Yes.

In fact bring him in under any title before Dec. 15. We need that kind of talent scouting and vision.

Rainman, Do you understand beyond CP3 what cards presti holds to rebuild the last few years after trading Westrook and George? By some accounts what he got for George alone has been hailed as one of the greatest hauls in history!!!!

Kind of mixed feelings

On the one hand, he certainly did well with some of the higher draft picks he had, but the notion he had 3 MVP-types on the same team and came up with no championships, and lost 2 way under value????

Good GM is very strong card... But you need other resources to be lined up.
We still have no bankroll to play mid-stakes...
Why you want to spend on high-roller?

Presti was doing this in OKC! I mean he had none of the fiscal gravitas of Dolan or NYC backing his decisions. Harden would not have gotten traded in NYC because of fiscal constraints.

The MSM is just teasing us I'm sure but having Presti onboard would be amazing.

This. Mixed feelings about Hinkie but moving on from Mills would be a positive if Hinkie moved into that spot.

Perry hasn't done anything to warrant getting fired. He has done everything most of us has been asking for: He's drafted well, found a gem in the 2nd round and an undrafted player, cleared the cap of bad salaries, collected some draft picks, hasn't traded any draft picks and is actually rebuilding. What am I missing here? He needs to be replaced because some of us don't like Fiz?

Perry worked in Seattle when Presti was there. Not sure that means a damn thing.
Seattle under current owner tanked for two reasons. To justify its exile to OKC that was swimming in Fracking money then. It also was able to set up its run built thru the draft. Have to go back and look a the cap and how do you pay three max players whom together we’re flawed. Who in the world thought a marriage of Harden and MDA would think the bearded one was really this good?.
If Morey had an inkling to this it was genius. Rockets are good and have been. They mortgage the future but still keep it going. THe Rockets the last 10 years would have been great in NYC. Minimum rebuilding, lots of starphuching with bitter endings but relevant.
Review Hinkies tenure and understand not the aftermath of the exam in its current form but how it got here. Dolan could not sustain the hits they took. The fans would revolt.
