Over/under on how many times Morris

[ScoutRefugee]

Gets to the rim for an easy layup against us? I get that he's kind of a dinosaur with his "traditional PG" game.
I'm gonna say 10 times. He gets to the rim 10 times and scores 26 + pts. that doesn't seem possible, as nobody plays basketball like he does anymore. But that's my guess.
What say the rest of you?

Who cares?

I'll take the under on 10. He'll be sitting much of the second half in a blowout.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

It would be nice if someone put him on his ass. Or anyone for that matter.

A hard foul might go a long ways.

 

[Buffalo43]

I say Frans defense plan might want to key on that and limit him to under 10 times

 

[Buffalo43]

Let him shoot the 3 which is not his specialty

And hard foul by Moss

He hasn't been driving as much this year without Niang/Nader/McKay to dish off to. He seems to look more for the kickout than before. Should be interesting to see who guards Monte and Burton.

I will be interested to see who is assigned to defend him and, assuming different players give it a shot, who is most successful in their efforts.

It will also be interesting to see what our team defensive approach is in this game.

Agree.
Oh, he'll get to the rim plenty. He just won't need to do it that much and won't be in for enough second half minutes to get above 10.

 

[ketelmeister]

He had some hard fouls against him last season, didn't seem to phase him.

He's a career 38% 3 point shooter... I don't understand this logic.

And hard foul by Moss

Where's Woodbury when you need him?

4 of 15.

Do you still want us to answer your question?

 

[ScoutRefugee]

Couldn't be happier to be wrong! Morris with his "something special planned for the Iowa fans" bull shit. I don't know about you guys but Morris blowing layups sure was the kind of "special" that I like.

Fire away! I'm not the least but unhappy about it. Couldn't be happier.

Isaiah Moss did a pretty good job on Morris defensively....and scored as well. Moss is turning into a very important player for the Hawks!
