    Morris was never a 3. Even during preseason he was playing as a 4. Even when parsons was out, the rockets played the sg cook.

    They played a line up with Smith, Jones, and Morris all in in preseason

    I would love to see more of Morris at the three. I'd love to see him, Greg, and TJ come off the bench at the same time. Sure, there would be growing pains, but I think this unit could really do some damage in time.

    Escape goat is how Hispanics pronounce it. It's just esomething they do.

    (I can make this joke because I know esomeone who knows esomeone who's Hispanic.)

    It matters defensively. I think you fail to understand that there's two sides to every game... :rolleyes:

    he was not a 4 in the preseason or in summer league.

    yes he was a 4 when parsons went out, but that was the regular season, and i was talking about the offseason.

    Morris is starting to get it on the offensive end, but is still struggling on defense. I think after TJones figures out what to do on the court, Morris will be the backup small forward.

    Beasting in the D-League is quite different than playing in the NBA. I watched all 4 minutes of TJ's play at Toronto and had 3 face palms during that time frame. Decisions on playing time is best left up to the coaches. Fans opinions generally are not based on any discernible reality.

    The ride quality can be rough. I prefer escaping on a Lexus SUV.

    that just sounds wrong for some reason.
