Remember he did average 21.5 points per game in 2009. I know he is not putting in 41 a game--but what the video shows is what he can do if he consistently gets GOOD position and keeps his 3 point shots to 2 or less. I don't mind situational or wide open 3's but if the coaching staff can keep him at TWO 2 3's a game his FG % should move back to above 47%. remember for his career 20% of his FG are 3 point attempts--that is way way too high. There has to be a statistics guy and someone with common sense on the KNicks that will say Andrea--14 feet or in UNLESS youre wide open. But you cannot set up at the 3 pt line if he does this Woodson should be fired quickly and bring in a coach who gets it--BUT I think Woodson gets it. This video proves what he can do playing a majority of plays 14 feet and in.

Nobody has questioned his talent. In fact people ahve been very fair/objective when it comes to bargnani. Yes ihe can shoot for a big man and that will help against most teams. However the Knicks biggets weakness is inside. Also you have to take into account that Bargnani has been injury prone.

your right and I hope we get another big but, I see Bargs as more of a Novak replacement than an actual big. People focus on his size as opposed to his personal style of play. He is a big that never learned to play like a big imo.....more like guys who plays guard as a teenagers then has this huge growth spurt. At that point, it's hard to completely alter your game to suit what people think it should be because of your size.

Bargs game is nothing like Novaks... that's the point of the tape. You guys wanna say he is a Novak replacement but he is way more than a 3pt specialist. The dude can score all over the court and he will drive and dunk on your team. When had Novak ever done that.?

Bargs isn't Shaq and he isn't Patrick Ewing. The dude is still very good. He's a capable starter and legit scorer when healthy. Health is the issue. Training camp will solve all doubts.

you obviously didn't read or comprehend my entire post. I didn't describe Bargs as a one e dimensional 3point shooter. I said he played like a guard who had a huge growth spurt and never learned to change his game. That doesn't sound like Novak to me!!

Barg's is going to stretch the floor and, if he stays healthy, give us the Bosh effect on O. Spread 'em, Hibbert!

And let's see, Woody took a career psycho and got him to SMOTY, and Melo averaged 8 rpg and showed flashes on D. Things can happen here.

The league owes us a year of health.

Watch the games!
