How The Spurs Signed Marcus Morris And How He'll Fit

[GreekSpursfan]

y'all really excited for Marcus Morris? Not a perimeter defender, not a 3pt shooter... what am I missing here?

Watch ElNono be right again. Need to stop hyping overrated players tbh. Meh move.

[EricB]

Isn't he a PF? Or is that the twin?

He can play 3 and 4. He shoots threes well. YouTube is your friend

Bend over. I'll give you what you're missing here.

Not a typical Spurs character guy. But the Spurs thought they had that with Nephew and he was one of the biggest frauds/quitters in NBA history. I like that they're taking on more risks and guys that don't fit their character mold. Morris is no Demarcus Cousins, he actually has productivity on the court.

I only saw a couple of Celtic games last season, but Marcus impressed me. I am ecstatic about this signing. With the expected improvement from Dijon and White, I actually expect us to be contenders. GSG!

sup brotha, about to rub one out for the Carroll signing, not going to lie, tbh...

Si Senior. Donday esta el banjo?

Good to see the Spurs make a bold move with the NBA in flux. And they didn't even have to hurt the long-term flexibility to do so

Thanks for the write-up. I like the new format! It's much better way to have articles on any given subject. It's a super news source for all things silver & black. I was really happy we added a starter that can make an immediate contribution.

This is the key. Spurs’ 2nd unit will destroy other teams’ benches. We deeeep

PG: Murray/Mills
SG: White/Forbes/Walker/Beli
SF: DDR/Carroll/Johnson
PF: Morris/Gay/Samanic
C: LA/Poeltl/Metu

That doesn't include our two way contacts.

My guess is that the two rookies will spend most of the year on Austin. But that second unit has potential to do serious damage against the G leaguers these other team sare using to round out their rosters.

Why do people say that? Cause there were some
issues when he was a rookie on the Suns? From what I know Morris is the ultimate professional and was a good influence in the Celtics locker room. He brings some leadership and toughness to the team. There weren't any problems with him on the Pistons either

Spurs have one of the best benches in the league. Suddenly the team has great depth. And I have no idea why the Celtics let Morris go. No money I guess?

I like M&M. For some reason the dude strikes me as somewhat mean. Remember “I want some nasty”? I think he can provide some of that.

He's the only Celtic that seemed to give a in the playoffs. He's a compe or.

hope he brings that Mario Ellie junkyard dog mentality to the spurs.

That's a pretty detailed and polished article to get ready in just an hour, TIMVP. It's almost like you worked on it in advance.

You holding out on us?

tbh... Bowen did it. Mi cuchara en la senorita.

YES!!! That’s what I was looking for! With this group, he seems to be the one that seems likely to provide that fire.

Haven’t really seen the celts in the POs, but I’ll take your word for it.

[SAGirl]

Great news! Thanks for keeping us up to date LJ

[barakz21]

OT, but has anyone seen bobo’s post on Instagram about diving with the sharks with Manu?

[apalisoc_9]

Decent get.

Important with Kawhi/PG

[acoelho1]

I give use a lot more than a punchers chance. We are deep and are going to be very good defensively next year, top 3 for sure.
