Paul George briefly talks about Gm reputations including Morey’s with harden
Yea he’s not coming here, not that I wanted his ass here but my god morey’s reputation problems legit might doom us even more, nobody wants to play for this guy. Good job daryl
Feels like morey lives under a rock has never understood the game of basketball at all. Listen to Kevin McHale’s thoughts on him. A guy who James harden hates but they share 2 things a like. Both HOFers and hate morey

I don’t think PG intends to leave LA anyways.

ah well
LordLucasSixers
PG and Harden are teammates
Yall think he coming here? lol Harden told him everything
enRutus
Harden didn’t deserve that kinda money. PG knows this
TerminallyTrill
Hmmm what do you think he values more… a GM or fifty million dollars
Thegrandmistressofoz
Lol PGs getting a guaranteed deal, this is a different scenario
Same dudes who were ready to shit on Morey had he given Harden 40+M/year last offseason, now shitting on him for not doing it

They didn’t say anything at all

Reminds me of Danny on the Ricky on this. Saying Morey has a rep
…as someone who signed with Morey…TWICE
I don’t care what you say, I care about what you do

Just saying that to cover Joel’s sneaky eyes from a tampering charge🤫

I highly doubt this would matter because he’d be getting his contract up front from the team. It’s not like there would be any uncertainly on his role or his money.
The worst we’ve heard about Morey is that he’s traded people after saying he wasn’t going to (which I’m sure has happened with most GMs) and the Harden stuff. With the Harden situation, that’s just not enough to go by. Anyone that genuinely believes he was promised a max deal in some sort of back room deal clearly wasn’t paying attention to his last year here. Since some people need a reminder..
* Harden leaks the Houston info on Christmas day, when he and the team were playing their best ball of the Harden tenure and were considered a top 5 team and legit contender. If there was any time when Harden may have realized a supposedly agreed on max deal wasn’t coming, it wouldn’t have been at the literal height of the Harden era.
* Harden hires an agent a few weeks later for the first time since the last time he had a contract that could be negotiated (true max deals aren’t negotiated)
Now why would he do any of that if he had a deal in place? If Morey is a liar, then wouldn’t that be insanely hypocritical of Harden to even explore other teams? Why would he randomly bring in an agent if he already had a deal?
Harden is just on a long list of players that have trouble admitting that they aren’t the same player anymore. Harden is good for about a half season these days, especially when he’s playing the distributor role. As the year goes on though, his body gives out. Also, he typically tries to play more Houston James ball later in the year, which doesn’t go well. We’ve now seen this for 3 straight seasons.
Lastly, if you’re looking or a backroom deal that took place, look no further than the Mitchell & Ness purchase by Fanatics and a group of players, including Harden. This deal went down 2 days after the sale of Rubin’s Sixers team shares closed and the the investment amount of each party was kept confidential. There’s a much better chance that Harden was paid back from the team discount he gave us on this deal than any promises from Morey.

He’ll come here if we are offering him the most money (whether in years or annually) and he won’t if we’re not or if there’s a tie with us and the Clippers.
You really think PG is going to turn down like $20 million dollars or whatever it is? He’s not going to. This is a dumb Ricky-created controversy that isn’t real. (Seriously Mike Levin is indistinguishable from a WIP caller at this point. His analysis is so bad now because he’s so in his feelings.)
