Overall he's playing absolutely abysmal, but still, patience people.


At some point either Bargs improves on those areas or the coaching staff says enough, he just can't do those things.

Sh*t coach, weak talent...

Stop freaking out. Portland have been beating everyone, we have been playing fine ball, and still have a decent shot at winning this game.

Not sure what your point is. Do I not have the right to discuss your idiocy and point out that I'd rather listen to BC's perspective than some guy borrowing his mom's computer?


Okay, because a grasp of the obvious is so hard for you... my point is that if you had to have BC's qualifications in order to post here, none of us would be able to post here. If the everyday fan wasn't allowed to discuss and criticize the Raptors, the RealGM would not exist. Get it?

Our guards need to push the ball up already. It worked early in the 1st half.

we're not relying on a 2nd year player. I for one don't expect him to be an allstar, but heck, do something productive for a big man

On the brightside, we're only down 4 points with hump at the line (I'm guessing he'll go 1/2)

I really question your bball knowledge. Do you realize how hard it is to develop skills as a NBA big?

Its not even the all star weekend and your suggesting giving up? Ridiculous. Its going to take more than a couple of months...

We already tried to boost his confidence with a starting job, the next thing is to give him a contract extension.


As for us having a hard time, this team is 18/19, statistically that can't be luck.

They are a better team then us from construction to drafts.

Not really relying on him to be the best player, but a decent player would be nice. Like two of the guys playing today for the blazers who were chosen behind bargs. Why is it that they're expected to contribute but Toronto fans can't expect the same from a guy chosen before them?

I wonder how long the Bargs-at-center experiment
will be allowed to continue.
His stats are starting to look like Hoffa's, altho Hoffa
could at least rebound.

Frye is such a good shooter. Why can't Bargnani do that anymore?

What a terrible non-call on Roy. These refs probably woulda given Bargs a Flagrant 2 for that.

And my point is that your original point is stupid and so you probably are stupid and maybe you should never ever post. On anything.
