I agree. My KOng comparison was just towards his energy, defensive and rebounding capabilities. Think Marek is more athletic, and skilled of course. Both are just guys who have that high motor. Loved KO, but this kid is KO on steroids. Not as physically mature, but can do a lot more on the court. KO did his work by never taking a second off, and playing his arse off.

Didn't even wanna respond to this again, but feel like I'm the poster child here for the narrative that Marek can't shoot. Was basing my opinions off minimal tape, and numbers we had to look at. Also threw out the 30-35% number from 3, which isn't too shabby so I never thought he couldn't shoot. Just a complete guess, as I said, with how well his numbers may be.

We all know we need a shooter at the 3, and were hoping for Tucker as he's a knockdown shooter. I'd rather get Marek, and have said that. I'm not arguing, or anything as you are one of the best around. Just think my words were misconstrued a bit. Now this narrative is out there that the board thinks he can't shoot. I'd rather not be looked at as having started that fake news, as jordoo would call it, is all.

Anyway, carrying on. Not much more to say about his game. Love it, and another big thank you to Cusesky for digging deep for us that are losing it just trying to find anything to talk about. Just time to wait, and hope that he ends up here.
