Andrea Bargnani out w/ torn elbow ligament

Andrea Bargnani is out indefinitely after being diagnosed with a torn ligament in his left elbow.

Bargnani complained about having a "sore arm" after Wednesday's game, and it turns out that he had torn a ligament late in the third quarter. It's yet another terrible blow for the Knicks, who are already without Kenyon Martin and Amare Stoudemire due to ankle injuries. Carmelo Anthony will likely slide to PF with Pablo Prigioni shifting into the starting lineup until some big men filter back into the lineup, and backup center Jeremy Tyler should also see more action.

I don't think we will suffer a whole lot without him as long as Amare and Kenyon get back.

Lol nah, I like Bargs, his game is awkward, especially on defense, but I like him and has been a big part in our little bit of success this year.
