Saw tonight that Marcus Morris was traded to the Phoenix Suns, where he will once again be teammates with his brother, Markieff. This should be interesting, good for them...
Even better was the trade that sent Thomas Robinson to Houston. Since the Rockets shipped off both Marcus and Patric Patterson our TRob should be in line to get plenty of playing time.
Good because TRob will be less I was worried about T-Rob following the example set by Cousins, so I'm glad he is getting away from that team. It's awesome that the twins are reunited. I'm actually looking forward to the next Phoenix Suns game!
Oops, this was supposed to say "Good because TRob will be less likely to form bad habits in Houston" I'm still exhausted from last night's double overtime thriller.
Plus TRob will be working with Kevin McHale on a daily basis. How amazing to work with Danny Manning for three years and then McHale. Two of the best big men in NBA history.
Living here in Phx, I get to see the Suns almost every game on Fox Sports AZ. Several weeks ago, in a game vs Sacramento, MK played head to head against Trob. It was fun to watch - they matched up for quite a bit of the second half. They both had good games, scoring and rebounding, and it was fun to watch them talking to each other occasionally up and down the court.
I too am glad Trob is away from Cousins - he's a cancer in the locker room and on the court.
Now, the Suns broadcast team will have to learn how to tell the difference between the Morris brothers w/out seeing the backs of their jerseys.
Also in the trade Cole Aldrich was sent to Sacramento. I feel bad for Cole just getting moved around every few weeks now. Hopefully he can stay and make a name for himself out there.
