If everything, and I mean EVERYTHING, breaks right for Redick, he can be a poor man's Rip Hamilton in the pros or a destitute man's Reggie Miller. More than likely, he's a Dell Curry/Dale Ellis type; come off the bench, light it up from the outside for 20-25 minutes a night and try not to be embarassed on defense. Maybe he can progress to being a Vinnie Johnson type, where he comes off the bench, fills it up from anywhere inside about 25 feet and plays at least competent defense.
Morrison should be a much better pro than that. I refuse to give in to the Larry Bird comparisons, which are primarily based on the fact that Morrison is a talented, white small forward. Bird was an exponentially better passer than Morrison (no shame in that, Bird was probably a better passer than about 99% of the guys who have ever played the game of basketball), as well as a better defender. But Morrison can score from anywhere inside 25 feet and does have a fairly complete game. He certainly seems willing to work on his deficiencies; he's progressed quite a bit as a player. I'm thinking Shawn Marion with less rebounding and explosiveness and a better jump shot. A better comparison escapes me at the moment.

And while on the level I coach, Redick (Type) would carry me, I much prefer and enjoy coaching a more complete player that makes everyone better.
