    Simple question, would you have drafted Morris or someone else?

    we should wait until we get the 2nd round pick to sum it all up on our Draft day performance

    question wasn't about the draft, it was about the first pick... late first round picks suck even more than #14

    I think, so far, been an excellent draft. I thought we were going to move up to get this guy, he fell into our laps at 14.

    Way too early to tell, this is a pre-mature poll.

    Stunk seeing Leonard, Vuecic, Singletary taken right after - I look at all of those guys as better fits than Morris.

    I'll also be open and say I've had a low opinion of the Morris twins.

    After talking to a few of my buddies who follow college ball pretty closely, it sounds like Morris is a pretty good pick. Stands to reason that we aren't done shuffling our 4 spot...but I have no idea who will go. Probably Scola since we seem closer and closer to admitting that we're rebuilding.

    For the record, the saying is "couldn't care less", as in, I care so little, that I couldn't care any less. " I could care less" implies that you must care some, because you could potentially care less.

    DM values BPA over fit, so I am not surprised with the pick.

    I think that Morris will have a long and strong NBA career at the 3.

    Marcus Morris has NBA 3 point range, can attack the basket, post people up, can play perimeter defense...what is there not to like? He is a 3. Yes, we can play him at both spots, but he is really a 3. At almost 6'9 (even with short arms), he'll have enough size in the NBA. Dude seriously has 3-point range in the NBA. You guys need to watch some tape. He strokes the 3 pretty easily.
