    This is Morris' 3rd game, since he sprained his ankle. It will be his 7th game for the season.

    Greg Smith signed a contract with the Rockets. However, it doesn't stop the Rockets from sending him down to the D-League. He is a question mark for the starting lineup.

    Is Jeff Adrien back on the Vipers? Where did he go?

    Game starts at 7:00 PM Central.

    Texas rivalry between the Spur's D-league affiliate the Austin Toros and the Rocket's RGV Vipers.

    Morris looks like he's really trying to clog the paint on defense a lot... does he know he's supposed to follow his man to the perimeter as a 3?

    Yuck. His defense looks horrible. He keeps leaving his man open on the perimeter, while sticking close to the basket for the rebound.

    Morris definitely has a scorer's attitude. He likes that pull up jumper a lot. Fortunately it looks like he's money with it.

    He looks like he takes plays off... but makes some great plays also.

    It seems like he just wants to boost his raw numbers thinking that will get him pulled back up to the rotation.

    RGV's offense is ugly. Half the time it's 1 on 5. *shakes his head*

    Not sure what to think of Morris. He has a really nice and smooth jumper, but he has shown no ability to drive to the basket. I can't see him ever being a consistent offensive force in the NBA if he is only a jump shooter. His defense and motor still don't look good either. He plays like he just smoked a bowl and decided to go play some ball. I see all these faults yet he looks like he can be a hell of a lot better than what he is showing. I hope he finds his motor when he gets back to the NBA.

    Judging by the comments here you would have thought that the guy did bad tonight.:rolleyes:

    Morris: 22pts, 5rbds, 2 asst.
    Smith: 15pts, 4rbds, 3blks

    Both these guys are having great stints in the D-league.

    Also, i didn't know we had good ole Willie Warren on the team. He is having a pretty good run down in the D-league.
    19pts, 3rbds, 2asst.
