The funny thing, Bargnani's player efficiency last season was 16.6. That would be good for 6th on the Raptors (only trailing Max Money DeRozan by a hair).

"AB was and still is a big tease. When he was injured he refused to do simple non-contact activities like dummy our offense in practice. He seemed to be a malingerer and this had a bad effect on the team, and also on the way the Knicks fans reacted to him. When he was on the court, he had a hard time staying intense, didn't hustle back in offense-to-defense transition, wasn't active enough in defending screen-rolls. Still, his offense is perfectly suited to the triangle because he really doesn't have to work very hard to get shots. He's another guy we renounced, but whether we can agree on financial terms for his return, or he winds up someplace else, AB will always be somewhat of an enigma."
Former Raps Quincy Acy and Jose get solid reviews (no surprise). The "enigma" term returns, but unlike BC, it's on the negative side.
"There is a right time for everything," Bargnani told La Gazzetta dello Sport Tuesday, according to a translation, "I have the answers, but it would be selfish to trigger controversy. Today, the only important thing is the national team. Later, gladly."
As per your article, sounds like he's thinking beyond himself. He's probably pissed so good on him to bite his tongue.
