Andrea Bargnani will never be a great defender or rebounder, some people just need to get over that fact. He definitely has the talent to be a 20ppg scorer, he has a great jumper with range, he's an underrated shotblocker.

Chris Bosh will play PF, and Andrea will play C, or vice versa possibly. They won't be playing the same position obviously.

I bet you havnt watched him at all this year, so you really wouldn't know. He's actually decent defending in the post this year, and this is only his first year. His defense will surely improve, and hopefully his perimeter defense will become respectible as well.Edit: and like I said before, Dirk was a terrible rebounder when he first came into the league. It will take time and practice, but there is no doubt in my mind that Andrea will atleast average over 8 rpg...

They both were small forwards.

Stop nitpicking my posts.</div>Just stop. You can't convince CB4 of anything about a Raptors player that he doesn't think is true, he's such a homer that its impossible. But IMO he won't be a 20 ppg scorer for another season or two, but I think he will eventually get there. He also has the potential to be a pretty decent defender but I personally don't think he will end up that way, but hey, we'll see.
Personly, I gotta agree, I dont see Bosh and Bargnani both getting 20ppg....im not saying eiter is capable, but I dont see how they can together. The again, you have to remember Bargnani can play from the perimeter...so you never know.

Andrea essentially plays like a guard/center anyway, so it's possible.And Yankshater, Im just going to ignore you.
