His learning curve was short learning certain spots he needs to be at for his place in the system. It helps that he has Manu there too because they have chemistry.

I thought his defense is substantially better than Neal, tbh... he's not a lockdown guy or anything like that, but 'average' is an improvement and IMO, he's just that.

If you look at defensive rating for the past couple of seasons, Neal was always near the bottom... Belli is middle of the pack... hope he can sustain it. Along with Patty improved D, they really help the second unit keep the defensive intensity.

No, I'd say it's much better. He gets his hand on the ball more often than Neal ever did and does a better job of staying with his man. The difference is clear, IMO.

Chicago overall was a top defensive team... other than actual individual stats, all stats get some variance depending who's on the floor and who is not (both on your team and the opposition). That's why there's all sorts of adjustments over those stats (ie: plus/minus vs adjusted plus/minus). If anything, everybody gets rated under the same criteria, and considering Belli has the same teammates than Neal had, and plays with pretty much the same unit, it should be somewhat of a fair comparison.

Also, if you look at defensive rating this season for the Spurs so far (removing players that didn't play many minutes, like Nando), you have : Kawhi, Danny, Tim, Patty in the top 4, which more or less passes the eye test.

tbh, Patty's D has been great this season too, and obviously that might influence a bit the overall numbers. IMO, the second unit hasn't been all offense, they've played great defense too.

1-Individual defensive rating is essentially team defensive rating minus (in a good way) blocks, steals defensive boards so the Spurs being unreal defensively to start the season explains why so many Spurs are putting up great numbers this season and why Boozer has had elite numbers in recent years.

2-I've been wrong about Beli so far. I admit that and hope it continues. If this Beli had been on the team instead of Neal last season, the Spurs win in six.

3-He's been decent as a three so far, but the team has not faced Durant, George or James yet. He didn't look great on bigger players so far, so it's possible he can't stay add the backup three in the post-season.

4-He was the player that the team chose to use the MLE on. Next time people try to blame Ayres for costing the Spurs a chance at Kirilenko or some other free agent, remember that the team essentially chose Beli over those players. So far, that seems like it was a good choice.

I've been a huge advocate and major fan of Gary Neal's. Especially considering his story and how he played for us for pennies for three seasons.

All that being said, I'm glad we have Belinelli now and Gary has moved on. This gives Gary a chance to make some cash, and Marco is definitely looking like a solid upgrade. The biggest downgrade with Belinelli is his knowledge of the system. But that will upgrade quickly as hes already showing great things.

Happy to have him on board! Good luck to you Neal!

Guess time will tell, most of the skeptics are simply saying that's they're about the same level... Neal was hated a lot because he was asked by Pop to run the point, and in the end he wasn't that bad at it, not worse than the Finals version of Manu at least...

But I guess Beli is gonna shoot better than 47% from 3 in the Finals as well as hit a season saving shot in the PO... He will probably also run the point if Mills ever gets injured... I mean it's so easy to do that Gary Neal could do it...

Neal is a beast at making bad shots which is an ability that really shines in the POs, that's why he was so great during his stint... Beli is playing well in blowouts so far but as usual on ST, premature ejaculators cant help themselves...

Yes Neal could make bad shots but that means he was also taking bad shots in the first place. There is no doubt he is a more explosive scorer than Belinelli but when Neal gets in the zone he takes shots away from the rest of the team; thus our overall offensive rhythm suffers.

People keep mentioning the blowouts as a way to slight Belinelli's performance so far, do you ever think the reason we are blowing teams out, in part, is because of his impact on the court?

That was gonna be my question. Make vs take. Neal can't create his own shot so he gets lots of bad ones. Or he just chucks up heat checks at the top of the key. Either way, lame.

Marco is making an impact. Your point is valid.

People got pissed with Neal because he was like a poor man's Kobe at times with the chucking. He definitely made some great shots, and he was a great bargain, I've always said that. It's just we expected him to at least play some consistent D or look for the open man, and he struggled with those things til the end. In fact if his shot wasn't falling, he was for the most part useless. I just think that Beli is a better overall package, way higher BBIQ and more of a team guy. I appreciate that Neal was on the team, I just wish he could've improved certain things during his stint instead of stubbornly remaining a chucker. But I wish him the best with his new team.

I'd argue that Beli is a big part of our blowouts. We've had several games where things have been close until the second unit just blows it open, and Marco is a part of that.

He's been shitting on the haters as the people who understand team basketball said he would. Don't know why you're surprised unless you're a hater and in that case, go back downstairs. Nothing here for ya but derisive laughter...

Beli's presence in the second unit is a big part of that group's success, imo. As others have pointed out, he is a far better ball handler and playmaker than Neal could ever be. Neal could get in a zone putting up shots, but he could never create for himself or others. Our second unit now has more good ball handlers than the starting five does. The second unit has Manu, Marco and Diaw, all of whom can pass and dribble and help create plays. The first unit has Tony and.....Tony and....Tony. Marco is a big reason why our bench is cleaning people's clocks. You get that many good ball handlers at a time on the floor and it is damn hard for anybody to stop all of them at once.

Don't know how much good it will do us in the playoffs, but right now it is terrific.

Beli is a much better passer than Neal.

Neal couldn't even bring the ball up court after a possession change without getting trapped....

Good riddance to that Tracy Morgan lookalike.

You need a certifiable sniper for the playoffs, because when it comes down to it, sometimes a bad shot is all that's there.

Maybe Danny/Patty will become that guy, but.. we already knew Neal was deadly when the clock was expiring with everything on the line.

Too bad we couldn't have Belli and Neal both as their skill sets are not redundant...

DING,DING muthaf*ckin' DING...someone who gets it

Neal was the only reliable dead-eye quick release shooter we had w/ nerves of steel

Choo-choo aint bothered by nuthin'...sh*ts goin' in

LMFAO at all these jackasses jizzing over Beli playing against D-league scrubs

Them passes they call pretty are useless against the teams that really matter (OKC,IND,MIA)

Like him or not Gary could get his own shot from anywhere on the court

A commodity in poor supply in SA once TP gets stifled

Neal was actually by far the worst Spur in the playoffs last year, tbh:lol..

He also really wasn't that great against Miami outside of like 2 games..for the series, his metrics are actually pretty shitty, tbh..the Spurs' offense was about average when he was on the floor and the defense was really bad..Miami constantly exploited him and his shitty rotations..

I'll wait to reserve judgement when Marco 3 point average returns to par. .300 rest of season shooting.

I will defend Neal on the grounds that he made some big shots when he was with us, that's for sure. However, as much as I liked Neal, I always cringed when the 2nd unit came out, like other posters said.

I also have a confession to make, I almost enjoy watching blowout games because I can't wait to see Marco play on the floor and I secretly can't wait for him to put up a prime Manu-esque stat line...
