Rumor: Raptors going for J. O'Neal, Diaw

[Skills]

You could play Bargnani at the 3 when facing teams like Orlando, who have guys like Turkoglu and Lewis alternating at the 3.

Bargnani is basically Vladimir Radmanovic, but a couple inches taller, so why not?

[Its_asdf]

If the Raptors do put him at the 3, expect next to no slashing from him. Slashing is the key ingredient for the Raptors scoring, which ironically is what Ford provided, even if he would always spin into the lane out of control and throw up some retarded lob or layup. Bargnani simply parks his ass out behind the arc because I don't think he has the dribbling ability to get close to the rim. I don't even think he has the strength to post up some of the stronger small fowards in the league either. I think that for once the Raptors should pick up someone WHO CANT shoot jumpers, that way they can actually force themselves to the rim and be able to kick it out to practically any one on the floor. Moon refuses to drive, Graham can't dribble for his life, Delfino plays like a total idiot sometimes and Kapono's being paid to sit behind the arc. Parker will attack the basket from time to time, but he's slowing down and doesn't have that extra bounce to his step.

Okay so that wasn't kind of just a bunch of jumbled ideas but I'm kinda busy at the moment and also had a lot of stuff popping into my mind.

He is more a 3 than a 4 bargnani... He like a Rashard Lewis or a kind of Matt Bullard... He need to develop his shooting to keep playing

Indication that a number one pick is a bust: He's compared to Matt Bullard.

thats because the raptors might be one of the most unathletic teams in the nba.... also mitchell plays at a real slowwwwwwwwwwwww pace.
