The Branding of the bench-"BWA" should become like Ubuntu

[rollie mass]

Boston was famous for it's sixth man and it could now apply to our bench.Morris and his BWA is a coup, as it soothes the egos of starter caliber players.
Morris,Rozier,Smart,Thies and Baynes will stand out defensively and will have more defined offensive rolls than the first unit.
I think the BWA should be considered a major part of a great regular season and at every opportunity should get press, headlines and applause.
BWA should be like Ubuntu in 2008.

Morris came into last season late after a summer of courtroom drama,distracting to say the least. Out of shape, to a new team full of new players.Morris then suffered injuries that hampered the first half of season.But now mentally and physically in best shape of his career.

We now what Marcus Smart brings. Rozier and Morris should be BWA's primary scorers with Theis a lob threat.But think of the bone crunching defense with Baynes,Morris,Smart ,Rozier and Theis-   " BWA for MVP"

I too am very excited about the potential of the BWA.
If I recall correctly, Marcus Smart said that the pending free agency / end of his contract impacted on his mindset, so I am very excited to see him roll out there with no worries about his future.
Terry should have hopefully taken another step, especially in his shot IQ and finishing around the ring. He won't be handed the keys completely, like he was for stretches during the playoffs, but I still have confidence in him cementing himself as one of the best bench guards in the NBA.
Morris is, despite the opinion of some posters, a starter on most of the weaker teams in the NBA, and is yet our 8th man off the bench. With an actual preseason, and the likely chance that he will get to play over 60 games this season, I'm very excited to see what he can bring (assuming he buys in).
Theis and Baynes are both super off the bench too. Theis is rangier, more athletic and more suited to defending the perimeter, whereas Baynes is about as strong as any. Not to mention both were displaying 3 point shots at the ends of their seasons.

Sprinkle in RWill, Ojeleye, Yabusele and Wanamaker and you have, in my mind, the best bench unit in the NBA

Morris, Rozier, Smart, Theis and Baynes is the strongest 2nd unit that I can remember in a long time.

Still, if Rozier and Morris are cold, that unit will struggle to make shots.  I expect to see at least one starter on the floor at all times, maybe two.

Our bench looks great and I’m very excited about it.  I’m probably in the minority but I’m not excited to here “BWA” all year.  It’s super corny in my opinion.  I’ve never liked bench nicknames.  And I thought the whole Ubuntu thing was awesome.
