Garbage? I was off by 1.6 % in my FGA estimation. Please forgive me my liege.

I'm just randomly going to go out on a limb here.....
ANDREA BARGNANI WILL AVERAGE 7-8 REBOUNDS A GAME NEXT YEAR
There I said it.
It just dawned on me. At the end of the day he is solidly built centre and faster than most of his counterparts. There is no way...physically and literally NO WAY, he should not get near the average number of rebounds for a guy playing his position (ie. standing near the rim the whole game).
Theres a million different theories for why he is such a poor rebounder - but there's only one commonality: there is no GOOD REASON why it should continue. Thus, common sense will prevail and whatever the reason actually is, will resolve itself.
Now if you've read closely you'll see I never said he would actually become a better defensive player. I dont know what +1.5 rebounds does for you interms of his actual value to a bball team.
But I am just saying on a purely NUMERICAL BASIS, you will see a number x; where x >= 7.0 under rebounding next to Bargs name on the stat sheet next year (unlike the current number thats there which makes you think you're looking in the wrong stat column or something)
That is all. (I feel better)

Who's The Founder's Favorite Player?
John Bitove, the sports nut and satellite radio mega-mogul, is merging Sirius Canada and XM Canada.I have the basketball from opening tip-off of the Raptors’ very first game, in 1995. I founded the franchise because basketball is my true passion. I played all through high school. I still go to a lot of games; my favourite player is Andrea Bargnani.

Random thoughts...
You know I was just thinking. Luol Deng is a prime example of someone a team tried to build around and failed, yet he's still with that team today but now in a #3 role; a contending team to be exact. Maybe there's hope for the Raptors if they don't deal Bargnani? Sure, if you can point them in the direction of the next Derick Rose.

Every other 7ft mofo that stands by the rim the whole game grabs at least 7 rebs/36 mins a game no matter how slow/fat/dumb.
I am betting that this annomaly (that is Bargs' whole career in a nutshell) reverts back to the mean.

Tim W. wrote: View PostI don't recall them ever trying to build around Luol Deng. He was just one of the many good players they had on their team. And the big difference is that Deng isn't a liability half of the time he's on the floor. His game is more suited to be a role player because he can do all the little things role players need to do, like play defense. Deng is a very good player. He's just not a great player. And he doesn't really have any great weaknesses, he just doesn't have any overwhelming skills. Bargnani has one great skill, and the rest are below average.
I fail to see any similarities between Deng and Bargnani.
