Lol, I live in deep west philly so mine thought my 'OH SH**!' was about our car getting set on fire. For real.

(PS: don't buy the hype about what's been going on here, there's been a few stores broken into and some pissed off activists confronting cops. Aint something to set off 5-alarm backlash about.)

Yes Embid because Simmons is a lost cause. Not all 5 guys on the court has to be able to space the floor but atleast minimum of 4 must be above average shooter. Embid needs to up his 3pt% to like 36% on higher volume to make everything work.

Either way, everything goes through Morey now. Which is amazing and an absolute 180° from where this offseason started. It seems to me they are going to shake up the roster something fierce.

Also it is good to see ownership ponying up the cash when it counts. Makes me believe they won’t just dump salary.


I assume Brand stays, and has to do the crap work.


Couldn't be a better situation for Elton Brand. Now he gets to learn the job from the master. If he's smart, he's excited about this move also. I bet he is.

Josh Harris is the most malleable owner in the NBA. I don't get the hate he gets. This is an incredible and expensive acquisition. As was Doc Rivers and all the other coaching staff additions.

Never would have happened. After an extensive and unbiased search, former Exec of the Year Bryan Colangelo, aka BCB, was clearly the best candidate.

He got hate because he made all the wrong moves for 4 years. Now that he's making the right moves this offseason, he's getting praised.

Just saw this news. Whaaat? We brought Doc Rivers, Darryl Morrey, Sam Cassel and Dave Joerger to our coaching staff and FO. And it ain't even free agency yet?
I think the management just showed that they are not afraid to invest and that they want chips!

If these guys don't hold our players accountable, I don't know who will!

I don't know if Morrey will have this power, but imagine him firing Elton and hiring Hinkie! That would be a full circle. :D

I didn't expect this to actually happen - I guess Morey is respected enough for Harris to give him the reigns. Hopefully now the slow death of a thousand bad trades will come to an end.

I didn't even consider it, thought it was a pipe dream. I'm still ecstatic. I started worrying that he might not have full power, but that's just silly. This guy could have had so many different jobs. We finally have leadership between him and Doc.

Obviously it solves our biggest problem which was the terrible FO. Morey is a good GM and that's probably the most important, other than having an all time great player on the roster, thing in winning a title. Still there are good GMs that havent won for years or not at all.

I am interested to see what moves he makes and how much he is going to change the roster.

What's the over/under on trades made by Morey this year?
