Barbosa said it could be as much as two weeks before he plays again.

bummer but i still think the suns are a complete/deep team w/o barbs.

Barbs hasn't been Barbs anyways, I think it's time to part ways, and if we get a good enough defender that can hit the long bomb, we can bring JRICH off the bench in a scoring only role.

He was playing really good tonight. I hope he recovers soon.

God no. Studs can fill in or even Clark. Won't hurt Rich to play more minutes, either.

Phoenix Stan wrote:Leandro Barbosa has had a rough start to the season. After starting the first two games in place of the suspended Jason Richardson (he averaged 20.5 pts) Leandro re-injured his wrist in the third game against the Timberwolves and has struggled since. And by "struggled" I mean 11.2 points on 47.5% shooting and 41.7% from three.

I can think of a few teams that could use that kind of "struggle" off their bench.

More at the link, good read.

Hope he heels up soon, be good to get the little injuries sorted out

NO to Tucker. I'd like to see more Clark at the 3 and Hill at the 2

I'd consider playing Dragic at the 2 before thinking about Tucker. Perhaps slide Hill or Dudley to the 2.

Maybe give JRich more minutes, I dunno. Sucks though. LB can't catch a break, first the wrist and now this.

Wonder where they will get scoring from with the second unit, we all saw that they struggled to get 17 points in the second quarter...Hope he comes back soon.

Dragic and Nash when they've been in have been good. Richardson is our SG though so we're fine

Gentry will probably give Tuck some fair minutes one night just to see if he can play.

Post #15 » by **Qwigglez** » Mon Nov 30, 2009 2:05 am

I'm sure we'll see more Clark especially against the amazing Knicks.

Anything to see Barbosa off the floor is cool with me. Until he learns how to pass and play team ball, I'll still hate on him.

I hope he feels better though

Barbs is our best 6th man. He's won games for us consistently. Lamer!

How can you hate Barbosa?

It's like hating a puppy
