    I remember that guy, he was the bus driver that led us to Anthony Davis!
    It's that the Hornets unashamedly quit so quickly in Game 4 after fans in New Orleans showed up this season with greater regularity than the team could have ever dreamed, shaming misinformed know-it-alls like me who kept telling you that local residents couldn't possibly invest their time and money into something as trivial as rooting for the local basketball team while still recovering from the devastation of Hurricane Katrina. - Mark Stien ESPN

    Argh. Just finished watching Bulls-Celtics, and one of the commentators said Belinelli is finally getting a chance to play big games for a good team and then he mentioned how much he has learned the importance of defense.

    That was a lucky shot. If it was a straight up shot he likely would've missed it.

    Eh, Marco's having a bad season. It was a good move on our part to let him walk.

  12. #37
    that was a fluke shot, and did you see the possession he did before that.. the dribble up hold the ball for 10 seconds and shoot a three off the side of the backboard.. nearly lost them the game the absolute idiot.

    Roger Mason is doing more than enough to replace him.

    Emeka Okafor - Joe Smith - Carmelo Anthony - Manu Ginobili - Jason Williams

    Al Jefferson - James Posey - Aaron McKie - Shaun Livingston

    Mason is not close to Belinelli. Belly's defense is even much better.

    I didn't even think about Mason but as far as shooting the ball, I'd surely take Anderson over Belinelli. And Anderson is a better rebounder too.

    Mason is shooting the ball way better this season and Marco is poor defensively. Mason is doing whatever Marco did except shooting better. Marco's defense was never good here. Mason is a big reason why the team is playing better.

    I don't know the stats, but I have been much more comfortable with Mason shooting than I ever was with Marco. Mason has made some big time defensive plays lately, too. Belinelli was a serviceable starter for us, though; I will give him that. He is really a backup and has started at SG for like 3 seasons now.

    Agreed.

    Not to mention that Roger has leadership....something that Marco lacked!

    Marco's doing the same thing in Chicago that he did here- getting hot for several games and playing well then getting cold for a stretch. Only difference is that they have a competent SG (Hamilton/Hinrich/Butler) to play smart when Marco is in a funk, unlike us who were starting him.

    Overall I definitely would prefer Marco over Mason as our backup SG, but aside from age there's not a ton of difference.
