And Marcus appears to be the most unassuming guy on the bench. Just goes in an does his work when his number is called and then waits patiently for the next call to go in the game. I get the feeling he might be the smartest guy on the floor in terms of knowing where he is supposed to be on offense and especially defense. And I loved his play in the TT game where on DEFENSE, he head faked a man, not even his, into a bad pass. I hope we get to know more about who he is. Seems like a quiet but efficient enigma. Will be really fun to watch him develop.

I recommend everyone read the nice article porthawk posted.

I've been high on Garrett since day 1. The kid works hard, hustles, and want to learn. It would be no surprise at all to me if he wasn't our next Devonte/Frank in a couple years.

It will be fun watching him become a major headache for opposing offences. I've on occasion seen flashes of MC playing passing lanes. He has just been a bit slow to get the steal- something experience and AH could help with.
