ammo ahead of schedule

[chrbal]

Morrison, i'm rooting for. May, I gave up on after his rookie year.

I think Adam could/would make a good 6th who could "potentially" develop into a starting Small Forward option should the team look to trade Wallace.

That was a really great article, good insight into the mind of Adam Morrison.

Here's hoping he really does mean the things he says about trying too hard during his rookie campaign.

He's a basketball junkie so hopefully being forced to sit out a whole season will help him get his head straight and he comes out on fire..............and plays D!

"He's got a high basketball IQ. He's a gym rat, which I love," Brown said after watching Morrison consistently hit jumpers in drills at UNLV's Cox Pavilion. "We have just got to coach him up."

"That's the biggest thing for me, to trust the knee," Morrison said. "It's healthy, it's there. The doctors did a great job, I rehabbed right. It's just all up here."

"He even got a little calf muscle now," said Brown, who shouted instructions and criticism in his first full practice since getting fired by the New York Knicks in 2006. "When I first saw him, he had none."

"He's got a great basketball mind and he loves to teach," Morrison said. "That just plays right into the hands of a young team. I think that's something we need -- somebody to teach. I think it's going to be great for us."

I'm optimistic about Morrison. He is still very talented, if he can calm himself down a bit, I remain convinced he could still be a 18-20ppg guy.

*I will remember forever seeing him miss a shot and turning to Bernine and asking "Should I shoot?"
Bernie gave him a look that I translated as: "If you have to ask, the answer is no"



* - can't remember if I've told this story before, may have gone Grandpa Simpson on this one.

The funny thing about that story is that if the coach were Nellie, the answer would be "If you have to ask, the answer is yes". And he'd be asking the question from the bench, which is where Nellie puts you if you don't shoot when you're open.
