Bargnani Makes The Heat Fall Like Bowling Pins

 By RaptorTalk

We were sitting centre court for Friday's loss to the Miami Heat and saw two very sweet, jaw-dropping moves.

In that game, Andrea Bargnani made a drive, stop and fake move that resulted in Canadian Joel Anthony and ex-Raptor Jermaine O'Neal literally fall down like a couple of bowling pins. Andrea then calmly hit the short jumper.

Have a look for yourself:





Andrea's averages as the starting center for the Raptors are updated and are:

19.2 ppg,  6.5 rpg,  48% FG,  45% 3PT

Now, this was the second move like this. The first was early in the game when Dwayne Wade broke Anthony Parker's ankles and left him on the floor, while D-Wade nailed an easy jump shot.

By the way, Wade is good .... real good. Watching him live and healthy, it is clear he is an elite player in the same category as Kobe Bryant and Lebron James as far as being a difference maker. With no Dwayne in the line-up, the Raptors would have won.

No doubt, Dwayne Wade is a top five NBA player right now and a strong case could be made for top three - he's that good.
