Re: The Ammo bandwagon

If the Raptors get AmMo than they might aswell do all in their power to acquire AK47, or else it just doesn't seem worth it.

-They both have a really high release on their shot, making it hard to block.
-They're both white.
-They're both lanky.
-Both expected to be defensive liabilities at the offensive end.
-I haven't followed Bargnani enough to know about his demeanor and work ethic, which really set Ammo apart from a lot of other players, so I can't make a comparison on this.

Okay, it's late and maybe there's nothing to this. But does anyone else see this.
I don't know about Ammo over Aldridge, but I'd take him over Bargnani. If they are in fact equal talents it would be a toss-up, but Ammo is a SG/SF, while Bargnani is a PF/SF. Anyone who knows the Raps at all knows that we are much deeper at 4 than at 2.

Re: The Ammo bandwagon

Sorry Speedy, had to do it.....



next great white hype? or just overhyped?

sorry can't co-sign with this pick

I'd take both Gay and Roy ahead of this guy, I think Morrison's game will not translate as well to the NBA as these two.

i said it in the past and i said it again... the guy spent the last couple of seconds of the game crying instead of playing ball... they coould've still won the game, but he decided to cry...

There's a good chance the Portland Trailblazers or another team will trade up to the number one spot and select Adam Morrison. Sitting at the 4th position, Portland fears another team will make a move with a top 3 team (Charlotte perhaps) to grab Morrison in front of them. Portland could offer Jarrett Jack and an additional first rounder to move up.
http://nbadraft.net/draftbuzz060.asp

I think they are basing this more on the prospect of someone else trading up to grab Morrison. I like AMMO, I just don't think he is a Colangelo type or the best option available. If he can prove himself in workouts (I love the fact that he is taking on the top prospects) then I may reconsider my stance.

I'll take that deal.

Sorry. I'm not up for this either. Of course his agent is gonna say his illness won't be a problem. I'm not going to debate it, but what else is he going to say?

I'm for whatever BC wants. He has a complete vision. If that's AM, so be it. But AB, JJ and a future first sounds better to me as a hypothetical.


.net also talked about moving down more than once. 1 to 4 then maybe to 7-9.(?)

I know I was in this camp a LONG time ago. Unprotected 07 first, Jack, Shelden Williams + something else?

BC still talks about D and toughness, I don't know ****, but BC certainly knows Shelden via Daddy and MK.

Morrison next to Charlie = big defensive liability.
