They've wanted a stretch 4 and a rim protector for years to play alongside Cousins. Cauley-Stein and Bargnani answered that. Plus, they have Koufus too. That team has suddenly become really big, pretty talented (although they are in the west), deep, and have improved their perimeter shooting with Italians Bellinelli and Bargnani.

PG-   Rajon Rondo
        Darren Collison

SG-   Ben McLemore
        Marco Belinelli

SF-   Rudy Gay
        Omri Casspi
        Caron Butler

PF-   DeMarcus Cousins
        Andrea Bargnani

C-    Willie Cauley-Stein
       Kosta Koufos

I saw some people killing this.  I get that it's Bargs and I don't love the guy either but he makes a lot of sense for them.  He's a guy who can play he just has gotten paid way too much.  If the price is reasonable I think it makes a lot of sense.

Come on Kings, keep spending and adding talent, you and any team not named Mavs need to get better to push them out!!!

Kings looks like they are in win-now mode

Barring chemistry issues and injuries

This team should make a case for 8th seed

However for some reason I believe Kings will overpay barganani as both raptors and NY have before
He has an ok outside shooting for a big man
But he doesn't do much else
He's not a great defender, passer or rebounder
And not an inefficient scorer

Probably very little. I doubt he'll have a large impact at all.

Not sure how I feel about him on the Nets. Could be quick offense for them off of the bench. Ultimately, I don't think he helps them all that much.

Did this signing just gift wrap a top 5 pick to the Cs?

Whatever. Bargs is a shell of his former self and hasn't played more than half a season since 2011.

If you David Lee haters think Lee is bad on defense, wait until you watch Andrea Bargnani.
