    33 points in 37 is good but did anyone notice the 3 turnovers. I believe the d-league is good in highlighting the good and bad of every player. Morris needs to cut down on those turnsovers.

    Stop.

    He had 5 assists. A SF with a 5/3 assist-turnover ratio with as many touches as he had is great!

    lol....dude puts it up 33 points in less than a full game with 16 rebs and we got someone talking about 3 turnovers....with more assists than turnovers anyways....as a SF....

    yeah. the rockets should definitely keep their eye out for that.

    Do you know how those turnovers were caused? I didn't watch the game.

    I know he can score. What I'm surprised about is the 3 turnovers in the D-league. He needs to work on that especially if he wants to become a starter for the rockets.

    One of those TOs was about to be game-tying assist. He had a man cutting through an open lane to the basket but threw the ball at him too hard and too high and it went out of bounds. Unfortunate, and hopefully something he can learn from.

    3 TOs, playing with a whole new team.

    Don't worry about it.

    they couldnt even get a picture of him? from anywhere?

    anyway... any idea when we might call him back up? could be soon, especially since mchale has been tinkering with the lineup a bit and is clearly not opposed to starting a rookie at the 3. maybe he'll be back for the 2 home games on the 13th and 14th. that sacramento game would be a great one to ease him into.

    I will never understand keeping Adrien and not keeping Smith. Let Morris play a few more games at the d league level. Let him work on being a small forward on both sides of the ball. We need to find a deal for Budinger/Martin to free up some playing time in the backcourt. Williams can just as easily play some SG.
