Around SBN: 2011 In Extreme Home Runs

Some Anthony Morrow Videos...

A couple videos here from YouTube illustrate some very good things about Anthony Morrow, at least offensively.

(Look to :26 crossover on Durant; 1:16 on Jefferson)

(That was around Brandon Roy)

1) He is surprisingly more athletic than I anticipated and seems like he has the potential to expand his game to be more than a spot-up and three-point shooter. The thunderous dunk he has in the second video was quite surprising.

2) Still, his three point game is his bread and butter and if that is what works, he should stick to it. He has a very fluid motion and is clearly a natural scorer from the perimeter.

3) None of the highlight reels showed his defensive capabilities, but like Chris Paul was quoted as saying he is great at what he does.

Does Morrow have the chance to start? Most definitely...

Do I see him starting? Probably not. After reading the post about Johnson's coaching style on offense, it may make more sense for Williams to start because of his ball handling and athleticism out on the run after a defensive rebound. Yet, I can also make the case that T-Will could help anchor the bench with his overall game and thus Anthony Morrow would make more sense staying out on the wing and waiting for dribble penetration kick outs from Harris.

Regardless, the Nets have locked up a very good young player, with a good work ethic and a level head. May have been the best signing of the summer.

Good post

I think Morrow deserves that starting spot. He has to earn it through training camp though.

Notice

All of the kicking out and shooting that happened. Imagine that with harris. Really opens up the paint for him and allows him to kick it out if necessary

One more thing

Tack on Murphy to that line up. Not only do you now have 2 good three point shooters (3 if you add Outlaw), but you’ve also just pulled the opposing teams PF from the paint. It’ll be hunting season for Harris and the possibilities become endless!

Yeah someone yesterday said he was a poor ball handler… I guess they dont watch many non Nets games?
