From where are those minutes coming?


Anderson, Aminu, Rivers, Smith minutes from the above list.

I think they are still attempting to develop Rivers, and I doubt they'll sacrifice his minutes to play a min salary guy. Would you rather them play Rivers for 9 minutes and Morrow for 15? That just doesn't make much sense to me.


You really think they care who makes what in regards to playing time? I'd rather them play whoever helps the team win. They aren't going to go out of their way to get Rivers minutes if he's sucking it up.

If they are going to play Morrow 5 mpg they would not have bothered signing him. Even RMjr got 17 mpg last season. Terrel Harris got 8. Darius Milller 13. 5mpg is what your worst player will get

The one that has Anderson at 29 mpg? lol No way Anderson plays less than 29 minutes next season. Positions may not matter, but Morrow isn't eating into any frontcourt player's minutes.

Like I said in my post, I could see Morrow being a nightly contributor. It probably means that he beats out Miller (very likely) and takes minutes from Rivers (possible, but Monty does love Rivers).

Faulty logic. How many DNP-CDs did those guys get? How did injuries and a lost season affect the minutes that they saw?

Saying Morrow will average 15mpg for the season and saying he will get 15mpg on a nightly basis are two different things. I assumed, and could very well be wrong, that the OP was talking about the latter.
