Didn't preen or anything. it was a clean basket ball play. If Morris took offense to that and retaliated then it would be a punk move. |

He's been doing it his entire career |

It’s certainly one take-away. We’re obviously not talking about his basketball skills here fishmike.
The guy’s been in trouble with the law on multiple occasions (battery, assault) and has played for what, 5 different teams so far? |

I am not looking to emulate the Portland Jailblazers from years back, but just ask the basic questions. Can this guy help this team? Will this guy be a positive influence on this team? Billups was on 4 teams in 4 years. Morris has value. Remember he was all but signed with the Spurs? The role of enforcer often gets overvalued, but here I think the value is spot on. We need to keep our kids from getting kicked around. Morris is not a long term piece here (not likely) but he serves an important role in the transformation of this team. No?

The spurs wanted him big time, so his rep has a never prevented him from being wanted by any team. I was seated behind the Knicks bench and more than half the ppl around me where knick fans cheering him on ES

Dont mind that Morris gave Anderson a wake up call, on behalf of the Knicks. |

I just want him to be physical and a no-nonsense type of player. Not stupid. Bang people around, stick up or his teammates and coach, that kind of stuff. But hey, remember John Starks? Guess if your gonna bring back the 90's, you need one guy kinda nuts!

And this guy is supposed to be the "veteran" presence on the team... give me a break Morris has been a big leader in catching technical (another Rasheed Wallace) however, Marcus Morris are the best winning player on the Knicks roster in the 2019-20 season. The 3 yr contract the Knicks gave to Randle should've been given to Morris. To me Horford & Morris put the Boston Celtics back on the playoff map the last few seasons. |
