His game is at the rim via drives and garbage. I agree and I am not saying he was. I am saying Purdue people kept saying Eastern doesn't have to be a shooter just like many are about Morton. Now with no shooters a lot of Purdue people coming down on Eastern because he cant shoot. We all knew he couldn't as a Freshman just like Morton. If their fans expect him to be a great shooter at any time I think they will he let down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I said in some other threads it's ok if a kids shot isn't text book...but that kid's shot is broke...I mean when one goes in he is STEALING points. I think Morton does enough things well with the ball in his hands that he can help the offense...he isn't a detriment and ball stopper like Eastern....but I could be wrong...we will have to wait and see.

I think you hit the nail on the head here. Plus Morton is much more of a true PG than Eastern is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, Toiletmakers was my preferred euphemism when a certain level of decorum needed to be maintained. If those levels weren't required, my names for them generally involved unnatural acts being performed on barnyard animals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
