Yeah, seriously. Did he really compare Bargnani to Hakeem?

some similarities. I'd argue that Rip is now an average defender, although when he entered the league he wasn't that hot. also, it was only last season that Rip developed a solid three pointer. even then he only took a little over one attempt a game. from what I've read, Morrison is a much more complete shooter right out of the box.
it could be that given his size it makes sense to move Morrison to SG like Rip. with Okafor playing cleanup in the front court, even if quicker guards blow by him they won't necessarily get easy looks.

Rice works for the Blazers. He was in the gym during the workouts.

So Rice was allowed, but Barrett wasn't allowed?
Barrett said before the draft that he wasn't even allowed in to see the pre-draft workouts.

Re: "Blazers will kick themselves for passing on [Morrison]"
Rice is lame. Has a terrible memory. None of his rumors ever come true. I think he makes them up. I often wonder how he keeps his job. I guess it is because he is a decent in-game commentator.

Did you say decent in-game commentator? He is great. You obviously have not watched many broadcasts from around the NBA. I would say 3/4 of the other teams' on-air talent is atrocious! Unwatchable! Rice is classic. You have to know what to expect when you are about to watch Rice work. He's loose, he's fun, and he keeps things interesting. Alot of other teams color commentators are so dry and boring. Get the NBA league pass this season. Watch for a couple weeks, then come back on here and tell us how bad Rice is. Totally disagree!

He didn't blog it, he told it to me personally, about an hour and a half before the draft began.

Huh?
Barrett told me he did great about 20 minutes prior the draft.
