I just wanted to make a topic about this (italian) player, cause i think he's a real skilled PG/SG (i talked about him back in his draft days..). In the last week he's finally getting enought playing time to show his real potential.
In the last 5 games he's averaging 15.4 points in 28 minutes, shooting .400% from 3pts and .500% from 2pts. Plus 3 assists per game and 3.6 rebounds.
Not bad, uh? ;)

we're fuckin proud of marco 8)

Yeah. Yesterday he scored 27 points with 6 assists in his second game started in his career.

NOT BAD 8)

Nothing to get excited about...he plays for Don Nelson. ANY baller who can hit a shot can get 20+ points easy in his system.
undrafted rooked, Anthony Morrow, scored 37 points earlier this season
undrafted rookie, Rob Kurz, scored 20 points with 7 rebounds 2 steals and 3 blocks earlier this season
undrafted sophomore, CJ Watson, scored 23 points with 6 rebounds 5 assists and 3 steals this season
not to mention, anyone who plays against Golden State looks like an all-star
I'm not doubting that Belinelli is good...however, until I see him flourish in a real basketball system that isn't known for inflating stats, I still view him as another Sarunas Jasikevicius. Great European player - borderline NBA talent....PeACe

Actually it is. For me and italians, it is. I know you americans have players like Kobe Bryant, Melo, Iverson, KG, Pierce, etc.. and you're used to it, but we italians only have 3 players in the NBA, and everytime they play well, IT IS something to get excited about. For us. I just wanted to share it, since like you said it's not a news so important for the rest of the world. It's like mauzip talking about AZ ;D
Nobody gives a fuck about AZ (but 2-3 users), but it's still curious to see how AZ is doing, because of mauzip's posts.
:D

all I'm saying is, Italian or not, don't get your hopes up over ANY player (especially guard) exploding in Don Nelson's "system"...I definitely am curious to see if Belinelli can keep it up, but I've seen this happen way too many times in Golden State to believe the hype this early...PeACe

on a more important note the cat definatley looks like sly in rocky 1. lol
like many ballers in the nba giving the minutes, they can show you something. but it is an inflated system and it will take 10+ games scoring and doing how he is now to convince me he's a legit player, but all resepect to him because he is playing well and definatley has the chance now.

kobe, american?

22 pts and 4 assists vs the Boston Celtics (including a pair of clutch shots at the end). I told ya... Just give him a real chance! 8) 8) 8)
P.S. He defended against Ray Allen all the time, limiting him to just 7 points.

^^^^ KG taunts him , did you see that ? I really hope the Italian mafia will beat that bitch ass up :-X... this dude has a pass from the NBA to do whatever he wants on the court , that's digusting
-
^^^^ KG taunts him , did you see that ?
Nope, i've only seen some highlights, but they didn't show it.

I officially hate KG.

I officially hate KG.
you being a straight dude , you "officially" hate KG just now ? KG has been a bitch since he reached that All Star level ... the sad thing is the NBA is too soft nowadays and that makes KG thinks he's a hard motherfucker while he's far from being one... someone needs to fire back at him physically

He was alright with his fakeass humbleness as a T-Wolve...I started disliking him when he chose Celtics over Lakers like the gutless coward that he is because "there was too much drama going on in LA"...Now, after all his bitch-made antics and what not, I just HATE him.

Yeah you have been co-signing dude since day one. I still think Rudy Fernandez is better tho.

Huh? They were both drafted in 07. I thought Golden State was gonna take Fernandez but they took Belinelli so I was hoping we would take Rudy.
-
Oh, yeah. My bad. Yeah. I still remember arguing with NIK about the pick, cause Lakers selected Crittenton with the #19 (if i remember it well) and Belinelli was selected with the #18, or viceversa.
Anyway he scored 23 points last night. He's averaging almost 16 points, 3.5 assists and 1.2 steals in the last 10 games (33 mins per game).
Not bad. ;)

MARCO 8)
-
I still think Critt is better and has more potential than Belinelli. He just needs a chance to play.
-
Well i didn't know Critt back in '07, but i've seen him playing a couple of games, and i do agree with you. Marco is basically a scorer, who's perfect for a Nelson-D'Antoni type of system. Crittenton, on the other hand, has the potential to be a very good Penny Hardaway type of player, but like you said he need to find a team giving him a real chance.
