Bargnani for... Boozer?!?!

[JawsGT]

Bargnani should be traded for 3rd, 4th, 5th or 6th round picks.

[RandomGuy]

or 7th, 8th, 9th ... 15th. 16th....

[ReubenJRD]

400th...

[Raptor_11]

Trade him for the Milwaukee ballboy

[Nilanka]

Casey needs to design our offense around Bargnani (like Dirk in Dallas). Then everything will fall into place....

[NoBan]

If we actually going to unload him before he's expiring, we'll need to find a team in a certain amount of chaos that doesn't have a great decision making process.

To the Kings for Chuck Hayes and Jimmer?

Bargs lost his shot. It's been game over since.

The shitty thing is that "design the O around Bargs" was a legit strategy going into the season (or so we thought). Most of us had him listed as our best offensive player. Casey tried this over and over until Bargnani turned into public enemy #1, and even then still forced the offense thru him. So here we are, less than 1 year later, getting trolled by the idea tha Bargnani could be our first option. #facepalm.

I think we just got so focused on getting Bargs stronger, getting a post up game, getting him more responsible on D, etc, etc, etc, and the team forgot to hone and nuture his true asset - outside shooting. So much focus was put on the other aspects of his game, the part the was taken for granted atrophied. Now he's a shell of his former self and will never achieve his potential. It's both a personal and organizational failure.

Will he ever get his shot going?

Not sure I agree it's the organization's fault for wanting/expecting Bargnani to diversify his game. He wasn't exactly a 3-point specialist coming into this season.

Bargnani is lazy ass player, who just was gifted with talent. You can see "LAZY" in his physiognomy. I saw it when I became Raps fan on day 1, but remained silent as majority was still pro-Bargnani, now I can say it without hesitation. As he gets older, he gets lazier, there's no way he will be better than his legendary 13 game mirage.

It's a shared blame. Bargnani hasn't just been eating primo pasta this whole time; he's not eddy curry. He has worked on strength & conditioning, 1 on 1 D, etc.

If the team would have said "Andrea, your job is to put up 1000 shots a day, here is your personal shooting coach" on day 1, we'd probably have a more useful player on our hands now. What do you think?

I'm of the belief that a team can't hide a front court player who is a poor defender/rebounder. If Bargnani was left to focus on just his shot, I'm sure his shot would be better, but IMO, he'd still be pretty useless (as an overall player) because of what he gives up on the other end.
