Morrow and Williams have both have finished the last two seasons with a 114 d rating. Carmelo has never exceeded 111 and is playing a barely above average 101 this season.

Reggie leads Morrow in almost every statistical category, excepting steals per and ft %.

Morrow is good for two threes a game and a few long range jump shots, in a lot of minutes. He doesn’t play d well, he doesn’t get to the line, he can’t create his own shot, he doesn’t rebound, so he’s pretty much as one dimensional as it gets in the NBA.

It’d be nice to have someone who can hit open threes, but unfortunately, with our team, he’d have to be on the floor a good while, and with Boris Diaw, to get any open looks. At least Reggie Williams can penetrate and get some free throws.

This, i would do. I played pickup ball with Morrow a few times up at the Dowd Y. Good guy. I dont know the contract numbers but Morrow is a Charlotte guy and he and maybe Jamison down the road could be what Jordan said he was looking for in players that buy in to the city and the vision of what he wants to do here.

Our team is more suited for an uptempo type of game. And we have to implement an uptempo style of play. (Im already talking like Morrow is here lol bc we have alot of expirings to offer and this is perfect for us). If you look at the roster its easy to tell that we are more suited to pushing the ball than setting up in the half court and running a play. Not saying that we cant do it but with the personnel, it better suits us to run more often than not. Kemba, Hendo, DJ and Maggs are exploited when we set up. Kemba, Hendo and DJ are undersized. It doesnt take a defensive specialist to do a decent job on guarding undersized players. Whereas if they are running, its hard to stay in front of them. Maggs on the other hand isnt gonna beat many off the dribble like he did in California. In turn, him getting to the rim for those FTs has cut back. Maggs getting the ball on the run with that strong frame and at this age is probably more effective to Maggs strengths. Now how this relates to Morrow:

No matter what type of offense we run, having a shooter as deadly as Morrow suits BOTH the speedy style and the more traditional style. I will not say that Morrow is better than Hendo (altho I like Morrow better). But if Morrow had those type of screens, I feel he’d be more effective. In NJ, he doesnt get those type of screens. With the speed of our PGs, the driving ability of Maggs/Hwnso and the passing of Diaw, he fits here.

We have an opportunity to build a team. A TEAM. And with Morrow, the pieces are set in place. And the holes are filled UNTIL the draft. Our backcourt is set. Even with NO AUGUSTIN, I feel like Dragic, Flynn, Zowdell, Udrih, Price are good enuff to hold down a second unit. Heck, its still some undrafted FAs and some D-leaguers that can hold down a second unit (Courtney Fortson/Donald Sloan)…Adding Morrow, gives us the freedom to now focus our worries of the frontcourt. Lets do it. Look at Morrow’s numbers from the last 5 or 6 games. FEAR of the 3pt shot is like an extra man on offense…

not great but not terrible. But I’ll tell you what. A zone defense is a whole lot more effective with Morrow at the 2 than Kemba
