    i think we mostly agree (not all the way). i'm just saying that batting 1.000 doesn't happen. the gms everyone loves bat pretty close to where we do; they just have a LOT more forgiveness from fans and media. no way we'd put up with okc style rebuilds, imo.

    houston's got a good, fun team now, but they had to be terrible to get there, and some of the draft picks they stockpiled on the way down are already out of the league, jhs-style. this stuff just happens.

    the huge mistakes were russ and caruso. pretty much everything else is forgivable for me. even the dreaded vet min player options.

    I see. So Walker, who's literally out of the league right now and played 17mpg in the deep and competitive Brooklyn Nets last year is better than Prince and Max?
    He was also cut instead of Scheierman, Springer and Walsh. C'mon man...

    I agree with you on the MLEs partially, not on renewals as Abeer stated. On MLEs he got Green, that was a great move, even more because we were waiting on Kawhi. Prince was NOT a bad signing at the BAE. He's great for 20mpg and we do miss him. We were just unlucky that Ham saw him like a superstar.
    And Gabe looked like a good get at the time, he played great in the Finals. For some reason he looked terrible with us. But he has like 16 games for us, I'm still hoping he's better than what he's showing

    I'm with Abeer on this one too

    learning to manage sounds like advice for Pelinka.....this is the Lakers he should be held to higher standards saying...as you stated Hou had to suck to get this fun team, the difference they didnt suck with 2 SuperMax star on the team in order to get to where they are today. If you're saying this team needs to suck then why bring bron back and not shop AD at the same time?
