Bargnani vs Magic / Nov. 1st, 2009

slow start again for Bargs who only had 4 pts after the 1st half... but then he had a little "incident" late in the 3rd quarter with Barnes which somehow ignited him and he made 22 pts in 10 mins, incl a sick crossover on Ryan Anderson !

he finished with 26 pts (8of12 FGM of which 4 from downtown, 4 rebs, 1blk). The problem seems still to be his rebounding/defense which he needs to improve to take his game to the next level. However, defense seems to be the weakness for Raptors in general, starting with Jose Calderon which often can't stay in front of his direct opponent.

belli shud get more mins..and andrea is the 2nd best center in the4 league

[hoiduda]

scoring wise andrea is surely one of the best centers but he needs to improve defense/rebouding to make it to a center "all star" level

this game here reminded me of Dirk...how he bounced back after a quiet 1st half

[nowitzki41icon]

yes Belinelli has got to get more minutes!

patience... is the key.. THE ONLY THING THAT PISSES THE SHIT OUT OF ME IS BELINELI PLAYING 5 minutes.
