The ‘Stache is Going Pro

April 18th, 2006 | Posted by Matt

NBA fans, Adam Morrison’s mustache and mop top are coming to a city near you. Morrison hasn’t made it exactly official just yet, but the NCAA scoring leader and hippie-wannabe is expected to announce Wednesday that he will be entering the NBA Draft. And I can’t say I blame him for it.

This past year, Morrison and J.J. Redick were like two peas in a pod. Their names were always said in the same breath and the comparisons were neverending. Now, with both players going pro, the comparisons will not cease. This rivalry is definitely not that of Kobe vs. Shaq, or LeBron vs. Dwayne. It’s a very unique one, but unfortunately for both players, it’s temporary. There is just no way it will continue on the next level. If anything, Morrison will finally outshine Redick once and for all.

A year from now, Morrison will be making millions of dollars as an 8-10 point scorer coming off the bench. Plus, he better shave - because the Adam Morrison look was so 2006.
