Figured I would give this a shot.

That N'Diaye kid is huge.

Not impressed by Barnes so far.

Wow, Zeller on back to back transition dunks.

The kid can run the floor. And he has that nice baseline hook.

Still not seeing anything from Barnes that is wowing me.

He floats around. He makes some shots by spotting up. Nice player. He seems to have an accurate shot but is that your top pick if you are the Wiz.

I think we need someone who is more impact by driving or a post player big

thats why i'd like to get Kanter with our first pick

Barnes would be a nice pick up if we can trade back into the lottery

And he is playing SF ? He floats around like a spot up SG.

Barnes' fans say he steps up big time when the spotlight is on, so lets see what happens in the 2nd half of this very exciting game. So far, Zeller and Barnes have shot very well but done very little else - combining for 1 rebound (at the end of the half) and 1 assist. UNC should do better on the boards in the 2nd half.

Huge block and rebound by Henson leading to huge 3 by Barnes - as UNC finally gets a 2 point lead with 4 minutes to go. Great game - Washington has been shooting lights out.

Glad I recorded it. I will have to go back and watch. I ran out for a sec and missed the second half.

So how did Barnes look ?

I see he got no FTA. 2 rebounds

Settling for jumpers is definitely a concern with Barnes. I am not sure if he would really be a better pick than Williams even though Barnes seems a natural fit at the 3.

Yeah my optimism on Barnes has also dampened quite a bit...

He looks more and more like an glorified jumpshooter which we already have in Nick Young... Williams looking like the better pick right now; He can get to the ft-line at will, and his jumpshot is not to shabby either...

I'm not sold on Barnes either. He seems to float through games, and although he does seem like a clutch player, I just can't see him contributing on offense in an efficient way. Defensively he seems pretty solid though...I don't know, if we get a top 3 pick I wouldn't take him. He's probably worthy of a selection in the 4-7 range.
