Andrea Bargnani has learned not to read what people are writing about him.
And that's probably a good thing, because the critics have not been kind to the Toronto Raptors sophomore centre lately.
It's a good thing he doesn't read some of the stuff that gets posted here, or he might never recover.

Stop hurting Bargnani's feelings.

in other words, Bargnani has realgm.com on his Blocked Sites list in his browsers Preferences
Joking aside, it's good the kid knows how to channel his focus, and be more positive

Maurizio installed NetNanny upon his arrival to north america for him, this is fact.

Bargnani will develop into a very, very good player. He has too much talent. Its a matter of patience and confidence. Last night's 20/7/7 was a good sign of what he's capable of achieving.

Glad to see a respected poster/longtime STH have faith in kid.

It's clear he doesn't let much get to him, he's probably as mentally strong as they come.

Thanks. I don't post often about Bargnani because there's not much to say. He's played poorly for much of this year. That can't be denied.
However, despite all the criticism I believe he will become an excellent NBA player and I'm not writing him off. No way.

We might do well not to get carried away here.

He strikes me as an emotionally vulnerable guy that will let every critic get to him. There are two sides to "soft".

I think it has something to do with his struggles this season.
That being said, he's a unique player with heaps of talent. His shot is so pure. As leo said last night, Fans and the coaching staff have been beating defence/rebounding into his head... He should just focus on "getting his" offensively, and everything else will fall into place, just like last night.
Forza Magoooooooooooo
