Adam Morrison Scouting Report:
InsideHoops.com: A wanna-be Larry Bird, and that's not a bad thing. Morrison's a scorer and shooter, with limited strength and not a lot of athletic ability (but athletic enough to score and win). Intense deterimination and drive. Plays real basketball, getting free, cutting, spacing the floor correctly and being involved. Can hit a wide variety of shots, not just jumpers. Creates for himself, or creates for a teammate and then moves to the proper place. An old-school throwback type of gutty player. His NBA position is small forward, or shooting guard.
