This is literally the first time I've heard " heliflopter."

And honestly.. it still applies more to ginobli than it ever will harden.

Why again are you on this rockets thread? As it.. as you said earlier.. because of good offseason talk?

Or was it to troll like you've always done?

Found this part of the article the most interesting:

quote:
But to what end? At what point does the constant activity and risk-taking have to pay off in tangible playoff success (or even modest playoff success) in order to validate itself? What makes Morey different from a man at a craps table who has been rolling for 3 straight hours, but is still just about even with the house?


As much as I, and other Rockets fans, feel that Morey has been one of the best GM's in the league at what point do you need to see success? You can make all the unbelievable trade rapes you want, but what happens when it doesn't equate to success on the court?

I still feel like Morey has put together an excellent squad by grabbing Harden (arguably the best SG) and Howard (arguably the best C), but eventually (without more than a 1st round exit) even the Morey-supporters like myself will start to grow weary of his capabilities....

@ESPNSteinLine: Nine teams, by my count, have enough cap space to put in post-amnesty bids for Carlos Boozer: ATL, CHA, HOU, LAL, MIL, ORL, PHI, PHX & UTAH

Rockets CAN be under the cap to bid on him, but they have to renounce the trade exception to do so. It was in Zach Lowe's article today about the Free Agency winners and losers posted earlier in the thread.

i agree that morey gets way too much credit from some members of the media and some rockets fans. but that's not because he isn't a great GM, it's because they make him out to be the best ever. in reality, he's a great GM who is smart, relentless and aggressive, sometimes to a fault.

Chris "CP360" Paul was the Heliflopter before James Harden was even in the league.

Who calls him "Chandsome" and why didn't I think of that name!

But seriously, I haven't heard anybody call parsons that or Harden "Heliflopter".

That's pretty general nomenclature for reportage.

I don't do the "wait outside the Toyota Center and hope [celebrity] shows up" thing.

There are plenty of fat ones out there for sure. I'm 5'11 190. Not a marathon runner, but not that fat.

Same here. Never heard either nickname. The rest of the article is 100% accurate, though. :p

I know it's common for reporters. I thought you were a photographer. Do y'all use the same term is what I was getting at?

Photojournalists are still journalists and are still supposed to abide by the standard journalism ethics. [Insert "journalism ethics" is an oxymoron jokes here]

So I generally wear pro sports stuff to NCAA games and NCAA stuff to pro sports games. You won't see me in A&M clothes at an Aggie game unless I am shooting for A&M. I take that stuff pretty seriously.

Meh..photojournalist. All you do is click a button and the camera does the rest.

So easy that even bored housewives can start their own photography studio.

Soup has admitted in private that he never takes his camera off auto. And he's absolutely in love with overcooked HDR photography.

I used to have one of the first digital cameras. It held a disc and everything. You should get one.

The most overrated image in the history of Kyle Field was taken with an iphone. Texags eats that stuff up.
