Marginal role players are not needed here you idiot meatball.

It isn't about a breakout year. The guy isn't a star.

But he is a valuable piece to have on a good team. It isn't Moore's fault that the Celtics and Magic make bad personnel decisions.

Another great post by IMU.

The playing time that Moore got last year is proving invaluable. This may have been Thibs last thank you present to the Bulls!

9 minutes per game during the regular season. 2.5 during post season. Thibs really played this guy "extended minutes" in order to expedite his development. Thanks Thibs.

You were the one complaining he was playing too much!

I was complaining that he was playing him in front of Tony Snell. Check the tape. Tony Snell was regularly receiving DNPs prior to Hinrich's injuries. Revisionism particularly when contradicted with evidence, is not going to fly.

Yes I am. Also where was the Etwaun Moore love and new found Thibs love when he avg. 2 min. per during the playoffs. I didn't hear a lot of clamoring for the services of Moore when the Bulls were involved in all of their prolonged scoring droughts.

I'm sure you will have no trouble bumping the thread or comment which stated how Thibs screwed up by keeping Etwaun Moore on the bench. That should be pretty easy given the level of groundswell support he is presently enjoying.

He's a bench player, and they get less time in the playoffs. That's why they are bench players.

If he is merely a bench player, then what exactly are you celebrating? The basketball existentialist abilities of Etwaun Moore?

I'm celebrating that he has worked himself into a contributor for the team, and that people like you who doubted he would will be proven wrong.

Remember, it was just yesterday, that you stated he won't be a top ten player for the Bulls.

He's a bench player, and they get less time in the playoffs. That's why they are bench players.

Also you may not have noticed but Javier Baez was good this year.

In AAA

And additionally the majors and the playoffs. As an everyday player...the kid is going to be alright alright alright.

not really in the majors

He looked denuded of his home run power in order to cut down on this strikeouts but he still struck out 1/3 of the time.

His defense betrayed him in the playoffs.

I'll defer to IMU, who seems to have been correct far more than you in regards to basketball.

[.289 Batting average would be good for 7th best 2B in all of MLB (since that is your go to stat)

I'll defer to IMU, who seems to have been correct far more than you in regards to basketball.

That's a pretty bold statement.

Might want to pump the brakes on that line of thinking.

You can try and spin it all you want but the minutes Moore got seem to have paid off. Any complaints about them were wrong.

Still ready to say that Moore won't crack the top ten in the rotation with the Bulls? Probably easier for you to admit it now that you were wrong.

Oh was I? I thought it was high time to bump this particular thread from days gone by.
