Knicks thrilled Raptors gave up on Bargnani

“I like everything about him,’’ Woodson said. “That was the reason we brought him over. I think he’s just a talented kid who knows how to play. I’ve got to keep his spirits up and pat him when he needs to be patted and ride his [butt] when it needs to be rode.’’

“The beauty of Bargnani is he’s going to find out he’s going to have a lot of wide-open threes the way we play,’’ Woodson said. “He can make threes, put the ball on the floor and he can post up. He’s a triple threat in terms of scoring the ball.’’

not saying he could end up being #1 pick potential or whatever...but imagine this kid works out and ends up being here for like 8 years or whatever killin it? He's only 27.

Funny thing is...

For the last two years since the "Linsanity Era" all we wanted from Novak is to work to get open and take advantage of his limited skillset.

Bargnani can be lazy and give us similar production. But...It looks like Melo has taken a like to him, likes to pass to him and likes to get him involved.. So if Bargnani actually starts playing care free and starts enjoying it...


:blessed:

Also, think about the confidence boost Tim The Hard Way has right now.

nikka is like that Freshman in College who was popular in HS. He gets to his first day of COllege and does some shyt that instantly elevates him to "Bad bytches on Campus think I'm a cool nikka" status... He's going to eat just off of breaking Rookie Jitters already with that game winner.

yea, i think Melo automatically trusts him because he knows what Bargs can do. He's seen him do it for years. He's the only other guy on the team besides Melo who can hit those kinds of shots from anywhere, really.

Melo is probably a fan of Bargs' headfake too. :russ:

Melo Actually Told Him To Chill On The Head Fakes lol

He Said "I Know You're Used To Never Being Open In Toronto But Trust Me You're Gonna Get Open Looks Here, Just Take Em"

"A lot of times, he [doesn't] even need it because he's so wide open," Anthony said. "I'm telling him that sometimes, we're all gonna be on one side of the floor, and you're gonna be wide open. He has one of the deadliest shot fakes in the game, but it's just a matter of when he needs to use it and when he doesn't."

“But he’s learning,” Anthony continued. “We talked after the game and he wants to put that pump fake in his pocket for a little bit. But he needs it, he’s got one of the (nicer) shot fakes in the game right now. It’s just a matter of when he should do it or not.”

His skill set >>>>>>>>>>>> Novak by a long shot , you can't run any defender at him and get him off the 3pt line . I think analysts are underestimating how much of a impact he can bring to our team along with MWP .
