Andrea Bargnani tried to look inconspicuous as he loitered on the street corner in a bad part of Brooklyn. A hoodie was drawn close to his face, but he couldn’t hide his immense height, and passersby were staring at him. At least, that’s how it felt. A police car rolled by. Andrea fidgeted with his…

Andrea Bargnani 20 Points Full Highlights (1/26/2016)
First the Suns’ commentators, now the Nets’. Is everyone taking crazy pills? I get that the Nets’ season is a trainwreck and that the Brooklyn commentators can’t wait for it to be over, but it seems like they might have been on some mind-altering substances for this game. First, one of them deadpans “It helps…

There is no reason that Andrew Bargnani, RIGHT NOW, could not score 15 points a game. No reason. Look at the teammates he’s playing with! The offensive cupboards, as they say, are bare. Scoring the ball has become a burdensome chore for the Nets. Easy solution: just feed Bargs the ball like they did when…

Now that Andrea Bargnani has emerged from underneath the darksome shadow of that gigantic contract that the Raptors gave him, we can appreciate him for what he is (a tissuey jump-shooting seven-footer) rather than mock him for what he should have been (a franchise cornerstone who is a nightly threat to go bananas). 1.5 million…

Andrea Bargnani is many things: Italian, Tall, Lover of Primo Pasta and Sauce, Jump-Shooter. These adjectives all describe various aspects of his identity. And after tonight, we can add another descriptor to the ever-growing list: “Elite Rim-Protector”. I’m gonna be honest, when I saw he had four blocks in the box-score, I thought they were…

Is this what Andrea Bargnani played like when he was with Toronto? Minus the rebounds, of course. I don’t exactly remember, it was so long ago, it seems like all I have ever known is the bad version of Bargnani. This is undoubtedly the version of Bargs that the Knicks thought they were getting (again,…

Andrea Bargnani’s failings as a Knick have been well documented, but for those who may not be aware of them, I will list some of them here: – Knicks gave up a laughable amount of stuff for him in a trade, so even though he already was kind of done fans had unrealistic expectations of…

There are some people who are under the impression that Andrea Bargnani is to blame for the Knicks’ horrible season. Those people are wrong. While Bargnani has not been great and his acquisition was questionable, he is performing about as well as expected. His career-high rebound rate is evidence of this. Here are some aspects…

Bargnani sat down heavily at his desk. He was exhausted, not by the physical exertion of practice, but by the prose aching to be released from his body. Pulling to him a feather pen and a piece of stationery, he wrote: “As stars shine in the night above It is only you I think of,…
