But look at the primary factors for us-
1) Defense- I don't think Adam is going to be as bad as advertised but he's certainly never making an all-defensive team. We NEED a renaissance in the defensive end of the court and Ammo certainly isn't going to take us to the next level. If we're getting a player that will push Charlie to PF and Bosh to C, I want the guy to have freak defensive potential.
2) Offense- I guess he'd fit in, though I don't really see him as a true run and gun/dunk player. In the half court, he's always going to be money but will he ever maximize his potential when you're going to Bosh so frequently? I know Mitchell might not be here for much longer but he's point guard/frontcourt intensive and hasn't displayed all that much offball movement to this point.
That said, Morrison would be fine. I've been coveting a wing play-maker since Vince left. He fits nicely on the wing with Joey and Mo. He certainly can't be left to double team Bosh. He's got the heart and Bball IQ to fit in perfectly. I could certainly see us making playoffs if we were to draft him at #1.

reading your post, one thing jumps to mind.
With Bosh as our #1 option on offense and CV who dropped 48, thus proving he is reliable on offense, he should be #2 as Mike James doesn't seem to be staying.
I don't expect Adammo to be our #1 or 2 offensive option, not over Bosh and I hope not over CV (who by the way, I think should be our #1 option over Bosh, he has shown he has better a better offense, but that's besides the point).
thus, have such a "great" offensive player who has weak defense is beneficial to us how? I think he'll be our 4th option behind mo pete even, and if he is able to get to #3, that's cool, but no way he will be #1 or 2 with the raps I think.
so why do we need him? His D will ALWAYS suck due to his 40 years old legs.
