Everything Bargnani: Grumble, Grumble, Grumble

[Maleko]

In an interview he was asked why he doesnt grab more rebs. this was in the locker room after a game. He looked pissed off at the reporter. He said "lazy I guess, I dont know". Do you think he was being serious? People take stuff way out of context.

Paul, if you truly believe Bargnani goes all out most games, you are napping yourself during the games.

Someone in here made a good point earlier. I think it was Mango. You'll have the whole league jumping on board for that price to take a chance. Somebody is going to overpay to get him.

I agree that many teams will jump on this guy and that just show and confirms that there is REAL VALUE and REAL TALENT there that is worth risking and gambling on.

That being said, I am against over paying players. We over paid Jose, Jason Kapano and Amir Johnson. This time around, we really need to due a Risk Analysis ( like any other investment that a person does) and see how much we want to gamble on this guy.

As I said earlier, I am OK with gambling 12 million for 3 years and 10 for 2. If it takes more money, then I guess we can just step aside and let the other teams pay up.

Bargs has already proven he is a liability on defense. He manages to be a big reason why the Raptors are last in the league in defense.

the whole is greater than the sum of all parts.

Don't worry about Tim Dub, he's one of those guys that's never happy. Once Bosh left, everything fell apart for the poor fella.

[DunkinDerozan]

How do you evaluate effort? If a guy plays through injuries and illnesses, even if his #'s arent as high, at least he played, and didnt whine about it like CB4 would have done. Lots of days I go to work when I'm sick, and have trouble putting in the best effort, but at least I go and try.

its also funny that efficency doesn't consider the health of a player. King Bargs NSN-BWO

its funny you mentioned Bosh. I was just thinking that Bargnani is having a more productive season this year than Bosh had for us last year considering the circumstances and the talent level on this roster as appose to last years roster. Yet most people wanted Bosh to resign before he screwed us. My only explenation for the Bargnani hate this year is that the same people who supported Bosh were very critical of Bargnani all these years. They still must be in denial that Bargs is suddenly turning into such a force after four years of underutilization and poor player management / development. So to sum up the Bargnani critics from day 1 are in shock at his transformation and wont change their minds no matter what.

I agree 1000000%%%, if CB was putting up Bargs #'s from this year, last year, they would be fine with it.

"What is he doing?
"Why is he 15 feet from the basket on D with no one around him? Do rebounds go there?
"Why is he, uhm ... there?
"Wait ... wait ... wait ... nope, he's not going to pick up that guy."
"Why would he do that?
"Who doesn't love when he twitches in the direction he could defend, then decides not to do it."
"Where did he go, he's not even onscreen?"
"Why I think he could get blocked out by an actual pylon. Or at least momentarily confused."


These are things that I have said to the TV over the last month.

plus think about it CB was playing with BARGS. Take away bargs from last years team do u think there is anyways Bosh would have the year he had? Highly doubtful

Another good point! Bosh was leaning on Bargs last year, and also would throw him under the bus when he had a bad game himself!

speaking of bosh.... ouchh the heat lost to cleveland.... how did bosh do?

[Apollo]

I can't see the future but I'm willing to put money down on the idea that somebody is going to get burnt by overpaying for Oden to sit on the sidelines in a body cast for three to five years.

I watched, at one point they were down 20 and he started limping and faking an injury, what a puss

[DunkinDerozan]

lol typical boshhh... does he still wear those 50 pound knee braces?

He was wearing 20 lb teeth braces too

The funny thing is Bargnani has performed so well as Bosh's replacement I almost forgot Bosh was our franchise player all these years lool.

if you can't outmuscle your openent naturally you gotta use every trick in the book.

But you actually need the right parts. Parts that don't have fatal flaws that will hurt the whole.
