Ford's articles on Bargnani & Colangelo

he doesn't create shot by himself also because of the type of play here in europe:is very difficult to see a "call" for an isolation;you can see more pick and roll than in nba and a lot of three shots.however bargnani has an incredible % on shots with 2 or 3 second left on the clock.He is lethal because if you try to mark him when he is behind the line he always beat you with his incredible first step and go for a dunk(da brat video...).however bargnani is the kind of player that improve game after game and i think  is a kind of silent leader.he is not bad at rembound and he is the best bloker of the league(yesterday,game 2 of the final he was named mvp of the match with 17 points,7 rembuonds and 6!!! blocks (two on dalibor that is not ewing but is big big)in 30 minutes.).you can see him play post rarerely cause he play as 4.sometimes he go in post position but opponents make foul before he catch the ball.I don't think he has,at the moment,a great post game...he has 90% on ft and he go a lot of times from the line.his mentality is certain winninng. I think he is not so aggressive on the court but also duncan...you all are frghtend that AB can be the next skita.i tell you he is a real basketball player(i can't say if he is going to be a superstar or not).he is not skita,milicic or pavel poldkozki??(the big one of dallas).these players NEVER play in euroleague:nba scouts saw that they were young with a good body,look a couple of training sessions and fall in love with them;no one knew them in europe before they arrived in nba!!!!.bargnani is a greate player that had played at the higest level in europe for the last 3 years(and he is only 20 years).and DON'T tell me that play against same aged players like you do in ncaa is the same thing.so..........
TAKE bargnani with the second pick(expecially if the raptors take alderige or morrison for portland or atlanta) tabo sefolosha with the 16 pick(he is a very good player) and a center with a trade or from the free agents.GO BULLS GO

i agree with you.
However in italy newspapers said that nba tv bought tv rights of italian finals.did nobody saw game 1 or game 2? if you see these games i think you can well understand what are bargnani's positives and negatives.
a lot of people come to see bargnani live.when benetton treviso came here in udine(my teame call "snaidero udine" and was the team for charles smith,sasha vujacic,john wallace,john lucas...)i was sitting near 2 bobcats scout.larry BIRD saw from live the game of the "da brat" highlights;also ainge,colangelo sam mitchell and kevin mcneal come in italy for AB.but bulls?? I never heard about bull's scouts that came here? do you think bulls are really interest on bargnani?  
i can tell you that sefolosha is better than roy.lakers saw him a million of times live,vlade divac said to italian tv that he remember to him the first kobe.with jr bremer and riky minard he bring his little team to the playoffs.he is ready for nba.
TT is very intense but you can't be a PF in the nba if you are only 6'8 with shoes and he is 0 in offence(only dunks,but against 19 years old guys).Alderige has soft hands but he is a a "breadstick" and can't difend on nba centers(at the moment).marcus williams and rudy gay are,in my opinion,now ready for nba but bulls have a lot of guys in their position.
