BTN: Carlos Morris is "Best Transfer" after non-conference slate

[BleedGopher]

per BTN:

BEST TRANSFER

SB: Carlos Morris, Minnesota. He’s the second-leading scorer on the Gophers. He can score in a “phone booth” and is a crafty veteran providing swagger for Minnesota backcourt.

JS: Carlos Morris, Minnesota. Coach Richard Pitino needed someone besides Andre Hollins to score buckets with the shot clock running down, and he found his answer in Carlos Morris.

Would love to hear Howie's take...

Came here to say that.

Howiewowie's disappearance is rather interesting. Morris has been exactly what he said he wouldn't be. 36% from 3 and 45% from the field is pretty respectable. Shot selection could improve a bit, but when you take that many shots you're bound to find a few bad ones. His slight frame has yet to be a major factor other than the fact that he isn't rebounding much at all.

His shot selection has improved immensely from the beginning of the season. He also isn't trying to dribble through traffic like he was during the early stages of the season. I was a little down on him early on, but now he looks like a player that realizes his role on the team and is primed to be a key contributor. His ability to finish around the rim with an array of different shots is tremendous. That's one thing that Andre's game is missing right now as good of a shooter as he is.

Best part about Morris is that we get another year from him. We'll really need him and Mason to carry us next year.

Coach P grabbed nice a JC guy last year in DreMath, and Morris looks to be a solid get this year. I'm guessing Coach P scores on another JC stud for next year.

Go Gophers.

Is this a ploy for Johnny Woodard?? I wouldn't mind that at all!

just to finish up on the article:

BEST DUNK
SB: Sam Thompson inbound alley-oop. He’s done this so many times in his career, and this one of the best of the bunch.
JS: Charles Buggs reverse alley-oop. You see alley-oops all the time nowadays, but you don’t always see them of the reverse variety.
