Bargnani and Belinelli shine as Italy beats Israel

jeffb · 08-18-2010, 08:11 PM

Quote:

Andrea Bargnani had 26 points for Italy and Israel star Omri Casspi - who had 20 points of his own - admitted the Toronto Raptors star was the difference in the game.
"People have seen Italy's results and doubted their ability, but they have a huge star and you have seen how one star can carry a team on his back."

Quote:

Marco Belinelli was instrumental in the success and posted 14 points, eight rebounds and six assists.

Hopefully he plays like this with the raptors.

jakapono24 · 08-18-2010, 08:38 PM

looked like KG with all those fade-aways. AB doing his thing, keep it up!

**finstock** · 08-18-2010, 08:51 PM

A very sexual display, especially in the post!

Bargs with the euro step around 5:30

Belli is looking good too...too bad there weren't any minutes left for him in TO

Bargs taking it to Israel's front line of 6'5" and 6'8"

I like it, but the NBA is a little different.

Man, we traded the phantom of the opera for Julian Wright.

LX · 08-18-2010, 09:43 PM

Are they ever going to play a real team?

just4_raps · 08-18-2010, 10:07 PM

Bargs's jumper is sooo wet

moremilk · 08-18-2010, 10:35 PM

Didn't this happen a week or so ago? Pretty sure we covered this game back then ...

RaptorsFan95 · 08-18-2010, 10:38 PM

Bargs is dominating ^^. Hopefully he keeps it up

Dark Knight · 08-18-2010, 10:42 PM

I like how we follow up that embarrassment vs. Montenegro with this. Very savvy.

Someguy again · 08-18-2010, 11:20 PM

we are going to have an up and down season, I hope Miami resorts to playing Bosh at the 5, that would be fun.

DonMughal · 08-18-2010, 11:31 PM

Bellinelli looks sharp. Bargnani is playing like he wants to prove his critics wrong.

thought · 08-18-2010, 11:33 PM

so...who still thinks he's not going to be able to deal with double teams?

Well, he's a good passer, but his recognition and awareness skills seem to be sub-par, so who knows.

He'll have problems.
