Virtus Bologna, Bogdan Tanjevic makes an illustrious comparison about Marco Belinelli

During an interview with the microphones of the "Gazzetta dello Sport", former coach Bogdan Tanjevic, among other topics discussed, wanted to spend words of praise on Marco Belinelli, who made his debut with the Felsinei precisely under the management of the Italian-Montenegrin coach in the 2002-03 season. In addition, the former coach of Olimpia Milano commented on the future of the Bianconeri number 3.

"Marco è extraordinary, he is having an incredible season. I, who have always believed in his talent, easy to see, would never have imagined to find him today in this physical condition and still soì decisive. He is the Italian LeBron James, even more toned than the Lakers superstar. His secret è the great internal balance he has as a person and as a player" began the former Virtus Bologna coach.

"Throughout his career he è never let himself be conditioned by anything, he knew what he had to do and how he had to do it. It è not easy to be a scorer in today’s basketball, he è fantastic because of how he simplifies every situation. That shot of his coming out of the blocks è the result of a lot of practice done in the gym, he è a perfectionist and it shows. Compared to when he was young, he has changed his shooting technique, his years in the NBA have made him more responsive and quicker in release. I believe that by playing like this; he will be able to go at least two more years" concluded Bogdan Tanjevic
