Here's a new video of the team's highlights through the first six games (except for the Jazz game, because that never happened). Highlight videos can always make us look like a better team than we actually are.

Also, here's a video of Marcus Morris' defense against Rudy Gay, who shot 5-22 from the field the other night.

You can tell that Marcus doesn't have fantastic lateral quickness and that he looks a little bit slow, and yet that makes it even more impressive that he almost always kept his feet in the right place and contested the shot. He may not be quick, but as a tweener he had the strength to stop Gay from getting anywhere on those post-ups. I think his defense has definitely improved, he also held Kobe to 25-62 shooting (40%) in two games.
