Andrea Bargnani, season report

I started covering the 1st season of Bargnani in the NBA with the intention of covering his stats month by month, but that for one reason or another, it didn't work out...
But now that the season is over, I would like to present you with his final numbers... but before that, just to mention that the NBA playoffs now are already at the second round... Bargnani's Raptors were eliminated by the New Jersey Nets 4-2 in the first round. Despite that, it has to be noted that Toronto finished the season with a winning record of 47-35, a winning percentage of 57.3 and an improvement of 20 victories compared to last year that brought personal accolades, like the Atlantic division title, the insertion of Bargnani into the all-rookies NBA team (together with teammate Jorge Garbajosa) and especially with coach Sam Mitchell being nominated Coach of the Year... maybe, soon to come, GM Bryan Colangelo could be nominated GM of the year too... he probably deserves it...


Note that Bargnani missed about 4 weeks due to an appendicectomy, and that he recovered just on time for the start of the playoff, but at least 7Kg below his fitness level...

Here the numbers:

Season
25.1 min played, 42.7% FG, 37.3% 3-pointers, 82.4% FT, 3.9 Rebs, .8 Assists, .5 Steals, 1.65 TO, .8 Blocks, 11 Points and 2.8 PF

Here you can see him right after the final moments of the decisive defeat in NJ that ended his playoff run... see you next year, Andrea...
