morrow is a bench player on that team.. he is not responsible for why they suck?

there are several losing teams, I wouldn't mind stealing players from the clippers... blake griffin, gordon... LOL...

i just don't consider Anthony Morrow an impact player... he's a supporting cast guy who's specialized for a specific role... as a 3rd or 4th option to fill holes that need to be filled, i'd be fine w/him, but we're not currently in need of a backup SG that plays no defense... we need a shotblocking big & an orchestrater of the offense... Douglas is playing well but i think it's fair to say we still need someone else that can make plays for himself & his teammates to run MDA's system effectively... Morrow doesn't fill either of those needs.

After 7 years & 40K+ posts, banned by martin for calling Nalod a 'moron'. Awesome.

If I spent 8 mm on both players i.e

A Morrow 5 years 27.5mm
R Williams 4 years 12mm

I can think of a lot worse. These guys are players and bring things we don't have + they are both 24 years old and that is attractive. You want to build a team that can stay together for 8-9 years.

David Lee 6 years 60mm
Amare Stouremire 5 years 85mm
A Morrow 5 years 25mm
R Williams 5 yrs 15 mm
Trade up in draft pick 37 in draft+3mm for Jimmer Fredette
Draft pick 39 Keith Benson C Oakland 6-11 245
Vet minimum Iah Mahinimi 6-11 245
Option on Bill Walker

RIP Crushalot😞

I understand where you are comming from, but he is also pretty young and has proven that he can be a consistent shooter and scorer....not sure how bad his defense he, but in this system with dantoni, he will fill a need. I am not sold that we are set at SG... chandler is more of a Sf/ PF . maybe walker can develop into that SG? who knows..

Anyone who sits around and waits for the lottery to better themselves, either in real life or in sports, Is a Loser............... TKF
