vs. Lebron
vs. Durant
vs. Odom
Yikes.
If he learns to just slide his feet, extend his arms and just use his body to block their paths then that would be wicked, coz he is a wide body and if he knew how to use it it could create problems for these guys. but, he doesnt, and frankly, i dont think he'll be able to learn. or at least willing to.

on offense...
center -big enough to post up inside -- threat
pf--- quick enough and skilled enough to play stretch 4 when needed
sf --- unlimited range and smooth stroke to play the 3 can pump fake and dribble drive from 3 point line with the best of them
on defense
big enough to play the 5
mobile enough to play the 4
can play 3 only against opposing 3's with no ballhandling skillsLast edited by DunkinDerozan; Thu Apr 21, 2011, 03:51 PM.

I was at that game and our wings were getting torched by Stuckey, Gordon, Prince and T-Mac (Rip sat out) with constant penetration and defensive switching. Bargnani did a good job cutting guys off on the switch, but they were hitting deep fadeaways from just inside the 3-pt line in the corners at like a 55% clip in the first half. When they got deeper penetration, they would simply dump it to Big Ben or Monroe inside for an easy layup/dunk while our wing was three steps too late on their switches. I remember sitting there at the game thinking that Bargnani's defense was good, but he was going to get destroyed on the stat sheet and here on RR! LOL

Personally, I could see Bargs play the 3. Even if he starts the game at this position doesn't mean he'll be there all game long! On offense, I think it could work well. As for the defensive end, just like some of you said before, when he's at the 3, he takes the weakest player on the other team and that's it. I really could see it happen and I'd like to. And if he gets beat by his man, you got some good shot blockers and defenders inside to help him.

The year he lined up at SF his defensive rating and opp. PER was worst. What is more telling though is his OFFENSIVE production was also less compared to lining up at PF or C that same year. Likely to do with the fact that he is a jump shooter, and SFs in this league will actually come out to you at the 3pt line and bother you, and harass throughout the game. Who knows, I just gotta say
NO WAY IN HELL>
