    Default Is Adam Morrison the worst #3 pick of the modern era?

    '93: Anfernee Hardaway

    '94: Grant Hill

    '95: Jerry Stackhouse

    '96: Sharef Abdur-Rahim

    '97: Chauncey Billups

    '98: Raef LaFrentz

    '99: Baron Davis

    '00: Darius Miles

    '01: Pau Gasol

    '02: *Mike Dunleavy

    '03: Carmelo Anothny

    '04: Ben Gordon

    '05: Deron Williams

    '06: The Great White Chump

    * = "Maybe" the exception - but at least Dunleavy shows hustle and heart

    Damn thats a nice bunch of players, Morrison is just going into his 2nd year and i hope to see that fire and shooting touch he had in college. But to be honest the only one RIGHT now is Mike Dunleavy.
    But im like Ziggy i hope a new coach brings out the college Morrison.


    Thanks Ammofan!

    I'd take Adam over Dunleavy, Miles and Raef Laefrenz.

    Maybe Adam will fall into the category of guys like Chauncey Billups & Deron Williams. Guys that didn't look that great their rookie season but turned out to be solid players.

    I'm sorry but there is NOBODY worse than Darius ("I Overslept") Miles.

    Slam, I'll be the first person to admit that his play has been far less than what I hoped for when he was drafted, but its too early to declare him a failure... Now if he shoots 37% next season, then I'm on board with you.

    I still don't understand why we don't get these exact same gripes over Ray's shooting. And hes shot under 40% for 2 seasons now.

    At least Adam isn't a cancer like Darius Miles or just so so throughout the pro's like Dunleavy, so I would say he's not the worst pick, but things could change. Hell, he could turn out to be one of the best, although I have my doubts.

    i'd say dunleavy and lafrentz have been bigger busts than morrison, but i have noticed it seems that morrison rarely hustles down the floor and (obviously) doesn't seem to try very hard on defense. maybe if he tried harder he would be better.

    I'm with you Fromage, the kid has a great competitive spirit and he's just a rookie making huge adjustments, bigger than most with the diabetes and moving across country. Of course most of the guys on that list are going to look better than Adam right now, but a more fair comparison would be comparing these guys' rookie seasons to Adam's. I can definitely remember Baron Davis coming off the bench in those Hornet playoff years and not being able to hit an open jump shot to save his life while averaging 7-8 points a game. Give Adam a break.
