Celts Interested in Barbosa

[GD2]

He can light the Clippers up in November with the best of 'em. He's one of the best 20 point scorers in the league, I say that because he's about as lethal as it gets when his team is up or down by 20+ points.

As far as lighting a legit playoff team up in the playoffs, he's about as useful as an a**hole on your elbow.

The Nash Dragic argument has nothing to do with all the dumb decisions he makes driving the ball, forcing shots with 20 seconds left on the clock, or all the wide open shots he misses at key times during the playoffs.

You know, even though Hedo got roasted by the media in TO, i was impressed with his game - but he's very much a team guy. Loves to make the great pass.

he would be a great add if we could move barbs


also, the whole "took the game off and went out partying" thing was created by the TO media - it's been very much explained. You can look it up but - the team advised him to take the game off, his countyrmen or nat'l team or similar were in the city and he mroe or less went downstairs to say hi - drank a soda, went back to bed

really a non-scandal. he seems to be a good guy

Compleetly agree, he is the most frustrating player on the suns since Diaw left. As i have stated here before, i am so tired of him driving to the basket jumping and being close enough to dunk the damn ball to be sure, only to see one of the ugly underhanded flip shot roll across the rim or donk off the backboard. He seems not to be on the same page as the rest of the team thats on the floor at any time. I thought Dragic looked better at the 2 before he got back and had to play only point.

If we could get a Hedo for barbs, i wouldnt be against it. Then add a vet min like RAJA!!!! HELL YES!!! Raja is old, but he could share time with Dudley!! You know exactly what you get with a guy like Bell, he is going to play his a$$ off every time. And you know he and Nash were boyz!!

Yup, Barbosa is terrible at finishing in traffic. He's scared of contact and loves those stupid flip shots rather than just finishing strong. Diaw overshadowed how frustrating he was while Diaw was here because Diaw was SO much more frustrating but now Barbosa's bad decision making has been exposed more.

The problem with Barbosa wasn't shooting IMO. It was his boneheaded plays. Driving in traffic only to find himself trapped between 4 guys and lose the ball. He needs to play off the ball. Give the ball to Dragic and let him create. This is something for Gentry to fix. He can do it if he wants to.
