Yeah, so many people here don't care about anything other than PPG.

yea, people are going nuts over one game in which bargnani took 25 shots to get 25 points.. I think people are so excited with seeing him resemble anything other than a bust, that they overrate last nights game vs the bobcats, and the same with carmelo.. his first decent game of the year.. well gooooly ( in my gomer pile voice) the dude is getting 20 mil a year, nice to see him play a decent game one out of 4..

during the course of the year, almost every player will have a game or two in which he looks like a MVP calibre player.. the difference is, the good players give this every night or most nights.. bargnani hasn't, doesn't, won't..

good win for the knicks no doubt, but no need to go overboard.. what chandler was bringing every night was more valuable to this team, and he has proven he can do it over the course of a season. that will be missed.. I could care less if bargnani ever played another minute.. he is a bum.. get chandler back soon!!

Bargnani didn't have a great game because of the points, it was his aggressiveness on both ends, 8 boards, 5 blocks, and he showed toughness. The scoring was great but he played an all around game that was beyond expectations when we needed it most.


8 boards in 35 minutes is pretty bad for a center actually. Obviously the 5 blocks are great though.

you don't want this guy taking 25 shots a night.

knicks win 38-43 games in 16-17. rose MUST shoot no more than 14 shots per game, defer to kp6 + melo, and have a usage rate of less than 25%

Look here's the thing. Bargnani isn't naturally a high motor guy that loves contact. Woody and the rest of the Knicks are trying to coach him up on how to do these things and so it's not about the "Purist" view of how AB plays as a center. He's not a natural Center!!! However, he can be a great plus if he's confident and the team gives him more touches. Right now this is about building this guys character and pride in his defense. He's learning how it feels to be "the guy" in the middle. Mostly he's stayed out of the paint, but with help he can learn to be more forceful and still provide a good scoring punch.

AB isn't even all the way there physically yet. I think along with being tentative he's also not been in great shape yet and his missing shots is part of his not being at top form yet. I personally don't think he's scratched the surface of how talented he is. How many C's have you seen move as well as he does laterally staying in front of smaller players? KG comes to mind, but not a lot of guys. The way he drove on that crossover play is an indication of his agility. If Woody can coach him up this kid still has upside. Guys here haven't seen this guy when he's HOT yet and if he does get to that point at the same time offering more effort on the other end then look out.

blkexec wrote:After listening to Bargs post game interview, not I understand why there are so many ISO's or inconsistent offensive play. Bargs said they are free to do what they want to do on offense, as long as they play defense. Thats explains everything! We will continue to be up and down all year, until Woodson provides more structure on offense.

"On offense you do what you want. on defense you do what I want."

- Red Holzman

Pro basketball players respect coaches that give them freedom. Scripting plays is for college. NBA defenses are too sophisticated and too athletic to run any play to perfection, a majority of the time.

Ever Note that Mike woodson diagrams effective plays out of timeouts?

You play the position your assigned to play. The refs don't give you a rebounding handicap if you start at PF at center.

He's 7 foot and played a lot of center for toronto. I'd consider him a center, he's got the size and the ability. he also can be a headache for opposing centers because of his range.

Ok so he's not a great rebounder, which we already knew. We needed those 8 boards tho and the end result was a solid win on the road. If he can be up around that many rebounds consistently this team will have a great chance to win games. Not many C's are as much of a threat from as many spots on the floor as AB is and so it balances out since he's probably drawing more guys away from the basket as he moves, which should lead to more offensive rebound opportunities.

Did he not exceed expectations for rebounding and toughness that helped lead to a win when we needed it most?

I do if thy are open. I said in the game thread when he was struggling that he is our x factor. The amount of open looks he get is ridiculous. All those bricked shots were open. The one he took that were not open was when he had an open shot and pump faked his way into a contested shot. I don't mind a player shooting 30 times if they are open shots and he is a decent shooter. I would not want a player like Brewer or Ben Wallace shooting that many open shots.

C'mon Bonn. You've gotta say it in one sentence. 25 points, 8 rebounds and 5 blocks. I know if your center was giving you this line nightly, you'd be one happy fan

So, with that in mind, do the Pacers guard him with Hibbert, leaving the center open. Or do they send West or Copeland out to check him at the top of the key?

during the course of the year, almost every player will have a game or two in which he looks like a MVP calibre player.. the difference is, the good players give this every night or most nights.. bargnani hasn't, doesn't, won't..

good win for the knicks no doubt, but no need to go overboard.. what chandler was bringing every night was more valuable to this team, and he has proven he can do it over the course of a season. that will be missed.. I could care less if bargnani ever played another minute.. he is a bum.. get chandler back soon!!

Bargnani didn't have a great game because of the points, it was his aggressiveness on both ends, 8 boards, 5 blocks, and he showed toughness. The scoring was great but he played an all around game that was beyond expectations when we needed it most.


8 boards in 35 minutes is pretty bad for a center actually. Obviously the 5 blocks are great though.

C'mon Bonn. You've gotta say it in one sentence. 25 points, 8 rebounds and 5 blocks. I know if your center was giving you this line nightly, you'd be one happy fan


Yes, but only because of the 5 blocks and because Tyson is injured. 25 points on 25 shots is bad.

Yeah, so many people here don't care about anything other than PPG.

MOST of the shots he took were great shots that he just missed. You're being WAY too critical of the final stat line. There will be nights where he hits for a higher % on those and then he'll have a huge night. Just accept that this guy has that kind of talent. It's not that hard to see that if he gets fully comfortable out there he can go for 30+ on any night. It's a plus to have a guy that has that kind of talent in the mix.

we are talking about the bobcats not the bulls, pacers, heat, and yes the nets. i know we have to start somewhere but... do you see this guy being effective in the playoffs with his game? please tell me you learned from last season that there is such a thing as a fool's gold player?

for starters he HAS TO draw fouls by getting to the rim on drives. and i mean 6 fta a game minimum. this volume shooting spells doom in the playoffs.

knicks win 38-43 games in 16-17. rose MUST shoot no more than 14 shots per game, defer to kp6 + melo, and have a usage rate of less than 25%

Then in those nights I'll say that he shot the ball well but Sangfroid asked about my reaction to the last game

This is just stupid. When a player has a good game just f'n give him credit for a good effort. What's with all this qualifying B.S.? We needed a win badly and Bargs stepped up and played well. He filled a need for this team and stopped the bleeding for one night. Hopefully he can continue to help this team win games. It's just nice to be happy about a player doing well for OUR TEAM. I can't get with all the F'n bunch of Negative Nancy's among Knick fans. A player has a good night for our team and cuz he missed a few wide open shots we've got to throw salt in his game over that? That's some BULL. Bargs went 11 of 25, If Bargs hits 2 more of his jumpers that rimmed out, he's at +50%. WTF is wrong with you?

I'm looking forward to Bargs being in better shape so that he has the legs to shoot a better % while still giving effort on the other end. We have to remember that he came in behind the rest of the team in terms of his fitness level.

A Little Proud of Bargnani
