Why is Carlos Delfino so inconsistent?

[teamLeiweke]

One HEARTBREAKER loss... by 4 pts in OT, ON THE ROAD, against a team that beat Boston TWICE (i dont care if Butler didnt play, sometimes teams come together when that happens, and they had a few other people step up huge in his absence)..

and this board flips!

Titles like: I have no more confidence in the raps, babcock > colangelo, why delfino so inconsistent, point the finger at BC, we need a defensive big, bargs not the answer, jamario no more jump shot, give baston a chance...

DO YOU REALLY THINK IF WE GUTTED OUT THE WIN IN OT any of you would be saying these things. Keepo you emotion sin check. We are playing good basketball. Jose was great as usual.. Bosh played amnazing in the first half, struggled, but still got the the line and played great on the defensive end.. you want a big at center? Humps 7/8 fg and handfull of rebounds wasnt what you were looking for?

Chill out. We are playing good basketball. Even Pheonix loses, and we arent even a tier one team anyway in the NBA. CHILL OUT!

50% of his shots are 3 pointers. That's really all you need to know.

Are you saying he's consistent then? I'm not freaking out, I'm just pointing out a fact. Just look at his game logs this past month. I'm just saying it'd be wise to run a few plays for Delfino when he first comes off the bench to get him going instead of him just jacking 3s all day.

What are you rambling on about?

Delfino is inconsistent, and has been all season (and all of his career reall). It's not like the op was just basing this on last night.

Would it be a better time to start this thread when the Raptors win by 30 and Delfino drops 25?

and ironically, you have, by far, the most emotionally charged post in this thread, so perhaps you are the one that has to "CHILL OUT!"

certain players needs some form of structure and a defined role.it helps them with their comfort level and to maximize their skills....they aint gettin it in sams helter skelter method of coaching.one day he plays,one day he dont,one day he comes off the bench first,then he comes in last,he plays 4 minutes,yanked,sits rest of whole game...sam looks for the short term fix on who he believes is gonna help us win that night and not necessarily whats actually gonna win us the game.(like last night when he got a boner for joey)..thus stunting ballers into inconsistency.....sam is toxic.

I disagree with that being a reason for Delfino's inconsistency. Check out his game logs, he has been getting very consistent minutes this season.

He has only had 5 games this season where he has gotten less than 15 minutes of playing time, and 0 games under 10 minutes.
