This guy is money! He carried Gonzaga on his back last night as the rest of their team looked like deer in headlights. He is definitely the best player I have seen in the tournament and he reminds me of Larry Bird.

[mediocre man]

As long as he doesn't think he can play SG. He will be a decent SF in the league, but please don't insult Larry Legend by comparing Morrison to him.

 

[white360]

There will never be another Larry The Legend, just like Lebron isn't the next Jordan

 

[lalooska]

He's more Larry Hagman than Larry Bird. He's uncoordinated and slow with a great shooting touch. The same resume as the other Bulldog-alums.... Dickau and Frahm.

I didn't say that he's as good as Bird, but he definitely reminds me of him. His offense is terrific, inside and out.

Honestly, comparing players to other players is a waste of time. Style and talent is usually unique, and almost impossible to compare.

What I DO think you can compare is that special "it" that a lot of the best players have had over the years. MJ had it, Larry had it, Magic had it, and I can definitely see it in LeBron. The scary part is, I've seen it in Bassy as well.

I see the "it" factor in Morrison. I don't see it in Telfair.

sweet, he's a spokanite!

anyone else think he looks a lot better with shorter hair? I mean, with long hair, he looks like one of those punks who we all know and dislike.

you long haired hippy person!

but you do in Jefferson...

That actually sounds like Bird :clown:

 

[tlong]

but you do in Jefferson...

I think Jefferson will have a more productive career in the NBA than Telfair.

 

[white360]

Don't matter how the hair is, if can play

 

[Dan]

I think Jefferson will have a more productive career in the NBA than Telfair.

He might, but thats really not the point. It depends on how he works with the Trail Blazers (and how the team does). Not how he does compared to Jefferson.

Besides, just because you think Jefferson will have a more productive career, doesn't mean he will. It's too early to tell.

 

[white360]

Who's Jefferson ?

 

[tlong]

Who's Jefferson ?

Al Jefferson. He's a power forward that was selected at #14 by the Celtics.

 

[white360]

Thos guy then

I see the "it" factor in Morrison. I don't see it in Telfair.

This goes to the crux of the "it" issue: it's purely subjective.

Before they "prove" they have "it", it's impossible to prove. After they win a bunch, it's irrelevant.

Does Rasheed Wallace have "it"? Does Kevin Garnett? I don't see how it really matters.

True dat. However, I believe this is why Nash picked Telfair.

 

[Utherhimo]

with the short hair he is just another basketball player, the hair you see Adam Morrison!
