Morrison is Overrated in NCAA Brackets

Why does Adam Morrison get all the hype? They say Adam Morrison is a talented player, but all I see is a long-haired, out-of-shape athlete desperate to score for a team without any real talent to show for.

That is my assessment of one Adam Morrison, contrary to what legendary college hoops announcer, Dick Vitale, says about the Gonzaga star.

Dick Vitale, with everything he has accomplished in the world of color commentary, maybe is the most respected icon in all of college basketball.

However, the moment he branded Adam Morrison as the overall No.1 pick in the coming NBA Draft, plummeted his stature down from legendary status to mediocrity.

In fact, Vitale revels in overrated mediocrity with his recent tirade on Adam Morrison.

Adam Morrison is even being compared to the best pure shooters in the NBA. The most notable of which is Boston's own, Larry Bird. Adam Morrison is not even half as good a shooter as say, Dirk Nowitzki, and they're saying he's the next great white hope?

Adam might not even be the next Peja Stojakovic.

Understand, Morrison is a terrific college basketball player and deserving of co-player of the year with Duke's J.J. Redick.

Morrison will be a little better pro than two former terrific college players, Keith Van Horn and Wally Szczerbiak turned out to be. But Vitale and other college-loving analysts have gone madder than March when they go gaga over Morrison's NBA potential.

Adam Morrison is good but he's no Larry Bird.

Larry Bird can go toe-to-toe with the best of 'em. Morrison can do that but he just doesn't scare anyone but his coach.

His trash-talking tendencies are just plain goofy than intimidating. Maybe that's just something to do with his hairstyle that seems to be trapped in the rock n' roll era of the 80s. I don't know what's more pathetic than that.
