Thou shalt not blaspheme against the Euro, the Euro is the chosen man whilst the non Euro possesses the flesh of swine.

1. Andrea Bargnani, is the lord our God. You shall have no gods before him.

2. You shall not make wrongful use of the name Andrea Bargnani.

3. Remember the 2006 Draft Day and keep it holy.

4. Honour Jerry Colangelo for giving you this job

5. You shall not rebound.

6. You shall not commit help defence.

7. You shall not steal.

8. You shall bear false witness to the Caliper Test.

9. You shall not covet anything inside the Three Point Line

10. You shall not covet existing players that are better then Andrea Bargnani.

1. Andrea is the Lord your God, which hath brought thee out of the land of promise and into the house of lottery. Thou shalt have no other gods before he...not even Christoph Boshua.

2. Thou shalt not take the name of Andrea the Lord thy God in vain.

3. Remember the 41 days at the ACC and keep them holy. Effort is not mandatory away from the house of MLSE.

4. Honour thy fellow GMs and bring forth a sacrifice of draft picks.

5. Thou shalt not kill the bottom line. If ever thou faceth a fork in the path between the bottom line and the NBA championship, do not covet the championship for the bottom line is holy.

6. Thou shalt not commit adultery against the Chosen People of Italia.

7. Thou shalt not steal, neither in trades nor drafts. If ever should thou steal, thou shalt offer a sacrifice of undeserving contracts to repent for this unholy act.

8. Thou shalt bear false witness at every opportunity.

9. Thou shalt not covet players not of the Holy Land of Euro.

10. Thou shalt not covet players who put forth effort on more than one end of the court, nor possess the ability to do so should they ever feel the urge.

Thou shalt not bear true witnesses against thy Franchise player, Andrea Bargnani.

Honor your bald, mild mannered coach and your fat meatball assistant GM, so that your days may be long and sad in the team that the lord your god is giving you.

Give us our daily threes, forgive us of our blown coverages, as we have forgiven our coverers
why was hakeem called "the dream"??"

Because it rhymes with 'Olajuwon'.

Bryan Colangelo's Creed

I believe in Me, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth.
I believe in Andrea Bargnani, my only Son, our Lord.
He was conceived by the power of Maurizio Gherardini and born of some Virgin.
He suffered in the post, was crucified, died, and was buried.
He descended to the three point line. On the third day he rose again for a rebound.
He ascended into the air and was seated on his ass at the right hand side of the basket.
He will come again to judge those who stole rebounds from him
I believe in the Three Point Shot,
the pump fake and travel, the Caliper Test,
the lack of accountability,
the awesomness of six rebounds,
and the everlasting Draft Lottery.
Amen

And lead us not into [playoff] contention, but deliver us early summers.

Don't aim high off your own draft picks
