I don't "hate" Coleman. I just don't understand how a guy who was pretty bad most of his time on the court has so many fanboys on here. As soon as people stop salivating over a 5"9 guard who can't play defense and shoots 30% from the field, I'll stop mocking them for it.

I don't think anyone has suggested he was more than just a backup/ bench player, so not sure who these fan boys are

If no one thought he was more than a bench/backup PG, not sure who is salivating

He shot 52.1% eFG last season, 81.5% FT Before you make a "easier competition" argument Against Final 4 LoyolaChi, Clemson, LSU, Arkansas he shot ~51% eFG

He also had conference leading assist rate + Asst:TO ratio, rarely fouls and respectable steal%

You are the only one worthy of being mocked on this subject

I'll bet money you will say something stupid like I love Coleman. I would not want Coleman starting for my team.

That said, he would be a solid backup PG for ~10mpg as an experienced SR. You could do a hell of a lot worse

First of all, if we're salivating over Coleman, you're salivating over a 5'10 PG,who we more often play at SG because his handles are so poor he has to dribble the ball up the court arse backwards. Secondly, the only one that keeps bringing up Coleman (or Grant for that matter) is you and you alone. Everyone wants the topic to die and you refuse to let it.
