    You can do it Morris, show that you aren't going to be a bust.

    probably helps with the sub patterns for McHale, as well, by keeping the 2nd team rotation in tact..

    Monroe guarded by Morris looks like a mismatch waiting to be exploited.
    And it might even lead to foul trouble for Omer.
    Jones might be able to stay with him. We will see.
    And Smith seems a willing defender, it will be interesting to see if he gets the call.

    This will at least be interesting. Marcus definitely has above average post moves. I'd still rather see Jones or Smith though. Hopefully, this will make more sense as I'm watching it.

    You know Morris at 4 may be for the pnr.

    Morris can finish, handles the ball well, and is a more than decent shooter. He has a chance here and I hope he doesn't fumble it.

    it's his natural position. glad the Morris-SF experiment is over. The guy is what he is. Plus, i think he's basically the same height as Pat. GO MORRIS! very excited to see what he can really do at his natural position.

    I know this is just a coincidence, but McGrady's first game as a rockets was against the pistons on the 1st game of the season. We ended up losing that game, and McGrady ended up finishing with 18 pts, 2 reb and 3 TO.

    Hopefully Harden has a much better debut, and the end result is different this time around!

    I really hope Morris has a good showing. He looked good in the limited action he got over the summer/preseason, and he's said all the right things. I'm rooting for him.

    I am really excited for this game. So glad that the NBA is back. I watched the Lakers Mavericks yesterday & it was absolutely hilarious. My twitter feed was insanely funny. I have missed basketball so much.

    Getting excited, about hour and half till tip off. Can't wait to see Harden, Lin, Asik, and the rest of the new guys play.

    This is not an easy win without Pat.

    Anything less than a triple double for Lin and Harden means they were overpaid...

    In all seriousness, has any team had 2 people get triple doubles on the same night?

    Really excited to see what this team can be! No clue if this team will win 20 games or 40...just look like they'll be exciting to watch!

    Who are some good people to follow on Twitter, roxxy?

    Funny disgruntled Knicks fans are especially welcome.
