    What a ty thread.

    First, Belinelli has been in the league for years. It's damn weird and stupid to judge him on one game he had with Italian NT. He is a known quan y.

    Second, the main reason why teams are fouling when up 3 in Europe and not in NBA is because refs call the game differently. NBA refs are especially way more prone to call a foul a shooting foul and grant 3 free throws than in Europe.
    LMAO, this is the meanest post I've ever seen from Bruno.

    Also, TC learn some ing english man, your writing hurts my eyes.

    Obviously Kobyz did not watch Bellinelli in the Miami playoff series. He looked great the whole series. Obviously you folks did not see him play at the end of the season.

    Bellinelli is a garbage NBA player, even last season i saw him play with the Bulls, when giving him the ball he can't create high percents shots, he has heavy and awkward style so it also ruin team chemistry on offense, has mediocre IQ, on defense he's terrible, not a pure compe or and has bad instincs, as a shooter he is not great either, very streaky, he remind me as a player that Roger Mason, not surprise Bulls toss him and chose to sign old injury dunleavy...
    Spurs only sign him cause they are in big mess and trauma after the finals, they don't know what they doing right now...

    that was maybe in the past, now NBA refs are refereeing it more profeshional and from the books, and of course they wouldn't call such foul a shooting foul on the spurs at that situation, they still has some respect to the Spurs...
    your point of view is ty on this!!!

    Giving 3m/yr to Belli instead of Neal will turn out to be a dumb choice imho. Belli might be a decent role player and he's probably worth that money in this crazy market, but my Neal is still ahead of him by at least a mile.

    The first thought I had is this guy who had the hundred meltdowns since June is still alive? I am shocked this guy is actually posting now and not crying over the finals or game 6 anymore talking about he is going to die and his life is over. Thats progress!
    9 out of every 10 posts are a whine about dying.
    LOL shhhhhh, he has somewhat gone away from that now man.

    In doses, maybe. The problem with Neal is that he's one of the most inconsistent players in the league. He'll kill it for 21 one night, and go 0-7 the next. At least Belli might be more consistent, and we'll know what we're getting when he steps on the court.

    Neal never goes 0-7. He might have a lower percentage one night, but he usually always hits a few shots. He had foot problems all season too, so that has to be something to consider as he shot better the previous two seasons prior to this one.

    The problem with him is defense and decision making, nothing to do with his shooting. He's a lethal shooter, and it's hard to find someone that has the confidence to do it throughout the playoffs instead of just in regular season games when the pressure and defensive intensity isn't as high. Neal shoots with the same confidence in a pressure playoff game as he does in the regular season game. A lot of players wilt in the playoffs, so let's not go downplaying his shooting ability to make Bellineli look better. I'd say the Spurs let him go because of his other flaws, and I seriously doubt his shooting percentage was even remotely a factor in letting him go.

    Don't understand why so many are down on Belinelli before he has even suited up for the Spurs, it makes no sense. He is decent on offense and has shown he can play defense when he was with the Bulls, thus he should be an upgrade over Neal once he learns the system.
    I've noticed an ungodly amount of dense unreasonable narrow minded posters posing as Spurs fans on this site this off season!
    What's up with that?

    Comments about some of the 0-fors.

    Parker's 0-10 was in 2002 against the Lakers. Five others, two 0-5, two 0-2, one 0-0 (2 MP), none since 2007.
    Belinelli's 0-9 was at the Kings last March.
    Splitter's only 0-4 was against the Lakers in this year's playoffs.
    Duncan's 1-10 was against Dwight Howard (and Gortat) in a Magic blowout. Duncan's most recent 1for was 1-9 against Asik in a win against the Rockets, 10 PT, 8-8 FT, 13 RB.

    Game 6 and 7 he was bad though Ice. Like u said his D and decision making was bad, launching 1 on 3 27 foot threes at times. He also was not a PG but Pop tried it.

    and has shown he can play defense when he was with the Bulls,
    He has? Geez, I must have missed that game. Posters who constantly knocked Neal's defense are in for a rude awakening when they see Belinelli's. He had a career year defensively last year ONLY allowing 107 points per 100 possessions and Neal still bested it.

    There's a reason why the offensively challenged Bulls let him walk after one year for next to nothing. If he was such a good catch, this wouldn't be his 5th team in 7 years. With that said, I think he'll be marginal upgrade over Neal, putting up similar numbers on offense and he should help to limit Ginobili's minutes during the regular season, which is a good thing.

    Marco Will Be fine..... Him And Neal, Are very Similar players... Marco Played Well on the Big Stage, Against The Heat in the playoffs... Neal Had 1 Good Game in the finals against the Heat.... Belinelli Played well 4 out of the 5 games against the Heat.... Not Saying he is Better then Neal, But To Me, they Both Play Below Average Defense, they both can Hit the 3 ball, and both are Average Ball Handlers.... Only time will tell, Not gonna Judge A guy after 1 international game.....

    I doubt Marco attempts a 3 during a 2-on-1 fast break the way Neal was so accustomed to doing
