great. another thread bargs-jacked.
+1 Good way to look at it, the guy would probably benefit much from a change in role. I think people now have stopped hoping for Bargs to be the go to guy in Toronto. Like you said, he would be going against second unit guys. Where he'll be much less a defensive liability, and more of an asset.
oops, hope not! Not sure how you can have a discussion about the Raps D without at least mentioning him, as his D has been a lightning rod for discussion/debate/knock-down-drag-outs on here all season! lol As we look at improving the D going into next season, part of that discussion would have to include at least some chatter about whether or not he should be on the team and/or how to better use him to prevent him from having such a negative impact on the team's overall D.
I agree he's not a C, I actually think he's more of a small forward, or swingman as you would put it. What good does this do? I would rather have Ed or Amir at the pf going forward. Andrea is a 7 foot jump shooter getting paid an average of 10 million over the next couple years. Its undeniable that we need to trade him for a either a pg, sg, or a true centre. Above all else he has the worst personality i've ever seen. Does he have any friends on the team?
Heinz, alot of posters here like Nick refuse to criticize any other players but Bargs.
This thread is about a Bargs-less Raps got killed last night, but now we talkin about Bargs.
They just are sheep following the masses, Bargs sits, team gets blown out "Trade Bargs"
Cant wait till next year if Bargs gets traded, what do the sheep say then?
You'll notice at the beginning of the year I was really stoked on Bargnani finally being out of Bosh's shadow and having the chance to blossom. But now that I've seen how unbelievably bad his rebounding is, I think he sucks. He has no basketball IQ, and I'm sick and tired of his pump fake dribble shoot move. He's a one trick pony. I'm not sheep by anymeans, I'm just not going out of my way to be different by representing a lost cause.
no we started getting blown out from the start when bargs was building a brick house with his terrible shot selections. After he left in the 2nd half we were great but it was too late for a come back. But i agree bargnani isn't the only guy that plays crap defence, but he is a huge reason. Our younger players will learn to play better D eventually and if bargnani is still here next season he better learn too.
Sorry to burst your bubble, but from the start of the game until he went to the bench, Bargnani was 0-for-2 shooting (good shots, just didn't fall) with 2 rebounds (one offensive). He went out a lot earlier than normal - I thought he only played about the first six minutes of the game.
1st part- that is just not true. Bargs played less than 10 mins i believe. I witnessed the 2nd qtr where the REAL beating occured. Weems, Bayless, DD, Evans, Amir with Juju for a bit. We got killed. They dropped like 11 threes, all from the 2-3 spot and the PG.
So how can you say that magically those guys who did so bad last night will "improve on D", where is the evidence, aside from Demar?
no if you look at the way he acts and his facial expression you can tell he is not a happy guy. I was watching the orlando game the other day and they panned the camera over to the raptors during a TO and i saw jose talking to bargs and bargs just ignored him. He either doesn't like it here or just has a terrible personality. I do kinda feel sorry for him though it doesn't seem like he is friends with any of his teammates besides jose(Maybe).
