“Billy, this is Daryl Morey. He’s one of the most influential GMs in recent NBA history. His defect is that he thinks it’s still 2016.”

  1. Lol poor Daryl.

    Backup 5, 2-way wing depth is all we need to go all the way but. Still think PJW and McDaniels from Charlotte could just about be all we need, but the price for them is probably gonna be more than we can afford or put together unfortunately.

    Please trade for PlumDog Millionaire

  3. brokenoreo

    and he’s done a great job building our roster

    The man isn’t infallible but he turned shit into something palatable, even in the worst cases.

    Morey absolute nails the huge moves which is what you need from your GM. Someone to not make big mistakes. He’s not perfect. The book is not written yet on Tucker, Melton, House. We have to see how they do in the playoffs. The playoffs are a mini season to themselves.

    Sorry in advance, I know this is gonna be very ranty and unnecessarily aggressive, but I swear some Philly fans are the worst kind of “what have you done lately”

    This man SAVED Philadelphia basketball. Saved Embiid’s prime. And built a competitive team with so many handicaps you’d think they’d legally have to put his parking spot inside the building.

    But lord forbid he signed a few bench pieces that haven’t worked out well…with money we wouldn’t have had in the first place without him and Harden

  7. Do most people not even remember what this team was like two fucking years ago?

    This man single handedly saved this teams future on a single draft night… He’s not perfect and some decisions will not be in his favor but overall this man has been largely positive for us.

    Are you joking? This man has made the absolute best out of this roster. We arguably have the most complete roster in the league

    He dumped the shitass horford contract that the idiots before him left for him. Also dumped Ben Simmons and traded Seth Curry for James Harden, managing to finesse a rival team and a top contender in the same division.

    But I agree he does live in 2018 sometimes and just can’t let go of those rockets teams

  10. He really hasn’t done shit but trade for Melton. Any GM would have got Harden for Ben. Harden wanted Sixers and Ben was the move.

    PJ sucks. House sucks. Trez ehhh, can’t play postseasonp

  11. This team has been one of the hottest teams in the league the past few weeks. Playing some of the best basketball of Embiid’s career here in Philly, yet this sub is still full of a bunch of cry babies who can’t enjoy anything because we lost a random game in January to the Magic.

    All I know is I’m having fun watching this team, which is something I couldn’t say the last few years. I don’t know if they’re going to win it all or even make it to the finals, but what’s the point of watching sports if you can’t find any enjoyment in it?

    So, maybe this is as good a place to clear this up as any, but why does everyone refer to Morey as GM when that’s Elton Brand’s title??
