He is a good player but bad eyes for a talent just look at the players he drafted. First the worse 1st pic or any pic of all time Kwane brown after that Adam Morrison instead of Gay or Roy.

still makes him a pathetic front court exec and poor talent evaluator.

 

Morrison was OVERRATED, all he really did was score and did so at a terrible clip.

 

people put two things together, white player who can make baskets = next Larry Bird. each time you have a kid like this, White America gets a hard-on.

 

they said about the same with Van Horn when he came out (and when it comes down to it, at least KVH was marginally productive in his short playing career compared to Adam Morrison).

 

this has got to stop. Bird did more than just "score".
