these fukkin stat geeks across sports are killing me. the NBA reg season is literally not even a week old yet.
You don't need 3 days worth of stats to know that you're going to be significantly worse defensively with Bargnani out on the floor. He's terrible. Why do you think The Raps were so desperate to get rid of him and his contract? Lo and behold The Knicks trade for him. :heh:

Toronto is trying to rid itself of their whole entire squad, less one. :mjpls:

Bargnani is the reason the Knicks are 1-2?

It's like people don't even watch the games.

No one's said that. Bargs wouldn't be such a disaster on the floor if Woodson played him so much.

Meanwhile he's played his most productive lineup (Felton-Prigs-Shump-Melo-Tyson) for a total of 8 minutes this season. :snoop:

He says he wants to play his BIG lineup, but it's amazing he can't see the irony of playing Bargnani in that lineup.

Bargs isn't even averaging 20 Min a game

I find it completely ironic that some of you are giving credence to these metrics, when the same exact metrics said Novak should be on the floor more.

20.3 minutes actually. And he's playing with the first unit, making it worse.

Bargs inclusion in the starting 5 has no correlation with Felton playing like a piece of shyt.

The last 2 games he's played well on both ends, I'm not going to use a 60 min sample size to point to why the Knicks lost the last 2 games.

THjr is the worst defender on the Knicks and he's been the beneficiary of his teammates playing with a sense of urgency when it comes to +/-
