    Bottom line, we got a great player. Stern vetoed Lakers trade but didn’t put together Clippers deal. That was all Neil.

    People said good teams don’t get blown out but Toronto and GS have been blown out. Just pointing out that we shouldn’t overreact to losses. They happen to every team.

    Provide the quote. You're probably butchering what people are actually saying.

    So a trade 8 years ago and one trade in the past 4 years that worked out and that means he's a good GM? Yikes.

    The exact quote was “Good teams don’t get blown out.”

    Do you have to make lots of trades to be a good GM? To me, he did a masterful job of keeping us competitive when Aldridge, Wes, and Lopez left. Lots of little moves that made a big difference. Basically turned RHJ and Steve Blake into Nurkic and Collins.

    Yeah, or not sign Turner and Leonard to $28M a year contracts combined in the same off-season.

    What GOOD little move has he done since Aldridge left (3.5 years ago) other than Nurk?

    None.

    You're the only one that thinks he's done a good job in this entire forum.

    You should be a sports reporter or anchor somewhere. Neil would love you.

    No, he really didn't. He did veto the Laker deal. But there were still a couple dozen other GMs who could have put something together for Chris Paul.

    I believe it was said that 3 of the losses GS has had at home this year were by 20 or more points. Not the same dominant team they have been in the past.

    Almost. The quote was "Good teams dont lose by 40 and 30."

    As you wish.
