain relevant, which failed, but he still won a chip.

He has more proven success than most in this league.

Even mentioning IT in the same league is kind of dumbfounding.
 
What the hell are Suns doing?

All their moves look ridiculously dumb:

  • Trading down to take Cam Johnson at 11 (probably wouldn’t have gone before 20 anyway, and at 24 doesn’t project to be more than a decent rotation wing) and expiring Dario Saric
  • Trading up to get Ty Jerome, yet another project guard to bury with Okobo and Melton
  • Giving away a decent no. 32 to move TJ Warren, who wasn’t even that bad of a contract, to open up cap space they will probably not be able to do much with anyway, and then absorbing Aron Baynes to get Jerome anyway which makes it almost a moot point
Ridiculous. It’s like they are trying to sabotage themselves.

Im glad that Im not the only one confused...
 
So you go from having:

  • White/Culver
  • Warren
  • Okpala/Edwards - lets say they draft Okpala if they take White and Edwards if they take Culver
  • 2020 Bucks pick
To having:

  • Cameron Johnson
  • Dario Saric
  • Ty Jerome
  • Aron Baynes
  • $5million extra space
How the hell are they better off? Warren is basically equal to Saric, both good scorers, both below average defenders.

This is idiotic unless they know they are getting Russell. And apparently they are not.

The interesting thing is NONE of it does much for me... Talking about a team that deals in the mediocrity...

It was broadcasted during Nurk's Fts of that game, which was on new years. So you randomly pop up in the highlights of that game

Ah it was from our broadcast. I’m sure when I was on, it was the highest rated segment of the night.

HCP is Mexican, so like a giant pinata you have to smack him a couple of times with a stick before he pops.
 
It would be so awesome if Kawhi was so cheap that even with 100s of millions he went to the store to buy his own moving boxes.
