    I love watching Morrow shoot the ball. He may be the purest shooter in the league.

    The problem: He can't do a lick else at an NBA level which was one of the reasons he was in and out of Nellie's starting lineup. If Nellie has to sit you because of your defensive shortcomings, well...

    An outstanding end of the rotation option at this point. To ever get considerable minutes on a contending team, he'll have to improve in some other area.

    He's going to put up the same numbers that he did in New York. Same system except this Golden St. team two scoring guards unlike New York so his scoring may come down.

    The Rockets played at a faster pace than NY last season. Golden State was far and away the fasted pace team. He's going to get a ton of putback opportunities.

    I do agree with you about their perimeter options. I still think he may be able to increase his PPG by up to 3 or 4 points.

    RicBucher For my Bay Area tweeps: Ws not expected to match Nets' offer for Anthony Morrow because they're right at luxury-tax threshold.

    Petro, Outlaw and Morrow thats a pretty disappointing offseason when you cleared cap space for Lebron, Bosh or Boozer. Maybe going to Brooklyn will change things but star players don't seem to want to play in NJ.

    That's most likely a combination of the Nets sucking and the other that we really don't have much to offer except some nice beaches and one of the best education systems in the country. But unless you plan on living in New Jersey(would not recommend) during your career there's really no point in signing unless the Nets were a solid team.

    Well, if they were the Brooklyn Nets, they would have got the big 3 more than likely.

    (at least LeBron goes there)
