06:13 PM ET 12.14 | Toronto Raptors forward Andrea Bargnani didn't mince words when he was asked about the state of his team in an interview with an Italian newspaper. "We were built to win but we don't. We are the worst team in the NBA right now. We are way below all the expectations. None of us got the confidence for playing with the others. We won only four games. It is a tragedy," he said. Bargnani himself has played far below expectations and is expected to miss some time after injuring his elbow.

Hey, at least they have competition from 3 other teams for the worst record in the league.

Rich coming from the most apathetic player on the team.
He is an embarrassment, and needs to be traded at all costs.

This team is in need of a new era sans Bargnani, coupled with a new GM that isn't so carefree with long shot contracts to unproven players.

I'm trying to find a positive about the Raptors. The only thing I can come up with is the 2 of us are fans :)
