    I think MCW will mesh well with Harden and the starters in these next 3 games. He handles the ball better, he sees the floor better and attacks better than Ennis. I think he will become the key to unlocking the best starting lineup.

    If we had MCW in the WCF, we would have won 4-1.

    Unless he starts knocking down threes, he is not a long term fit with the starters

    He's a huge liability and I don't see him sticking in the rotation for much longer. I hope you are right of course.

    Man, bro I know I sometimes give you a hard time for being negative(if you even remember or care) buuuuut maaaaaan, I dont if you want MCW as your starting point for being positive haha.

    That being said, I really really want you to be right.

    He's not gonna be a starting PG. He's a wing. Expect Gordon to start this game too.

    He needs to be a backdoor slasher when either Harden or Gordon drives. That's all I want him to do at this point.

    mcw and "wing" is just cringe worthy. so what exactly is him being on the wing doing that is helping the rockets get a W. I guess it must be all that gravity hes pulling the defense towards out there. The spacing he's creating is just doing wonders to the Rockets

    Maybe the good thing about having him out there with the starters is that he's going to handle the ball less and run/cut more.

    Alright, lets see how it goes. We played him at wing in the preseason, if he goes back to that level of play, you'll be vindicated for sure.

    He can actually pass the ball and dribble. Something our wings haven't had since Chandler Parsons.

    Defense is about intelligence and commitment. I think MCW could easily tool his game to be like an Iggy. Iggy is also horribad at threes too. So hey, there's that.

    That's the point. He doesn't have to create for anyone, he's the 4th fiddle but can at least dribble the ball to the basket. He's not a primary or secondary ball handler.

    there is no point. he can pass and dribble doesn't mean anything when he sucks as a overall player and does not fit this team and what it does

    what's he dribbling to? oh, waiting guys around the basket bc he can't shoot work a lick

    this hyper scrub will dribble into the paint, and if he's able to avoid getting swatted by gobert, he'll just brick the layup anyways. and with regard to passing, he has some of the worst tunnel vision i've ever seen. so many times he's missing teammates wide open under the rim when he makes those headless chicken charges towards the basket
