I think Raptor fans recognize Bargs isn't taking many 3pt shots any more. But around the NBA his old reputation still persists. You'll watch a broadcast of the opposing team and they talk about him like he's a 3pt shooter.

look at his #'s from the beginning of the season till now:
ppg/rebs/asts/fg%/3fg%
oct: 21 / 3.5 / 1 / 44.1 / 66.7
nov: 20.7 / 5.3 / 1.3 / 44.9 / 38
dec: 21.9 / 6.5 / 2.4 / 50 / 29.7
jan: 23.8 / 6.8 / 2.5 / 50.7 / 40
for all intent and purposes...this is the only guy opposing coaches have to gameplan for and he's still putting up some pretty damn impressive #'s. he's shooting better, he's passing better and he's rebounding better as the season goes along.
and if you look at the list of 20ppg scorers in the league, only one other player (granger) is not playing with either an elite pg or a 18+ ppg caliber scorer. even kevin love has 20+ ppg scorer beasley on the court with him. maybe derozan develops into one but he's definitely not one now.
imho, i think he has been very impressive this season and has somewhat surpassed my expectations for him. there definitely is a huge improvement from him this season considering his role. now imagine he had an aggressive pg/sg that would give him 2-3 extra easy baskets per game? if derozan keeps up the type of production he's been having the past 3 weeks, then maybe we see even better #'s from bargs...
i'm curious to see how it plays out the final 3 months of the season...

Bargnani/Nowitzki Comparison (Sam Mitchell Quotes In Post #21)
So I was just looking at some stats and please dont attack me for this posting.
Bargnani's Decembers stats look good, Dirk good.... If you dont see where this is going by now, Im trying to say that Bargs has continued to improove his game and is looking more like "Dirk Jr." with each game.
Here is Barg's stats average for December:
rebounds-6.0, Assists- 2.2, Block- 1.6, Points-24.2 in 37.2 mins
http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/player...?playerId=2987
Here is Dirk's average for the season:
rebounds-7.5, Assists-2.4, Block-.79 Points-24.1 in 35.4 mins
http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/player...g?playerId=609
Now i know Dirk is playing less minutes, shooting a higher fg%, and has more rebounds then Bargnani but not by much. And as always Bargs is continuing to improve. Keep in mind, its his first time being the 1st scoring option and getting alot more double teams. At this point Dirk is a better all around player but it is still early in the year and I expect Bargs to continue improoving throughout the season. IMO Bargs is Dirk Jr. at this point but by the end of the season I expect these numbers to be even more similar. He may never stop being Dirk Jr. but even that is pretty damn good! IMO
