Going ISO - Anthony Morrow
We go ISO with one of the best shooters in NBA history, Anthony Morrow. The 9-year vet discusses his feelings about Kevin Durant recently disrespecting him and other former OKC Thunder teammates. Morrow reveals how much the shocking defeat in the 2016 Western Conference Finals still bothers him and what it was like when he found out Durant left for the Warriors. The former Mr. Basketball in North Carolina reveals the incredible challenges he faced as a child, including dealing with homelessness and helping his mother clean buildings in the middle of the night after starring in high school games. He explains his remarkable journey going from an undrafted free agent to a record-setting rookie starter with the Warriors. Morrow talks about what he saw (and didn't see) Steph Curry's rookie year that led him to believe Steph would one day change the game of basketball. And he gives him some detailed tips on becoming a better shooter. -- Kevin Durant's negative comments about his former OKC teammates What Durant is really like as a teammate and friend Losing a 3-1 lead in the 2016 Western Conference Finals Feelings about Durant leaving OKC for GSW Life as Mr. Basketball in North Carolina Cleaning buildings all night long after playing HS games Being homeless as a child Struggling early on during Georgia Tech practices Going from undrafted free agent to rookie starter with the Warriors Scoring 37 in first-ever start Watching Steph Curry grow from a rookie to what he is now Last NBA team who reached out Handling the process of his NBA career ending How Anthony is spending his time now Playing with older kids as a 4-year old Being impressed with Shaun Livingston a OJ Mayo on the HS circuit Anthony gives shooting tips Making adjustments to compete against elite defenders Biggest trash talker in Big 3 Who he'd want to reject the screen and go iso in a must-win situation -- Rejecting the Screen is part of the Locked On Podcast Network and is released on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
