Gallinari can shoot the heck of the ball. Smooth jumper.

If Gallo's jumper really is THIS consistent, its almost impossible for him to be a bust.

Fair enough, he did better in the third. But you guys need a lesson in objectivity.

Gallo does bad: can't blame him - he's too young, inexperienced, etc.
Gallo does average: amazing first game
Gallo does good: he's gonna be a hall of famer

How about if gallo sucked today then that's just it: he sucked. Not 'he was nervous, didn't ask for the ball, etc.' I thought the excuses left with Isiah, but maybe not. ;)

Metra, who is saying he's awesome? I think people are just happy that he has some very useful tools in his arsenal..

You need a lesson in patience and not saying things in print that can blow up in your face within about 2 minutes.

I'm starting to think Gallo is having a better game than Chandler.

You guys are losers if you are bitching and moaning about this kid already. Rose, Mayo both sucked, Thomas and Noah looked average off the bat. The kid is under tremendous pressure so far and dealing with a cultural change at 19 years old.

Give the kid a ****ing break. He can stroke the ball, he has nice moves, is growing and is learning and is hustling and has a good attitude and won't back down. He is going to be fine, and going to be a good player, and already looks better than half the people his height handling the ball. He looks like a Rasard Lewis with handle, I'll take that.

If Donnie can make some moves we have two very skilled young players that can shoot in Gallo and Chandler, not to mention a coach that knows what he is doing.

Balkman would be such a valuable asset if he had a jumpshot, too bad he'll never develop it.

How about actually letting one COMPLETE game be played before anyone makes any judgment on how he did? It's not about how he does from minute to minute, but how he'll do from year to year.

I think I have been fair. Gallinari showed be enough to show he can be a quality player in the league. I like his hustle the most. I like the fact that he did not back down at all. He will be a good teammate guy. I am glad he finally forced himself in this game, looking to pass too much early on. Very good shooter and his ball handling improved as the game went on. Nerves seem to be his problem in the first quarter. I still don't know his position in the NBA yet but if he fills out I think he can be a 4. Nice showing in the second half. I was very impressed with Chandler, he looked to shoot too much but he knows where he is at. In SL you don't wait until the game comes to you. The game lacked a true point.
