My post was his playoff career averages.

He's had two good games and 11 shitty ones.

I would take Beli over Eric Gordon any day.

- millions of dollars cheaper
- good work ethic
- rarely injured
- not a wimp
- clutch

2 games does not a career make.

You just said Marco Belinelli is the leader of the Bulls. Since you seem to think that a healthy Marco is borderline all-star, I don't think it'd be too ridiculous for you to call your shot, go out on a limb, and predict EIGHT WHOLE PPG in the Heat series.

I'll take the under.

Because it was a bad move. Which is something Demps has proven to be excellent at doing.

Marco should have been resigned. In NBA dollars he comes extremely cheap and adds more value than about 80% of the Hornets current D-Leauge caliber roster who make more money.

Are you arguing Belinelli hasn't been clutch for the Bulls? Did you watch game 7?

He has also hit 3 or 4 other game winners this season as well (since some are only focused on regular season)

No, he's saying that he wasn't clutch in the 146 games he played for us

He shot his career low from the 3 and nearly matched his career low from the field this year.

Weebie - I didn't think it was possible but I think that 75% of this board actually feels bad for you and your evaluation of NBA talent. You came to an actual basketball board with Pro-Belinelli smack.

Beli played in the playoffs for us too, and he was hot garbage.

I guarantee you that if Belinelli did what he did in games 6 and 7 for the Hornets this year (had they have made the playoffs of course) then this board would be full of smiley faces bowing down to him and dancing bananas.

Ask someone to explain big words before you use them.

Also, what "we" are talking is about is

quote:

Just another bad move by Demps for letting Marco walk for nothing. Dude has been in beast mode lately and has become the leader of the Chicago Bulls in the playoffs this year. He was extremely clutch in both games 6 and 7. I hated to see him go especially when you consider he was only asking for about $3.5-4 million.


Also, he's making $2m on a 1y deal . . . so that is what he's worth as it was gotten on the player market, as restricted as it is.

Players like Belinelli come a dime a dozen. He would have made the Hornets only marginally better this season, if at all. He really isn't a very good player, and certainly isn't the leader of the Bulls. GTFO with that.

I said the same things about Beli when he was on the team, so you can save your homerism garbage.

He contributes NOTHING other than scoring, and he has less than desirable shooting percentages. He had a good couple of games. Let's see if he can do it consistently--doubtful. There's real evidence to support that.

...career PER of 11.6

On this, we can agree.

The regular season is kind of important.

quote:

he has been unbelievably clutch and has lifted the Bulls up


So we're talking about a two game sample size vs. the rest of his career.

Because most of us don't recognize Marco Belinelli as clutch shooting guard . . . kk. You do realize, don't you, that the Williams and Demps made their decision regarding Beli based upon his performance here, right?

You have issues, son. Not kidding. I'm worried about you. A troll, typically, is not as utterly fricked as you are . . . so I'm genuinely concerned about your well being.

Well, that's only partially true. I really don't give a rat's arse about your well being.
