<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (DRob-50-Forever @ Jun 24 2006, 02:03 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>JJ Redick will have a hard time in the NBA because of his size. It has been done but the fact is he cannot create a shot for himself at all. Morrison can create and has a great size advantage, and as I said before has a position in the NBA. Morrison is also lacking on the defensive side of the ball but I believe he has the work ethic and drive to improve. This one is Morrison by a landside.</div>Your right, Morrison was better in college at creating a shot with the ball, and will probably be better in the NBA at creating his own shot with the ball. People that think just because he doesn't have a quick first step he wont be able to create, but there is more to creating your own shot with the ball than having a quick first step.I think people, especially on this board, make to big of a deal out of "not being able to create a shot for himself." They say the same thing when people try to downplay Marion around here, "he can't create his own shot." Well, they might not be good at creating their own shot with the ball in their hands, but they can create their own shot without the ball. Moving around, finding the open spaces on the floor, knowing how to run their men into off ball picks. All of this stuff goes into offense as well as dribbling to create your shot. Reggie Miller wasn't an overly great athlete compared to many other players in the leauge, he couldn't create overly well with the ball in his hands, but he did all of this stuff without the ball and was a great player in Indiana. Being able to create your own shot with the ball, is horribly overrated, and i think a major problem with american basketball these days. Everyone wants to do the stylish dribbling, and driving, and dunking. No one wants to be the one moving without the ball for the open shot.

When you say Morrison is a good overall player please tell me you mean good overall scorer because he doesn't do much other than that lol. LOL and no offense but you seem to have no clue about the draft at all.</div>my bad lol, i really shouldve mentioned the word 'offensive' in there, i watched gonzaga once or twice (college basketball coverage in the UK sucks) and youre right, its all on offense. 5.5 rebounds per game is nowhere near decent for his defense, he doesnt even average 1 blocked shot per game. For a guy who is 6'8, his defense is pretty bad. Scratch that, really bad. When i say hes a better rebounder, thats compared to Redick (2 a game).
I know rebounding is all about effort but I think his rebounding could improve if he somehow put on 20 or so pounds.

Yeah though i get what you mena when you say Morrison is a rebounder. You just meant hes better at it then Redick.
I think morrison will be better because he has size and he shoots just as good as reddick and i think he will be a better player

Can do everything</div>Heres another person who once again knows nothing about Morrison. He is not good all around. Why do people think that??? Hes a good all around scorer but thats it. He doesn't rebound well, he isnt a good passer, he cant defend a chair. Hes only a good scorer and leader and thats it.

A guy in a wheelchair would be better at defense than him. He is a good scorer and shooter. Sure is everything in basketball.

Same w/ you Jordan4pres. I don't know where you get the idea that morrison is a good defendre from. Honestly I think JJ is a better defender than Morrison is. Still though id easily take Morrison.</div>Morrison is better on D then JJ Redick. I am not saying Morrison is a great D guy, but he is better then Reddick. And over all Morrison is better, and can do more.

You have no idea how well Morrison plays D. And I was saying that age means nothing because ive seen people in here that are incredibly ignorant and theyre in college. So like anywhere from 18-22.

I have more knowledge than you and you dont even know fully what your saying cuz you havent watched Morrison. i guess you one of those older people showing stupidity like i said before.
