I don't know all the detailed info on him but it seems to me the guy only played against sub-par teams during the year. When it came time to play against the real teams, he sucked. He looks like a Kelvin Cato when he played at Iowa State. ???
First off, I am not a big fan of Chris Marcus, however the argument for him is that he is a BIG, WIDE body that can be the center for a team desperately in need of a center (basically every team in the league, save for Lakers, Spurs and Heat). The other thing is that people believe he will be able to put his body on Shaq whom his body-type resembles. Personally, I think the guy is way too slow, and is not the right fit for the Rockets. I'd rather get a defensive-minded three who could be a threat on offense. For more information on Chris Marcus, look @: http://nbadraft.net/profiles/chrismarcus.htm
