Obviously the wings are more the main point of our transition game, but Bargs plays his part. And D'Antoni's system relies on having lots of 3-point threats. Bargs is a fit in that respect as well.
But then, you (GarbageTime) think bargs is MLSE's biggest mistake, so we shouldn't be expecting reasonable analysis.

The roster in NY is nothing like what he worked with in PHX and it does not suit the team moving forward. BC and MD'A need each other right now.
"but isnt he the quintessential DAntoni player?"
I disagree. Bargnani can shoot but he lacks the explosiveness and athleticism seen in D'Antoni typical starting big men and ruggedness of bench big men.“I have no idea who Chukwudiebere Maduabum is, but on his Draft Express profile, he’s listed as Chu Chu. I think he’s worthy of picking just for that. He immediately is in the running for best All-Time NBA name.” -Tim W.

I am actually hoping that he be moved so Raptor fans once again see the danger of falling for scrubs and pushing the stars out of their city. Last year Bosh, this year is AB.
After this year AB does not look like he will ever be an All Star. Certainly not ours. Our team has too much now invested in PF's. We need a real Centre.“I have no idea who Chukwudiebere Maduabum is, but on his Draft Express profile, he’s listed as Chu Chu. I think he’s worthy of picking just for that.

No one denys that Ed Davis is a great player. I am actually advocating moving Amir because Ed will be a head and shoulder above him next season. BUT Ed is not a center player to a winning team. He is just a small part of puzzle. Same goes to DD. They are good to great player to have in a a team but not what a team should be build around.
You build a team around Natural born leaders, a real star and then you use the guys like Davis and DD to complement him.
Look at Chicago Bulls, they did not build the team around Noah. They build it around Rose and used players like Noah to complement it.
I for one have never said Ed is a C.
Ed, AB, DD are all pieces. None of them are franchise players.
Thanks for the tutorial on building a winning team. Question for you: who was drafted first, Noah or Rose? You build a team around what you have and hope to get as lucky to go from 9 to 1st overall in a draft with a franchise PG.

Raptor4Ever wrote: View PostThis is big mistake !! Neither Ed or DD are the type of Players that you focus your rebuilding process around. They are just nice player to have just like AB is. AB provides the void and the gap that is in the ED's offensive game.
I think Jay and BC are looking for escape goat and AB is that person which they can use to blame the defensive woes on.
Bargnani had his chance, and he blew it. Now he's just a borderline toxic contract. Let's hope Demar doesn't blow the opportunity either.

Best part of this article if it's true is the building around Demar and Ed. Two guys in their Rookie and Sophmore years who are both already showing all-star potential. One is fourth among all rookies in rpg with all the guys ahead of him paying significantly more minutes, 3rd in blocks, and fourth in Eff/48 while the other is third among all sophomores in ppg. For guys saying you can't build around these two, they are both starting to look like they will be very good payers in this league and if you got the right pieces for a Bargs trade, this is a playoff team next season."Victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror, victory however long and hard the road may be; for without victory, there is no survival."

Then his slippage continued till he found himself in the D-League, ridding bus from a City to City and not getting even 5 minutes in NBA. Damn, that is a good reason to be excited about.
Come on Pal, you don't believe the stuff you write here , do you ?

you people amaze me.. most of Ed's points were open dunks. I wonder how many points andrea would average is he was left THAT wide open on the offensive end. Nothing against Davis hes a solid player but you just can't compare the two. Teams consider Davis a liability on the offensive end, until he proves otherwise he'll keep getting open dunks. The problem wll occur when teams actually decide to focus on him.Last edited by DunkinDerozan; Sun Mar 27, 2011, 06:11 PM.
