1st or 2nd option isn't so important... he was clearly the go-to-guy of the team in key moments of the game (and i suppose the 1st scorer)... he was one of the 2-3 most important players in the team and had a high status and was a clear starter.

Bargnani in the beginning of this season was "only" a talented young guy... a 6th or 7th man from the bench... but game after game he earned respect from older teammates and from the coach as well as PT and status in the Benetton... now he's a starter (for 2 months, not more) but still not the 1st or 2nd offensive option because of his age. So Andrea has to battle against that, not only with his opponents...

In the ends his stats are impressive, considering ALL, while i probably can't say the same about Morrison (in his sophomore year; this year had an impressive season)...

Re: Bargnani = Euro League Rising Star

I like Bargnani from what I've seen of him and heard about him...He would be at the top of my list if we didn't draft Morrison...

I'm just not convinced that he'd be a better player than Morrison....but my bias does play a wee bit of a role in that...

I wouldn't say they're too similar number-wise.

Re: Bargnani = Euro League Rising Star

I think this draft comes down to 2 players, Andrea and Adam. Both are similar, yet very different at the same time. Their my top 2, over LaMarcus and TT. Unless, of course, Aldridge comes into workouts and proves he is passionate about playing ball. Then their are 3 options IMO

Re: Bargnani = Euro League Rising Star

Bargnani has until tonight to make his decision to go pro....Its going to be interesting waiting to see if he makes an announcement, as of yet, him and Splitter both haven't announced that they're entering....

If he doesn't announce I think it totally changes the landscape of the draft and assures that Morrison is the Blazers guy..

Andrea doesn't want to talk about the draft. Now he's focused only on his team (Benetton Treviso) and the upcoming italian playoffs... he prefers facts to words.

Re: Bargnani = Euro League Rising Star

He's even got a nickname already...Andrea "Mago" Bargnani

That's "The Wizard" for those of you who don't speak Italian.
