Phoenix Mercury G Diana Taurasi weighed in on comments made by Marcus Morris of the Knicks after Wednesday night’s game, when he said Jae Crowder had “female tendencies” (among other insensitive remarks about women) before apologizing. “It was disappointing coming from Marcus,” Taurasi told SNY’s Joe Kraus on Thursday. “I know him, he spent time in Phoenix with the Suns. I’ve had interaction with him. He’s a good guy. To go off the cuff and say stuff like that — he must have been emotional, after (the game). I know it’s intense, but it is what it is now. Words matter and what you say matters. It’s just disappointing coming from him in this stage of his career. You gotta watch it, you gotta be sensitive for what you say. At the end of the day, you’re responsible for what you say. It’s all on his shoulders now.”
