he lives around here in houston,(i see in katy quite often) and every time i se him we walks around like he is big sh*t,once i saw him at bennigans and he just shrugged me of when i tried to say hi,then my pal said he was rude when he saw him at the car wash as well. anyone else bump into him?
I saw Chris Morris at the Fonde a lot during the summer league. I never spoke to him so I cant say anything about his personality.
Yeah you will see him every where in houston. Haven't had a run in with him. He has been by the club a few times and hung out and stuff but seemed very quiet didn't really talk to anyone other than his friends. So i can't say he was a mean person or not but he can be seen everywhere lol.
Morris is an ass and was sent packing because Sloan couldn't take his **** any more. In fact back when Utah was in the NBA Finals in 1998 I was outside the gym where they were in and every Jazzman came out and signed autographs, talked with the fans and did just about everything one could do to please us all. Anyway, Morris came out and pushed his way through the crowd, found his way to the car and as he was driving off yelled out his window, "You best all be gettin out of the way or I'm gonna run your asses over!" I flipped him off and he told me to shove it. I felt like spitting on his car. But yeah, he was always in Jerry's doghouse.
It's so funny that anyone remembers Chris Morris as a Jazz player. He barely played at all for Utah. Sloan couldn't stand his lazy ass. He always looked and played like he was half asleep. His best days were as a New Jersey Net. Morris never really fit in here.
He refused to enter a game one time with the Nets. Just sat there on the bench. Him and 'whoopty-damn-do'.
I think I still have Chris Morris' basketball card when he played for the Nets (89-90)...pretty good stats at that year
http://www.geocities.com/tzovas/nbastars/morris_chris.html Morris' European career has been a quite traumatic experience and he said in an interview that he'd never play in Europe again. He signed with Greek team Olympiakos in the summer of 1999 and left in the midseason. The team claims that he had a bad behavior and he pretended to be injured. Morris on the other hand says that he was injured from the beginning and the team didn't show any understanding, forcing him to play. He played 5 games in total (Greek+European championship), averaging just 6.5 points.
