          Steve Kyler: Bargnani is no longer in the picture in Toronto, they'll play him to prove he's healthy, but a trade is almost inevitable at this point Twitter @stevekylerNBA

          • be a shame if this thread doesn't get a 1000000 views before we trade him

            • I'm sure there will be 50k worth of views to read the posts that we didn't get enough or don't like what we got when he finally gets traded.

                I'm convinced "The Bargnani Discussion" will outlast even the "Vince discussion".
                Bargnani manages to solicit the most Vile angst we've ever seen around here.

                  Not sure I agree. Time makes the anger fade. If RR was around in 2005.... .wow.

                      For a trip down memory lane the whole article is worth the read. I don't know whether to laugh, cry, or drink when I read this:


                      For years, NBA teams have used the Caliper Profile to evaluate potential draft picks. The Caliper is a personality profile used by numerous corporations and organizations to measure one's capacity to excel in specific situations. Over the past 24 years, Caliper has assessed more than 20,000 athletes, including NBA players from Detroit, San Antonio, Denver and Phoenix. Colangelo has long been sold on the system. When he heard how Bargnani measured up, he nearly dropped the phone.

                      "They said his upside and potential were off the charts," Colangelo says from the tunnel of the Air Canada Centre as Bargnani drains a three against the Cavaliers. "They said, 'Out of all the athletes we've profiled, we've never seen anything like this.' "

                      The test showed that Bargnani is virtually oblivious to what others think of him. And his tremendous ability to block out such potentially negative pressures enables him to focus completely on the task at hand. So the expectations and anxieties that come with being the No.1 pick, or the only Italian-born player in the league, or even taking a game-winning shot, don't even register with him.

                          I say all of RR does all 3. Why not cry in tears of joy while enjoying some MGD?

                            • This goes to show you how high everyone was on Bargs in the beginning. He jusst hasn't taken that step into the elite level like we all anticipated.
                              Welp, that sucked.
