That's My boy straight out of Michigan!
This rookie class has been very solid so far!
i’m excited to play with this two studs in MJJ and CP if i’m kyrie.
HE IS A MONSTER BEST PLAYER OUT OF MICHIGAN AND IT IS NOT CLOSE
He also took 4 threes and made 1 so at the very least, Dusty May was right in saying they'll be working on the outside shot.
Stay ya ass in the damn post more
The upside is there for a ton of these rookie. It was an impressive showing. They looked scattered in the 1st half, but looked like a complete different unit in the 2nd half.
And I told people Morez was the right pick. Obviously, 1 summer league game doesn't vindicate it yet, but it shows you the potential, and this kid has it in spades. He can be a 18-19ppg, 8boards, few assists, 3-4 stocks, all defensive guy.
He does all the little things well, just like Coop. They will fit well together. I really hope lively gets and stay healthy. He is only 22. Coop, Morez, and Lively is a hard 3 to score on
Morez at 1:05–1:09 was impressive and you see why he was taken 1st of the 3 Michigan guys.
I hope Kyrie and Lively stay healthy this year. Imagine the defense with Flagg, Johnson, Lively, and Gafford. Its going to take a bit of luck to consistently get in the paint, much less score. I really wanted Peterson because Kyrie is going to start declining as early as this year really. I hope not but coming off that leg injury and hes getting on the wrong side of 30 is not a good sign. But I digress, if Johnson can play like this every game the Mavs might be back in the playoffs this year. I know he won't score 28 for his rookie season but id be cool with 16pts and 10rbs.
He's looking good. Can't wait to see him running with Kyrie and Coop
Cooper + Morez will be nasty…
His stats say he hit a three but I haven’t seen it in any of the highlights. Did anyone watch the game and can confirm? Says he went 1/4 I just wanted to see the form and release speed
Our future looks bright with Coop & Rez 💯
Showed good mobility as a 4 but not enough shooting to space that way. Too short for 5 work till his frame matures more although his wingspan is the great equalizer.
Mavs will need to give him minutes at the 4 and I would like it as a starter if they push PJ at SF and Cooper at SG.
Nembhard ball hogging and no D😂😂😂
best rookie today
Perfect tandem for cooper and lively who gonna stop this diesel squad
He is good, can screen and good at P n R . Need too see more from his defense tough
Pg c laruan yan
The Hope
Rasheed Wallace w an athletic build = Morez
Dude looks slow nba players will block that shit
He pretty good and Kyrie gonna make him even better
Go Mavs
