http://tinyurl.com/b9zaqa7 Very seldom does an NBA gym stop for anything. Players are working on their games, oblivious to what’s happening around them. That wasn’t the case Saturday afternoon on the Mavericks’ practice court, when Anthony Morrow started going around the 3-point arc, lofting perfect shot after perfect shot. Dirk Nowitzki stopped in his tracks and watched the newest Maverick make the first 21 triples he fired up. By the time the streak hit 20, Nowitzki and other teammates were shouting both encouragement and, shall we say, less-flattering things to try to rattle the fiery-hot Morrow. Finally, with four shots left to run a perfect rack of 25 3-pointers — five each from both corners, both wings and straight out from the basket — Morrow left one just a fraction short. Smiling, he made the last three to go 24-of-25. “I got a little too anxious on that one,” Morrow said. “I heard everybody start saying stuff and rushed it.” Nevertheless, it was a nice way to introduce himself to the Mavericks. Morrow went through his first practice session — a crash course, coach Rick Carlisle called it. Then Morrow put on the shooting show. When he was done, it was clear that’s why the Mavericks traded Dahntay Jones to Atlanta for the fifth-year player out of Georgia Tech. “I’m extremely blessed to be here coming from my last situation.” Morrow said. “I couldn’t stop smiling. I knew that Dallas was one of the places I could end up after the deadline. I’m glad to be here. It’s a great offense for me.” Morrow’s shooting Saturday was nothing the Mavericks didn’t expect. He’s been a dead-on 3-point threat his whole career. Morrow had games of 29 and 27 points against Dallas, including a combined 9-of-12 3-point shooting in his first two seasons in the league when he was with Golden State. For his career, he’s averaged 16.7 points against the Mavericks, his highest mark against any team in the NBA. While Morrow’s shooting will be a welcome addition, there are some grassy-knoll theories out there that his close friendship with a certain soon-to-be-free-agent center might have been a secondary reason the Mavericks traded for him. It never hurts to have good relations with anybody who might have Dwight Howard’s ear, right? “That’s my guy,” Morrow said of Howard. “We’ve been close since high school. We’re very close now. But we haven’t talked at all about free agency. I don’t have any power in that. He’s going to do what he’s going to do. He’ll definitely make the best decision for himself and his family.” Asked if Morrow could let Howard know what a fine place Dallas is, he said: “ He should know that already.” Morrow在练习时 三分球投25中24 在进入第20颗时 队友开始在场边欢呼 Morrow生涯对上小牛能砍下16.7分 另外他高中时是Dwight Howard的好友 --
