    It must take a lot of alcohol to manage being a Nets fan

    Brook Lopez and Andre Bargnani frontcourt . A match made in heaven for the opposite team.
    Billy King putting in the work, as usual.

    LOL, the Kings couldn't even close on a scrub like Bargnani. They are a complete joke of a franchise.

    I wouldn't want bargs, we can have only so many contracts and we already have plenty depth at the PF spot.

    Doesn't this mean better chance for kings to get Smith?

    yeah. But since they were alr after Bargnani maybe means that Smith already turned them down, or he was too indecisive and they wanted to hurry before all the fa were gone.

    Also the Nets did the Kings a favour here. Much better not add Bargnani in a mix of Cousins and Rondo.

    What? How is it their fault he wants to be in NYC? Sacramento may be a joke of a place to live.

    Bargnani is terrible. He rebounds worse than DMo, while he defends worse than TJones (much worse).

    Seems like this off-season the Kings have thrown money at EVERYONE and nobody beside Rondo really took the bait. I kind of feel bad for a franchise that has been rebuilding for 9 years just to blow it up every few years and start over. I think Bargnani turning down the kings represents a perfect picture for the Kings off-season.

    Not unless Josh Smith wants to join the circus, which I doubt. Kings have the best clown show in the NBA by far.

    Bargnani owes Dirk for his rookie deal and Bosh for his 2nd contract.

    First foul on Dwight is Flop by Bargnani.
    Next Dwight post play Bargnani fouled Dwight before the shot (Held him with his arm)
    Then flop again and Dwight get called again.. and before the flop he held Dwight hand as well.
    But thats not the point, Bargnani personal defense is workable, the problem with him is his help D, which is pretty much non existant. His rebound is terrible as well. You can go to any Raptor forum and ask them. Its funny you find some random video with questionable calls and pretend my arguments are invalid.
