Kid's a player and I've been really impressed. Hope he can continue his hot start throughout the season.
Yep, I mean unless we start playing one of the rookies, where else would we get a consistent offensive threat off the bench? Delfino?
Mook needs to get more playing time. I'm not sure how to do that but the man has figured it out and as his confidence grows so will his production. And best of all he looks to be clutch! At this point I would prefer he take the last second shot over JHard. He is going to have to be someone that Sampson has in the game during the closing minutes of the game to keep defenses from swarming Harden. I think he is the 2nd best offensive option on the team right now. His per 36 stats are off the charts thru 9 games. 18 ppg, 9 rpg, .51 FG%, .42 3PT%. He has only had 3 games so far where his shooting percentage was below 50%. Daryl Morey has said that one of the young guys on the team could develope into an all star quality player, could Mook be him? What is the best way to get him on the floor more? Perticularly in the starting line-up? You can't really sit Chandler down since he is also playing great basketball. Is Chandler athletic enough to play the 2 spot and move JHard to the point? JHard Chandler Mook Pat Asik
I'd like to see them try this lineup. Not sure I like Harden at the point though. But definitely intriguing.
I personally don't think Chandler is a good fit at the 2 spot, but maybe slide him to the Power Forward position? Then your lineup looks like: Lin Harden Morris Parsons Asik That's a lot of defense in that lineup, and the potential for some great offense. I can't remember whether we've used it or not, but I think it could be effective.
I understand why everyone wants to put him at the point, but really i feel more comfortable with Lin there. He hasn't been producing because hasn't been really used ina position to succeed. Also it could be the knee and just a shooting slump. Chandler Parsons is the starter because his defense his elite and Morris might never be as good on defense as Parsons. If i remember correctly Morris seemed to get killed by Batum. I guess if you suggest using this lineup during the second quarter or for a few minutes that would be interesting to watch, but I would not want that as a starting lineup.
I love seeing Morris on the floor. Between him, Delfino and Parsons we should definitely be a 3-pt threat in the future. I like that he plays with aggression and passion - this is something I feel is lacking amongst the team because they're mostly unseasoned especially as starters.
A hot streak of shooting is one thing, but Morris is also playing good D and making hustle plays. He's also hitting the boards. At what point does he make Parsons expendable?
Parsons has team options for the next 2 years for less than a mil, he's not going anywhere at that price. Morris can split time at the 3 and 4.
In so happy for the guy. As soon as I Saidthat Igave up hope hereally got focused and started becoming a real option. Go Morrrs!
Take Pat out and Trade him for a picks or backup point guard Mook play the starting PF... Chandler is the glue guy we cant tick him out
You almost have to keep Morris on the bench. He is your firepower there. Really think this guy is looking like someone that could end "blowing up" a little bit.
I would like to see run the second unit and have full control there versus being the second option in the first unit. I could see morris being good as a starter
Ppat also plays more with Parsons, who's a better rebounder. Of course, Morris plays with Delfino, who puts up the same rebounding stats as Patterson.
I'm really liking what I'm seeing from Morris. He's playing the stretch four. With Asik, his defense may be good enough to start.
