Sometimes, international signings don't work out so well.
In a Facebook post Wednesday, Andrea Bargnani said he asked for a buyout from the Nets because he didn't get the minutes he had been promised. He did not say who promised him the minutes ... or how many. Buying out the Itlalian seven-footer was Sean Marks first move after taking over as GM in February.
Translated, Bargnani's post reads...
"I chose to leave the Nets and a guaranteed contract because the conditions under which they had convinced me to sign were otherwise and being used with such limited playing time, it made no sense to continue to remain in that situation for me or for the team.
