Larry Bird says Morrison will be ROY!!!

[Dead_Real]

Bird, the Indiana Pacers president, has been on hand for most of Morrison\'s performances in this week\'s summer league, watching the rookie average 24 points a night through four games. Bird was flattered that Morrison has patterned his game after him, and he has some lofty praise for the 6-foot-8 small forward.
\"I\'ve heard [Morrison\'s emulated me], but I just think he has his own style,\'\' Bird said. \"He\'ll probably win Rookie of the Year with the talent that he has.Charlotte rookie Adam Morrison is the unquestioned star of this week\'s Pepsi Pro Summer League in Orlando (and a primary reason why the Magic\'s Web site has been inundated with more than 1 million visitors this week). But quite possibly no player has caused more of a stir than the player who could hardly get on the floor this past season for the Magic.

Take that haters...

I was told be for the draft not to even put Bird and Morrison in the same sentance .All i can say to you now is tell that to Bird.
Bird said hes probably rookie of the year.
Its time now to give the cats cradit for makeing the right draft choice in Morrison.
Addmit you made a mistake. Its still time to get on the Morrison ban wagon.

I think Larry Bird has been around the game long enough to know what hes talking about. If he says that Adam Morrison is rookie of the year material, then I believe him.
