Now I'm happy. UNC just needs to give Barnes some more open looks and they should be fine. When Barnes becomes a threat, opposing teams forget about McAdoo, Zeller and company, and that is where UNC will be at an advantage.

I still stand by what Kerr said. Barnes needs to be set up by good PG play in order to make baskets.


I think more than anything he needs a great coach who can provide some structure for him. I think he's very similar to Andrea in that way.

Barnes is the most popular prospect outside of David by a huge margin.


Huh, what? not really. Oh Harry hits another one, yay!

Barnes cannot shoot. Look at his percentages.


:-?

Same can be said about Bradley Beal, but we all know he can shoot.


Someone with poor percentages cannot be called a good shooter. He shot under 43% as a freshman and hes around 45. When we drafted vince he was shooting 59% for UNC.

Im all for barnes proving me wrong. Im still rooting for him.

If Robinson goes to a team where he starts right away (Probably every high lottery team except us), he will be ROY. He's already got an NBA body, and he's killing Henson and Zeller.

Zeller and Henson are baby food for Robinson. And Barnes hit another one. :D
