Why does he have to be compared other white guys? :wink:

Dude is a scoring machine. He doesn't look like the prototypical player but he gets the job done.

Why is Jason White called Williams Chocolate?

Seriously...that's like calling McNabb a Chocolate Cracker.

Keith Van Horn never could create his own shot. Morrison can. If I were gonna compare him to someone at this point, I think it'd be a combination of a few people. Magic, with that high-assed loopy dribble that should be ripped every time, but isn't... Rip Hamilton for the way he moves without the ball... and Larry Bird for his defense. (ie - good rebounder, can't move his feet at all)

He looks like the kind of player that has played a ton of pick up basketball. Yeah, he's fundamentally sound, but he also plays with a lot of instinct. That's always been a knock I've had against many of my fellow white b-ball brethren...that they're too "formulaic" in their style. Morrison is just an all round great player, physically and mentally.
