Does anybody on this blog play online slots? Has anybody had a big win? I won over 5K but like an idiot lost 3K of it before I cashed out.

Sorry I meant one good season.. He’s not proven anything, Marco is much more proven at the professional level, so it’s a bash to your first round draft pick to play a guy who is as good a shooter but worse at everything else.

Dareedle.. He’s really had two good games.. not just two good seasons.. The fact is that he is undrafted and was for a reason.. the intagibles is where he hurts you, compared to Marco where he is a much better passer and has a better basketball IQ (very underated stat) morrow is turnover prone, and you can’t run the offense through him.. I think Morrow is back in the D League once they give marco a shot…

I don’t get this morrow conclusions after just 2 games, he is a VERY good shooter, that is not something anyone would argue with, but Marco EXPENDABLE? No.. Marco is as good of a shooter as morrow and Morrow is NOT more athletic, nor is he better at any other aspect of the game than Marco. Marco is a pure passer who understands the point guard position and has Jason Kidd like passing abilitites if implented… he is a much more expereinced player, and is your first round draft pick!!! Morrow was undrafted, so it would be a waste of talent to use him over Marco when Marco can contribute not only shooting, but assists, passing and experience.

Morrow seem to be a different type of player and scorer than the players mentioned above. This guy seems more fluid than and did not have to develop his shooting like Miller, Steve Smith,etc…

His strokes and movement in getting open seems natural. It would be interesting to watch within the next 5 games and then how he progresses (learns to play with his team) and fit in the flow of upcoming games.

After the Portland game, I still say Reggie Miller (less ball hoggin’)

I would put him in the Marquis Daniels category, another undrafted player that will make an impact on the league. Then again he could be the next Bobby Simmons, BC, Michael Redd … a pure shooter with a single good season who gets totally overvalued.

Having a “shooter” drop 37 points hasn’t been a recipe for success for the Warriors recently. Summer League isn’t the NBA but let’s at least keep the dreaming within reach of reality. After one good game the kid is being compared to 5 All-Stars/all time greats?

Joe Johnson
Michael Cooper
Glenn Rice
Reggie Miller
Michael Redd

Right now he’s closer to Marco Belinelli than any of those guys. Give the kid some time to grow into those outrageous expectations. Sheesh.

***But hot damn that was a hella good game from the kid!

Marcus,

What do you think of the comparison of Anthony Morrow to a much raw-er Michael Redd? They’ve both got quick, pretty releases and can put the ball on the floor. I think the Warriors really found a gem in Morrow. Not everyone can drop in 37 in an NBA game.
