I really think there is a potential these twins do some strange switcherooo.

Okay,i think we are as ready as were ever gonna get, for the big showdown. We needed some actors to battle against marcus, Montrez etc.

If he can keep up that 40% mark from the three, he'll be very useful. Otherwise, he's still an upgrade over Dudley if we have injuries to Lebron, Kuz or AD.

The eye test seems to lie with Markieff. I've always had a good impression after watching him, but advanced stats don't like him very much.

So far from what I've seen from Markieff, I havent really been impressed . I hope he is a good signing.
The only thing positive I see from him is his image /mugshot shown for NBA profile. He has that 'dog' look and that you cant mess with him. lol

He is the best statistical above the break shooter on the team. That is an option Bron, Rondo, AD have not had as an outlet for this team

I hope that look translates onto the court, because that’s exactly what this team needs. Lebron and AD are superstars but soft at heart. They aren’t killers unless pushed to the brink. They need someone that’s gonna gonna go out there and **** people up no matter the occasion.

I notice Marcus seems to start stuff while markief tends to protect or react, but both DO have that dog and if you don't know that I question how much you watch basketball outside of the lakers.

We do need some Dog! Many of our top teams in the past had some type of enforcer. This is the best we gonna get as of now, lets get em in the gym, build the chemistry, and prepare for the fight to take down #17.

I agree, we need to add some element of Metta World Peace on the roster, someone needs to be the enforcer. The Clippers will look to push us around so we need to push back.

Lmao of course those two have a fight highlight reel.

They both seem a bit more like hot headed brawl starters than actual enforcers. Only a few times did either of them pick on a person larger than them. No, he’s no MWP. Best available? Sure.

Didn't see the game, how did he play?

Beethoven · Post #36 » by **Beethoven** » Wed Feb 26, 2020 6:06 pm

^ He was just all right. Missed a couple 3pters , made some key team plays , and was active and fighting for defensive position. I can see slightly a different team dynamic w him in there w kuzma sliding down to a lower spot. i guess
It was just one game so cant get an overall feel for him yet.

StarneyBinston · Post #37 » by **StarneyBinston** » Wed Feb 26, 2020 6:42 pm

Makes sense, couldn't expect too much after such a short time and just one game, but good to know he was active, especially on the defensive end!

Anything Marcus can do keif can do. And you just have to love that. Great addition. And he's going to become a reliable open shot maker. Best on the team behind kcp. Danny green sucks at fouling.

I wouldn’t really call any of those “fights”

Kieff made a huge block that led to Caruso going off. He did great.
