I don't think he was brought in to play the post. Maybe when going small but I believe he will be groomed to play SF.
I have no doubt Pop can make a player out of him if he is willing to come in and work hard. Those reverse layups were great, instead of trying to power the ball down with a dunk, he used smarts and finesse to go up and under the basket. The guy guarding him had no prayer of stopping the shot. He about hit his head on the rim, but the smart play was up and under the basket for the easy lay in thanks to his great athletic ability. Hard to say what the future holds for Marcus with the Spurs, but astute observers have taken notice of this as another potentially solid FO move.

I think he was brought in as a 4, but I do hope he can play alongside any duo of Tim/Dice/Theo/Ian/Blair/Bonner, that 5 would be huge!!!!
I hope he averages Bonners minutes or more the first 20 or so games of the season, but I want Blair and Ian to play more than he does.
