The stretch run ahead will be a good test for the Morris twins. I must admit they have both surprised me this year, Markieff more than Marcus because I believed he'd never quit shooting 3's and go to work inside. Marcus hasn't curtailed his long range shooting but he's improved it some, enough to make it a plus.
However, I still don't rate them as above average at their positions at either end of the floor. I think they can improve but I want to see it before I worry about what kind of contract they deserve. Without improvement they are still backup players - good, solid ones but not starter material on a contending team. In fact I'd like to see them in the playoffs because I'm fearful that they will be physically overmatched in playoff basketball.
Agree with all of this.
