Which team will benifit most?

celtics, suns, spurs, rockets?..who else?

I have to say the suns because shaq is clogging up the lane big time

Rockets. With Yao dishing out DT and Tmac drive and kick, teammates get plenty of open looks. They just need to make the shots.

phoenix, they are dying for more shooters, james jones shouldnt have been traded

Texas Longhorns · Post #4 » by **Texas Longhorns** » Tue Feb 26, 2008 4:20 am

The Rockets IMO. There is an article about it too. The other teams going after him are better 3 pt shooting teams than the Rockets. The Rockets don't even have a shooter shooting about 40% this year from 3 pt range, so it would help them the most.

Now that Phoenix has lost Marion and James Jones, I think either the Suns or the Rockets need Barry the most. The Suns really are dying now that teams are clogging up the lane, but the Rockets could desperately use a shooter of Barry's caliber, esepcially someone to play backup SF since the Bonzi Wells departure.

It's definitely the Suns - JVG and Mark Jackson were right on the money with that one.

yeah Phoenix is dying for shooters...

Boris Diaw should have been traded as wel...

who are the legit 3 pt shooters on their team?

Raja Bell

really...

Rockets. They need depth at the backcourt positions more than most if not all the teams in the WC playoff hunt.

Phoenix just doesn't spread the floor enough...

i've seen them play a lineup of

Shaq, Amare, Diaw, Bell, Nash

ok..shaq can't shoot at al..Amare can shoot a 15-18 footer inconsistently, Diaw is not a 3 pt threat, Bell is a good shooter although streaky, same goes with Nash..

What? Nash shoots 46% from behind the arc. He can go nuts late in a close game.

The obvious answer is New Orleans. The only thing holding them back from being an elite team is a lack of depth. They have their core, they just need more role players. I think he'd help them the most, especially in the playoffs.

Their backcourt and wings depth is phenomenal, Barry wouldn't really fill a need as Paul, James, Peterson, Wells, Peja and Butler can all hit the three.

Its their frontcourt depth that is absolutely horrendous once you get past their very good starters.

Paul/James/Pargo
Peterson/Wells
Peja/Butler/Wright
West/Ely?
Chandler/Armstrong

The Hornets aren't even going after him.

but he makes on average about 2.5 three's a game. That is respectable.

I don't think you want someone jacking up 10 3's a game.

all i'm saying is that he's not a 3 pt shooter...
in the truest sense..

he's supposed to use his ability to shoot to his advantage to spread the D and find the open man...

you don't understand what i'm talking about at all and you're taking it out of context completly...

all i said is Nash is a point..he's supposed to have shooter around him..to finish..

he can do it but not every game..

PHX...they can't spread the floor anymore, and their offense has taken a hit.

Barbosa is a pretty good 3pt shooter isn't he? lol

I think the Jazz would take ANYONE who can shoot the 3.

Thats true . despite bringing in a very good player in bobby jax, still were a solid combo guard like brent barry short. .

Brooks whilst having a good season is still a rookie. luther is just to inconsistent to be relied on.i would feel alot better with a McGrady, Rafer, BJAX, Brent barry, Aaron brooks and luther head backcourt.
