Adam Morrison

[private joker]

So did anyone watch that Gonzaga-Oklahoma St. game? The announcers were saying "Adam Morrison is the best player in college basketball." And it's something I've heard before, as well. Can this be true? He did score 25 of their 64 pts. and hit the game winning Trey with 2 seconds left, off balance and guarded by 2 leaping defensemen and kissing it off the glass, but still...

This is the only game I've seen him play. Is Adam Morrison the best player in college basketball?

He is good, and quite possibly the best in college hoops this year, but that shot was a total gutshot hit.

He is good. He hit a lucky shot which Iggy has now mentioned in three threads. He is still good.

[IggyWH]

I felt like I needed to repeat it. Too often, people watching sports just take what announcers say as "fact". They both blew their load off of that shot, so I need to bring people back to reality that is was a horrible shot that luckily fell.

[scott8]

I agree like hell with your general point.

The Vitale effect.

This is the guy with the worst mustache ever, right?

I don't think he's as good as everyone else seems to. I think he's one of the top five, but not number one.

He might be the best now, but I'm not sure if he translates well to the pros, he reminds me of a Dirk/Gasol type, but I think it's rare that someone can make that style work, they usually end up being out of position for their whole careers.

He's also a diabetic, pretty cool that he can overcome it to get to where he is.
