Bargnani at the 3
Why is tonight not a night where Bargnani gets some minutes at the three... what is Tayshawn Prince going to do?
Also at the end of the game, in garbage minutes, when there is no pressure, why not put him out there over guys like Graham to get his feet wet and get some confidence and swagger back?
I know Mitchell's philosophy, but if Bargnani was playing in a "true" lottery team, he would get minutes regardless of mistakes and be allowed to shoot at will and get all the confidence int he world... when the raptors get blown out (pretty much) he should be on for garbage minutes.
Shouldnt be coach be dedicated to developing a 1st overall pick as much as possible, especially when hes struggling right now and you KNOW he is full of talent?

What every wing player has been capable of doing, take away his offensive game. It wasn't a good match up for him tonight anywhere on the floor. Maybe in the future they should put him at the 3, but definitely not against Tayshaun.

I am sick and tired of all Bustani lovers here on this board! Let's face it we WAISTED first pick overall. If you find me any #1 who had stretch of games in the middle of second season like he has I won't say a word. He might have some skills, but definitely his IQ is very low. How else you can explain his confused look after he is taken out of the games and stupidity not to try to do something different.

Kwame Brown. Something tells me that won't get you to stop talking about him though.

yeah, and mitchell said as logn as he plays D and REBBOUNDs then he will stay ont he floor... 5 reb in 16 mins... why did he get another chance to come backm int he game.. especially when he put out the line up he did in garbage time... i know rasho may be better, but honestly, when u know youre gonna lose the game anyway, developing rasho, developing graham, developing dixon, IS NOT gonna help us be a great team nextr yr or the year after... PUT ANDREA BACK IN!!!!!

So why don't we all admit that his limit is to be a player like Kwame is today. And by the way if you give me an option between two of them right now I'd take K.Brown any day of the week.
