    I think Morris will be a good addition but yeah, using him right is key. Ideally, he will take some pressure off Kuz and bring some toughness along with whatever numbers he puts up.

    im just hoping his addition will help the lineup w/o james, kuz/morris/ad should either extend leads or maintain it n if behind just keep the deficit close

    He should be playing, right? When it comes to mini-Shaq, I'd just let him score 30. Take care of Ingram and the rest and it's an easy win actually.

    Dwight should be guarding Zion, IMO. He's tall enough to cause some problems with Zion and strong enough to still hold his ground. I'd expect Dwight to foul him hard as well. I'd reckon we will see LeBron guard Zion as well just to get the fans going. AD on Zion might be a mistake... One bump from Zion and AD might fly into the 3rd row. We don't need to risk that. What is the word on Markieff playing tonight? We have a very tough schedule ahead and having him get familiar and settled would be huge.

    Imagine, if Marcus and Kieff just switched and we actually got Marcus for free.

    Give me Kieff. He's the all around better player it sure seems to me looking at this comparison.

    No disrespect, but Zion will blow by Dwight like he’s standing still. Zion is freakishly quick for his size.

    I actually wouldn’t call him mini Shaq... I just read a report that during his layoff while recovering from knee surgery that he is playing right now at 300 lbs! Shaq was right around 315. That’s insane!! Nothing mini about that! Yessir!

    Dare him to shoot. If he makes it, you live with it. Stick Dwight under the FT line. Zion can blow pass anyone out there. What you're saying doesn't prove anything.
