Yeah, Marion has the ugliest shot I've ever seen, and he misses more bunnies than Elmer Fudd. The fact that he can take the other teams best player and rarely need double team help is worth more than a few more points.
Biggest surprise? while he only averages 11.5 pts a game, he's shooting 49.9%. I think I can live with that

I concur, fine sir. I don't think we're really missing much in not getting offense from Marion. I would be upset if he were taking any more than 7-8 shots a game, MAX.
His job is to provide lock down defense, anything beyond that is a blessing, or a curse if you have to actually watch him shoot the ball
haha
