Marc Gasol is a great passing center who knows how to play the game the right way, but he is vastly overrated due to the lack of skilled big men in this league today. He has a silky smooth short jumpshot as well as a decent post game to go along with great defense, but nothing that makes him deserving of any "MVP" talk. He's a just a good solid Center, ala Brad Miller with the only difference being that he's not afraid of contact. He's on a great team where he fits perfectly which speaks volumes.
Did somebody mention Brad Miller?

The past few minutes shows us that as long as we have a decent offense, the thing that will get us ahead are STOPS. We just stopped Marc Gasol, and now we are up by 4.

Defense wins in the NBA.

Oh blah. I wish Brad Miller was 1/10th as good as Marc is.

I'm not overrating anyone. Marc's impact on the game defensively is absolutely bonkers. It's irreplaceable honestly and he's the best defensive C and one of the best defensive players period we've seen in a long, long time. Add on to the fact that he's a legit #2 option, a top 3 passing big, shoots 82% from the FT and gets 6 FTA/game, there are very players who impact a game as much as he does.

Hitting that corner three like Ben did (or any 3 on a Cuz kickout) on a consistent basis literally could be the difference for us next season in becoming a playoff team or not. If teams have to start respecting that we can hit that with a consistent basis, it's going to open so many lanes for Cuz in the paint and make our offense damn near impossible to stop.

McLemore really likes that corner 3. He's decent everywhere else. McLemore needs to practice slashing, not necessarily ball-handling. BHling will be for Stauskas.

Just my amateur opinion.
