Bargs, Calderon and why is Joey G still in T.O.?

Phil Partington (Philthy on yardbarker) asked me the following questions: Hey Sachin, What's up with Bargnani's inconsistency? Granted, he's still very young and still a bit green to the NBA style, but what do you think? Does he fit there having to play some time at the five with Bosh there? I can't see why he wouldn't. Colangelo's set up a very offensive-friendly system in Toronto. Jose Calderon's been a beast this season. Do you think it will prompt them to maybe move TJ Ford in the offseason? Here is what i think: honestly about bargs, i think since he is young, and he started off the preseason and season without his regular shooting touch, he's started to lose confidence early and now its just killing him. night's where he starts off well, he plays well because he has his confidence, if he misses those first few, there's no point really, just put him on the bench and whip a towel over his dejected head. I think he's fine where he's at with bosh in the lineup, granted only when he's producing like he should. i like that he's slashing more, but it seems like he's only doing it because he thinks he can't shoot anymore. he just needs to be more aggressive, there are times where he just sits there watching the hoop on defence and offense, he never works for the boards, maybe his and chris kaman's samples got mixed up at the lab and bargs is the one who actually has adhd, cause sometimes my man seems dazed. calderon is a beast, he's been an undercover one for a while and without tj he seems to be the number 1, and with him they play a game that tj just can't adapt too. i don't know what painkillers they inject into tj before every game, but honestly whoever is in charge might be a good friend of chris anderson. tj comes on the floor and acts like its 5-on-1 ball, ex. against the lakers on march 12 he took 23 shots in about 27 minutes. i know he made 11, but what the hell. parker was producing, move the ball around, since when do the raps ever win when one guy tries to go MJ all of a sudden? granted he played well against the warriors, still too may shots, too inconsistent. and i wouldn't use the injury as an excuse, he's fine now. just get anderson out of his juice. they need a better back-up to calderon, and i think maybe getting rid of tj is a good move, but hey, colangelo is the master, he knows what needs to be done. getting rid of graham and maybe some other under-producing paperweights would be a good move too, graham isn't a bad player, he just can't play raptors ball. we also have a problem, that we just discovered, we suck without bosh. that's a huge one. honestly, i think we have a wicked chance against orlando in the playoffs so maybe bosh's injury is a blessing in disguise. probably not. but i would NEVER want to play bron bron and big ben in the playoffs. never. what do you all think? post your comments down there.
