Also, the Lakers have interest in signing forward Markieff Morris if he is healthy, according to one person. The Lakers have a roster spot available after trading Zubac and Beasley.

How about the guy actually fits?

We need backup PF and small ball center?

This would be a great signing. Tough defense, Can hit the 3-ball on occasion and is a willing passer. I like this if it happens

Markieff sucks at threes. 33% on the year. He is not Marcus.

I think a few years ago it was a legit question, but now I think it's clearly Marcus. A little hard to tell though as Markieff has been in a bad environment the last few years.

It was always Markieff until Marcus joined the Celtics. Then it’s been Marcus all the way.

This


Marcus is 41% from three.

It's like the difference between Brook and Robin right now.

Marcus we could use...

The problem is we are filled with players who can hit the 3-ball on occasion.

That should be our team motto.

We need people who can hit the 3 ball period... not streaky players who can get lucky once in awhile.

If we already had a lot of shooters I would think Markieff would be fine... but we should get someone who can score when we've gone cold... not someone who's equally prone to dry spells.

Lack of shooting has been exaggerated because of our struggles due to injury. Bullock and Mascala should be enough after Zo returns(and hopefully shoots how he was pre injury).

With his recent diagnosis, do we want to sign him? We already have dealt with a number of injuries this season. Not sure we would want to add to that possibility.

lol those guys cost lot of money like Reddick or multi year contracts like Belly.

we are talking here about picking up a guy from waivers.

reality and perspective goes a long way
