Suns aquire Marcus Morris

Woj

The Houston Rockets have traded Marcus Morris to the Phoenix Suns for a future second-round draft pick, league sources tell Y! Sports.


Absolutely love it.

Morris twin powers activate, form of top 10 lottery pick, :lol:

Actually though, I do like the trade, we didn't get fleeced for once...

Now that I say that the next Manu will be drafted with that Suns pick of course.

Marcus and Markieff are the most identical set of twins I have ever seen. With them wearing the same color jersey, it is going to be hell trying to distinguish between the two of them :lol:

Solid move, just a 2nd rounder for a lottery player just two years ago. Plus, it should motivate both twins to improve and get better together. So, what's not to like about this particular move?

Yeah, solid move. Their reunion will improve play, bot brothers off the bench on rookie scale deals? Nice.

Low risk, high reward.

He does have talent.

I like it. Brothers will help each other. Just don't play the two at the same time on court. :D

In my opinion, bad trade. Marcus has no real upside, like Markieff. Another bench player for our team.

Hard being a fan of this team....and they make it worse and worse. Such a meaningless move.
