[QUOTE="JFGsCoffeeMug, post: 1583337, member: 74571"] There were so many games during the Groce era where we lost because our players seemed to be scared to make a mistake, so they did nothing and gave away any chance to win. We were also plagued by this early on in BU's tenure. For better or for worse, Belo doesn't suffer from that fear of failure. I will always root for a player who is doing everything he can to make the winning play, even if it ends in failure. Belo's skill and playstyle may drop our floor a little bit, but they also significantly raise our ceiling as a team. He is a big part of our potential this year (and every season he remains on our roster). There's a reason why other fanbases are jealous we have Belo and they don't. He's really special (even if he is a work in progress). [/QUOTE]
