It May Be A Morris Vs Millsap Feud, But Dennis Schröder Had The Best Reaction
Saying that Markieff Morris and Paul Millsap do not like each other, is a huge understatement.
All of it started before the series even started. Prior to Game 1, Morris called Millsap “soft” and it obviously carried over into the intense first game. The two power forwards went back-and-forth, trash talking the entire way. During a scuffle to corral a loose ball, Morris forearmed Millsap in the face and somehow got away with a nocall. Then, a free-throw line exchange almost turned into a brawl on the court.
After a game two was a little calmer, they rejuvenated their trash-talking in last night’s game 3.

During his post game press conference, Paul Millsap responded with his own shot:
“It definitely got personal now, yes. I mean, I don’t care. So what? He can take his loss and go back to the hotel and be ready for the next game.”
But the best part of all that, was Dennis Schröder’s reaction. Dennis was sitting next to Millsap on the podium at the press conference and when he found out about Morris’ ‘crybaby’ statement, he responded:
“Oh my god, no. Ohhhhhhhh,”
Trust me, it’s funnier when you see it.
"It definitely got personal now."
