Snoop Dogg

According to The Vertical, “Morris, a mild-mannered guy who could snap in an instant, would be Snoop Dogg.”

This is such a good quote for Morris. Although Wall led the team in technicals, it seemed that Morris got a technical every game, mostly from arguing his consistent foul trouble.

Morris face always screams mild-mannered, and it’s sometimes only possible to tell his mindset by reading his lips.

If you don’t think he can “snap in an instant”, relive his moment with ex-teammate Archie Goodwin, when on the Suns.

This instance with a referee, is one of the most mild manner ejections I’ve ever seen, save for a few choice words.

As he’s grown older, his “napping” has seemed to decrease, similar to his alter ego Snoop Dogg.

Snoop, possibly because of his vast medicinal intake, is one of the most mild mannered rappers in history. Whether he’s chillin till the next episode or sippin’ on Gin and Juice, don’t be fooled cause Snoop can still snap at any moment.

Dr. Dre

According to The Vertical, Beal would be Dr. Dre “because there is no Death Row without Dr. Dre.”

Although that could be said about Wall and Morris also, the overall comparison to Dr. Dre works well. First, both are built like football players.

Dre’s solo debut album was a huge hit, and unlike most albums, he let other rappers get some shine on their own songs.

Beal, at times, has been too unselfish, and I’ve spent hours screaming for him to shoot more threes. Two years ago he attempted four three pointers a game. This season, he averaged over seven three point attempts.

Maybe this comparison is much more straightforward though. Dr. Dre has one of the highest net worths in hip-hop. Meanwhile, Beal signed a huge max contract last summer, making him the 12th highest paid player in the NBA.

Beal also may be one of the only people who loves St. Louis, as much as Dre loves California.
