Y'all think every GM is overrated, I don't wanna hear that **** lol.

Like Houston's? Absolutely.

Presti has a weird im not gonna retain anybody not named KD or Westbrook thing going on.

It's like he has a bi polar reaction to other players..the GM version of the save me hero ball coaches.

Not just Houston, all 30 of em.

But then folks will gas up the GMs who take teams from crap to respectable and then when they can't go any further, then said GM that was gassed up in the first few years is now overrated.

I can't think of a GM who y'all didn't think was overrated.

I give you Doc though lol

True stuff from Michael Lee of Yahoo Sports

Keep this in mind with free agency: Don't ask if a guy is worth the max. Real Q is if a guy is franchise player. You already KNOW the answer

Max contracts have lost their meaning, since they're based mostly on the market & team's willingness to overpay. Franchise guys are obvious

Just trying to set y'all up, because these contracts this summer will blow your mind. But this isn't crazy. It's the reality. TV $$ is nice

THANK YOU

That's really the only GM I talk about, and he's really a faux GM. Took the job in a coup de etat when the team had no owner.

Guy is a piece of work, and he is awful... kinda like Billy King

Which is why I don't get Durant wanting to meet with them in the first place.

Evan Turner News

Sean Deveney of the Sporting News reports that the Lakers are among several teams “preparing to bid for Turner” and he could be an interesting signing for the right price. In addition to being the third player taken with the second overall pick on the Lakers’ roster (clearly a market inefficiency Los Angeles could exploit), Turner would bring another playmaker to a team sorely lacking in that department.

Phones be like "Hi, you've reached Kevin Durant. I'm sorry I can't get to the phone right now but if you leave your name and number, I'll get back to you as soon as possible"

What I don't get is why he met with OKC first, then getting word out that he aint leaving, but meeting with these teams anyway.

Probably stealth spying to see what their plans are to run back and tell Presti.
