I'm sick of being on the fence. I'm picking my pony. He's Adam Morrison and this is his bandwagon.

Put your weight behind it.

I'd rather have a good player that cares than a great player that doesn't.

Team Mao

Wow, that's bold. Repped, not because I agree, but I love boldness.

edit: what the hell is the point of that spreading rep around bull----. Christ.

First thing that comes to mind:
"I'd rather have Adam Morrison than Tyrus Thomas."

"I really like him...to me he's already pretty special," Mavericks star Dirk Nowitzki said after continually getting beat to the basket by Bosh. "He's going to be a great player in this league."

"Chris Bosh really has emerged to be a star in this league. There are more than the top three (in the 2003 draft)." - Dwyane Wade

I love everything about him, I love his game, I love his work ethic. He definitely has my approval - Kobe Bryant"

I am not sure he is the perfect fit in Toronto, but he is my favorite player in the draft!

I would not be upset seeing him lace them up for us.

As of today, Morrison is only working out for Toronto, Chicago, Charlotte and Portland.

Morrison's agent, Mark Bartelstein, guarantees that Morrison's diabetes will be a non-issue in the NBA with a regiment of proper dieting and insulin.

Team Mao

This is going to sound really bad, but after watching quite a few Zaga games this year and seeing the highlight reels of Bargnani, the two players seem somewhat similar. The biggest difference being the 4 inch height difference.
-They're both really crafty on offence, not super quick or amazing leapers but score in many different ways. Sometimes it doesn't look all that pretty, but effective.
-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.

On a team that lacks leadership and intesity the Raps could do a lot worse than AMMO.

Kudos for Speedy for coming out and declairing his pick for the Raps.

I'm still on the fence, but AMMO is someone who I've wanted on this team for quite a while.



I love this pic, gonna use it as my next avy.

That's the biggest diff for me, is that I've seen Morrison hit amazing clutch shots for two years now, I haven't had that luxury with Bargnani.

sorry to ruin your party boys...

give me an Aldridge.

ATLien

I don't think he's going to be that great, which is why I had to subscribe to this thread. Just in case on the rare occasion.. that I'm right.

pmac34

I dont care for Morisson, but if Aldridge doesnt want to be in t.o. gimme AMMO!

He's got the best intangibles in the draft. From a tangible standpoint he doesn't seem to fit the Raptors (we have scoring, need defense), but we need the intangibles too. I don't think Kobe would have scored 81 if we had Morrison on the team. 81 points doesn't only come from a lack of defense, it's from a lack of intensity, and that's what Morrison would bring.

However, that said, I think there are better options first overall.

There is a really good Katz article up on ESPN.com right now (link) that takes you through a day in the life of Adam in the weeks leading up to the draft.

Interesting to note he's been working out with Devean George and Danny Granger, two long-limbed defensive players with shooting range. Also gets the info out that Ammo might be a spokesperson for Type-1 Diabetes, much like Charlie is the spokesperson for Alopecia Areata.
