A combined 8 points, 1 rebound, 2 assists, and 4 fouls in those 3 games. Evans was just as good (or mediocre I should say) in those games.
The biggest difference I see is that Mo Evans has hit BIG shots for us in the 3rd and 4th quarters in close games (he hit a big 3 today when we were down 1 point with 6 minutes left in the game). Delfino has not. The Boston game was his only real shining moment. Most of his other points were garbage-time buckets. I'll give him the Clippers and Heat games, but Evans has that kind of impact every other game or so, so I need to see more.
We can talk about talent all we want, but Evans is going out there and producing. His shot may be ugly, and his game may be limited, but he always seems to find a way to put points on the board and hustle for those rebounds. And his defense is getting better as we speak.
