Good (Euro) defensive player and Virtus' "glue" guy. Gawani is a better low post guy but you could tell he's out for his while Datome sets the tone for the squad. Bargs may have more skill but Big D has all the rest of the so called intangibles.
BTW, VR plays in a 4000 seater that was louder and more rambunctious than any non playoff ACC game I've ever been to.Official Pope of the Raptors sponsored by MLSE.

I think in general we need to go easier on GMs drafting records. Most drafts beyond the 1st pick is usually a crap shoot. Sometimes even the 1st pick can be a bust.For still frame photograph of me reading the DeRozan thread please refer to my avatar

Riley is a winner .....BC is not, that was my point.....Too many fans get sucked in by BC's media prowess. BC was probably on vacation in Italy and made it appear as though he was hard at work scouting.

DeRozan/Davis/Valanciunas/Ross/Acy being the last five picks.
Even when you get the first pick there are no guarantees whatsoever. The reason Bargnani is so frustrating is because he has the talent and body to put up 24 pts and snag 10 boards a game while simultaneously opening up lanes for players by stretching defenses.
Judging a GM on free agent acquisitions and contract extensions in my opinion is a MUCH more fruitful exercise.For still frame photograph of me reading the DeRozan thread please refer to my avatar
