Create an excuse as to why Casey plays Andrea

[Lord_Zedd]

Because that's a 7 footer out there

"we still have 300 boxes of those **** Raptor Italian Nite jerseys from a few years back. unless we trade for Gallinari, how else are we going to sell those things??"

[Dan2087]

"We can't upset our sponsors."

Cuban used something like this rationale to justify the NBA fining the Spurs for giving their boys the night off. I have no doubt that the Raptors would stoop to it if Casey's using the Luke Walton excuse.

For someone who preaches accountability, he doesn't seem to have any when it comes to being truthful in public.

I wish the league would fine us for playing AA and Andrea. Its deterring sponsors

Maybe that's what all those stolen victories are about...

"They're still playing those guys?!?!?! Ok, do it again, but we won't apologize this time."

Lol! I guess now we know Tyler Hansbrough was actually working for David Stern

"We will lose the Raptors fan base in Italy"

[UnderdogRaptors]

Bargnani is Dirk-Lite.

Spacing? No no no no, Andrea is a spaceman. That's what BC meant by the evolution of the game. On his planet, beings have evolved past competition. They believe in the greater good of the universe. Bugs Bunny set us back years by defeating the Monstars.

I put in Andrea because in frozen tag if someone frozen touches you, you get frozen too.

Andrea is actually a woman. We had to do it on the sly, but one day he'll reveal to the world his true gender, and it'll be a massive victory for women's rights.

You've heard how the home crowd is considered a sixth man? Well, as an on-court spectator, Andrea is like a seventh man.

I hate Weezer.

[C Court]

Casey has mistakenly been taking stupid pills instead of Viagra.

Damn you, Yogi!

Casey on the anonymous phone message he received:
"The next time Andrea was held accountable, I'd get a dead fish wrapped in newspaper sent to me."

[Big Shot]

Casey only gets his orgasm when he sees Bargs on the floor.

[That Other Guy]

Two words: caliper test.


He's earned minutes.

[Mack11]

Andrea has a friend named furio

[Geddy]

Casey owes a solid to Contender

Reporter: "Dwane why did you elect to play Bargnani in the 4th quarter when Jonas was having an excellent night?"

Casey: "We put in Andrea to give our opponents a better chance at winning the game. Jonas was dominating and it just wasn't fair to the other team. We needed to give them a better matchup to exploit and to hurt our defense."

[Mister Ze]

*Reporter at Post-Game Press Conference: "Coach Bargnani played 41 minutes against the Bucks tonight and recorded just 2 points and 2 rebounds on 1/9 shooting, did it ever occur to you that you should have taken him off the floor or reduced his minutes?"

*Coach Casey: "Not at all, Andrea was the only reason we were in it the whole time, I thought he did a great job of stretching the floor and making it easier for Guys like Rudy and Demar to score. "

*Reporter: "Is everything that comes out of your mouth being spooned in from management?"

[torontoaces04]

...because big men take 7+ years to develop.

[Schad]

On a per-100 minute basis, Bargs is averaging 28 points and 8.9 rebounds since returning. That kind of production is hard to find.

[shotcaller09]

Basketball reasons!

[DonMega]

I doubt it's casey, probably clownagelo forcing him to play bustnani
