Oregon Live: Chad Ford reports Adam Morrison wowed the Bobcats in his workout against Memphis' Rodney Carney:

Adam Morrison had his first workout for an NBA team over the weekend. He flew to Charlotte and worked out against Memphis' Rodney Carney. A source in Charlotte said both worked out well but that it was Morrison who shined.

Why? The Bobcats wanted to see him play against a long, athletic player. The question on everyone's mind, much as with Redick, is whether he can continue to get and make his shot at the next level.

Morrison scored time and time again against Carney, prompting Carney to say after the workout, "A lot of people say, 'Oh, Adam can't go one-on-one.' Adam can go one-on-one. He is a very fierce competitor. He will make shots and is a very offensive-minded guy and will get down and score on you. I have nothing but good things to say about Adam."

From everything I'm hearing, the Bobcats were leaning toward Rudy Gay over Morrison before the workout. Do they still feel the same way now?

I think Gay is the way to go for the Bobcats..their fans should yell "WE WANT GAY"

the bobcats would be perfect if they decided to choose to be Gay then Morrison

I mean..getting Gay will be the best for them!

Anyone getting Gay in the NBA will be great.

yeah he's complete. but what scares me is that he didn't maximize his abilities while at college. he's going to have a rough 2 years. unless he has a good spl.

Rudy Gay is a scout's dream because he has shown flashes of dominance, has an excellent jumper and really turns heads when he wants to. If coaches know a guy has the talent, they just need to work on consistency. Could be an interesting pick for Charlotte, but Im not sure I take him over Morrison.

everyone forgets Gay plays excellent D and could possibly become a dominant 2 way player. Morrison doesn´t even have the potential to become a 2 way player.
