Yes! Yes! Yes!

Sources say Rockets holding out Marcus Morris tonight as they decide between two different deals. Deadline is now just under 20 hours away

For expiring and a 2nd round pick imo.

Clearing Morris contract gives us more cap room for summer.

Bummer. He is/was my favorite Rocket. Much rather have moved Patterson for a real PF and kept Morris as a bench player.

Patterson is much better than Morris.

Bigger. Better defender. Better post scorer. Better mid range game.


Morris is just a spot up 3 point shooter. An average one at that.
