The horror was shared amongst fanbases.   I was so surprised when we got a 1st rounder for him a few years back... it was a bit of retribution for having to put up with him for 7 years, and using a first rounder on him, and then having BC shove him down our throats.

I suspect opposing fans wonder, as I do, how the Raptors have won 104 games the last 2 years.   But whatever the formula Kyle Lowry is a major part of it.   Back at the beginning of 2012/2013 there was a clubhouse altercation on the west coast that involved Lowry as the major party and a few others being pissed at and confronting Bargnani.   Bryan Colangelo made a special trip down to the West Coast, got on the live TV broadcast the next day. and proceeded to blame almost everyone on the team for the altercation..  with one exception of course... he made it clear that Bargnani was not to blame and should not have been confronted for his play.   That story pretty much defines the 7 year Bryan Colangelo / Andrea Bargnani era.

BC claimed he was looking to trade Bargnani in his last trade deadline here, but I suspect that was a lie.   Thankfully, he was finally canned and one of the first things Ujiri did was trade Bargnani.    Ironically, the first thing that Sean Marks did as Brooklyn GM was release Bargnani within a day of being hired.

What a bum.   Bargnani.
