    This is the very thing you were trying to avoid nas
    I know that bro. It's pretty obvious after my second reply to psycho that I wasn't trying to avoid it through my actions.

    I did at first to...but then Morris revealed himself to be somebody dumb enough to say "you know what...I just might rather go play in a place with a higher standard of living...higher taxes...while playing on a team that already has at least 3 guys who play my position...and the way I am going to go about doing this...is to not show up for my psychical"

    I don't think you can win with a guy that dumb or that cowardly...I have no confidence that Morris is going to be a team player and do what it takes to win at a high level because he seems to be in the process of going to play for a much tier team with a logjam at his position...

    Many, apparently. Inexplicably.

    I think he just got talked into taking the highest one year deal he can so he can try to get a better deal next summer.

    if he comes on board, he's basically on a one year deal (player option he is almost certain to reject and will enter free agency). regardless of his at ude, dude is going to ball out and play for a big contract. and he's shown he can be a key cog in a playoff team (boston). besides, as it stands, we made ourselves weaker for no reason by dealing away bertans, giving carroll a third year. not landing morris after that is a disaster tbh. but in the off chance he changes his mind again and joins us, i'd much rather have morris on a 1 year deal than bertans on that one year deal. having neither though? yeesh.

    He stinks and even alienated the Warriors.
    He gonna be a huge x factor for the Lakers this year, even last year just coming from achilles and playing also with a torn quad he was good enough to win a finals game for the Warriors as an x factor...

    Hindsight is always 20/20. Morris is a better pickup than Cousins. The Spurs didn't know Morris would pull this kind of stunt.
    Spurs getting around a lot lately, does someone need to take responsibility?

    this right here. Morris would be a key player especially against both LA Teams. If we lose Bertans for Carroll without getting Morris that's a tough one. You could make the argument that the team only improves in getting Murray back and Walker developing

    Such a shame about Reggie Bullock. Only six months to live after contracting the deadly plantar fasciitis.

    At this point Marcus Morris deserves to come to SA. He can live in a hotel by the airport like Mo Cheeks did when he was a Spur. Cheeks supposedly hated not living on the East Coast. Today it’s OKC for him, go figure.

    Don't worry, each one of you will come up with somebody to point the finger at and blame besides the player himself (even though a contract wasn't even officially signed).

    The longer this drags out the better for the Spurs. The “mensches” of the Knick front office have to talk Bullock and his agent into accepting at least $10MM less unless they want to give him more years.

    Some rumblings among agents about Morris’ reneging on his deal setting a bad precedent and screwing up free agency moving forward. Knicks could just say F it and sign Morris but they’d lose Bullock who they do still seem to want to sign. Also some type of litigation risk for them over the plantar fasciitis issue.

    Reggie Bullock thought he was getting $21MM this offseason, don’t see any player just accepting a large drop in that, especially when the real reason is obvious.

    Knicks are trying to renege on a guaranteed money offer with a player using a lame excuse to sign another player who has an agreement in place with another team. This should piss off and concern a lot of people in the NBA.

    Is that like a mental health examination? If so, he has already failed.

    Forbes is valued so much more than anyone around here realizes.

    You think they'd trade Bertans if they had any doubts?
    Definitely think Davis was on his way out anyways. It just sucks he was wasted as an asset if this doesn’t pan out. Definitely could have used him in other trades and play him meantime as well, if the trade happened mid season. I don’t think he was going to be reupped after his deal was over. He wasn’t even all that satisfied with his role and minutes per his own words.

    Reasonable and basically how I feel. This is a business decision and there’s no way there for getting hurt bc he had second thoughts about wanting more money. It doesn’t mean I have to like him, the person.
