The New Jersey Nets ink Anthony Morrow to a 3-year offer sheet

The Nets have signed 24-year old SG/SF Anthony Morrow to a 3-year, $12 million dollar offer sheet. Morrow played in 69 games (37 starts) for the Warriors last season and he averaged 29.2 minutes, 13.0 points, 3.8 rebounds and 1.5 assists per game. He has now played in 136 games (54 starts) in his two years with the Warriors and he has averaged 26.0 minutes, 11.6 points, 3.4 rebounds and 1.4 assists per game. Morrow has hit 46% of his shots from behind the three point line in his NBA career as he is one of the best sharpshooters in the league. I really like this aggressive attempt at signing Morrow who is a restricted free agent meaning the Warriors have 7 days to either match the offer or lose him to New Jersey.

UPDATE: (7/13/2010) - The Nets have worked out a sign and trade deal with the Warriors for Morrow. They have sent a $4 million dollar trade exception to Golden State. I really like this move for the Nets as Morrow is a up and coming player.
