His shooting has been off, but he's rebounding well, moving the ball well, and he's actually done a surprisingly decent job protecting the rim.
Marco has had one meh game (MIL), one solid game (MIA), and one poor game (BOS). Still think folks are weirdly critical of him, he gives us another ball handler that protects the ball well and does a nice job facilitating ball movement. Need to get more consistent shooting from him, but you can already see why we thought he would be a good fit.
Hawes is doing a decent job of rebounding and being a big body inside, but he has been taking a ton of awful shots (sub 40%fg) and getting some absurd turnovers.
Marco is averaging 8/2/1 in 26mpg and shooting 35%fg/25%3pt. He is also horrible on defense. I'm not sure how it is weird that people are critical of him, especially considering he was similarly bad last season.
