J.J. Barea on Spurs and Rockets: 'I know they don't want to play us'


The Mavericks' mantra is that they aren't scared to play any team in a seven-game series. But they apparently believe that there are some teams that don't want any part of them in the playoffs.

"We want to move up at least one position, because I know we really match up good against San Antonio and Houston," J.J. Barea said on ESPN 103.3 FM this afternoon. "I know they don't want to play us."

I seriously doubt any Spur or Rocket would fess up to that.

The Rockets have won two of three meetings with the Mavs this season, including holding off a Barea-fueled comeback attempt in Houston last month. The Rockets will end the regular season in Dallas in a game that will likely determine playoff seeds.

The Spurs and Mavs split the season series.

Give the Mavs this: For a team sitting in the eighth spot, they sure have a lot of swagger.

[koriwhat]

fuck those pussies in dallas especially that little troll looking pg!

[Xylus]

If the Mavs stay ahead of the Suns, they'd better shoot for that 7th seed. The Spurs and Rockets are going to have a tougher time with Dallas than, say, the Lakers.

[Shank]

Ice up those knees and lube up your assholes, you geriatric motherfuckers!!

(Can be directed at either the Mavs or the Spurs, actually.)

[Allanon]

What is it with bench guys trying to goad other teams on? Hahah, if the Mavs end up losing to the Spurs, Barea's probably gonna get a beatdown from Dirk.

or go back to being a cab driver.

[2Cleva]

Dirk ain't tough enough to beat down Barea.

Stackhouse will whoop his ass though.

[lurker]

JJ is forgetting that the Spurs players actually laughed and were relieved when the Kidd mistake was made, and for good reason. Parker makes Kidd his personal whore.

bulletin board material is overrated. Spurs and Rockets both want to advance and JJB isnt going to make them play any harder. Lakers series would be a sweep, Rockets or Spurs would be a 6 game series

hmmm i can understand the Spurs but are you really that confident the Rockets can beat the Mavs in a series. you guys havent made it past round 1 since the dinosaurs roamed the earth.

yeah you guys are the #2 seed but only by 3 games:lol i'll be honest, despite my thread i honestly want no part of the Lakers, but im not scared of any other team. the West is so even its not even funny

[crc21209]

Please. This guy is nuts. A guy who's team is hanging on to the 8 seed and he's going to open up his mouth and talk shit?

You're right, we don't want any part of the #2 PG in the league:downspin:

[BUMP]

Please. This guy is nuts. A guy who's team is hanging on to the 8 seed and he's going to open up his mouth and talk shit?

"hanging on to the 8 seed?":lol

we won by 20 last night, and we are just as close to the #3 seed as the #9.

[djohn2oo8]

:lol:lol:lol....Mavs beat GOLDEN STATE!!!

[dirk4mvp]

I would LOVE, LOVE, LOVE to play the Mavs in the first round. You know how the Mavs play in the playoffs. HAHA! Who is JJ Barea anyway?:lmao

Do you ever get tired of being a faggot?

[BUMP]

hell, why would Spur fans be all that confident in a series against Dallas?

[BUMP]

hell, why should Spur fans be all that confident in a series against Dallas?

[BUMP]

[BUMP]

wtf? lol

[djohn2oo8]

JJ Barea might just be the dumbass of the year

[BUMP]

and the 05-06 Mavs were favored against San Antonio??

[j.dizzle]

i doubt dallas would win that series but it would go 6 games atleast. If Dirk, Terry, & Howard all shot like 60% from the field, then they would maybe have a chance :lol. but Dallas does match up pretty well with SA

[BUMP]

we'll see. i remember back then Spur fans laughed hysterically at any chance of Dallas beating them

[SpursDynasty]

That kind of statement wouldn't look so ridiculous coming from Jerry Stackhouse, or Dirk, or even Howard or Terry, but from some 5'10" bench player who wasn't on the Mavs the last time they gave us problems, that's a laugh.

First Ryan Hollins says they're going to catch the Lakers off guard, now JJ Barea says the Rockets and Spurs are afraid of them. Double fail.

[Morg1411]

I think it would be a good series. I also think that SA would ultimately take it.

[mavs>spurs2]

you're also 5'10 and laughable

[j.dizzle]

SD is 5'6 & asian

[j.dizzle]

haha jus playin SD. but you do have a good point. Why the hell are these no name players all of a sudden coming out with these stupid quotes. If Dirk isnt saying anything, then these fools should keep quiet too.

[mavs>spurs2]

Good one...I know you are but what am I?

do you ever get tired of being a faggot? is it a tough job? long hours, butthole in constant pain, etc

[senorglory]

^ Is it possible to discuss sports, without getting all homoerotic?

[sprrs]

The Mavs are still a horrible matchup for the Spurs, even with out Harris. At the absolute least, it would be a tough out for the Spurs, something they'd want to avoid. They wanna be as fresh as possible for the Lakers.

[SpursDynasty]

Nothing personal against JJ Barea. And I don't understand people getting personal in this thread or making homophobe remarks to each other.

I simply stated that a guy Barea's size has no place talking in this league. Nothing personal against Barea, it's not his fault that he is 5'10" and a bench player.

[mavs>spurs2]

^ Is it possible to discuss sports, without getting all homoerotic?

Sure, after you kill yourself we'll all go back to discussing sports

[BUMP]

I think it would be a good series. I also think that SA would ultimately take it.

i agree. really it comes down to the fact that we have nobody who can guard Parker or Duncan whatsoever. and on our side we just have Dirk while everyone else can be guarded. our only chance is that by doubling Dirk, other guys will be able to spot up, and if we can light it up i think we'd have a chance.

i like our chances vs Portland, Denver, (even tho we're 0-3 against them i dont give a shit) Houston and Utah if we had homecourt

LA, San Antonio, New Orleans? not so much

so if the team with the better record always wins than u admit that you guys wont beat LA right?

[Spursfan092120]

so if the team with the better record always wins than u admit that you guys wont beat LA right?
lol..nope...I also threw in there the whole "choking" deal. And I never said anything about records. I said we were a better team. The word "record" never came out of my mouth.

the "choking" team managed to knock you guys out of the playoffs last time we met. what makes you think we cant do it again?

[djohn2oo8]

I would have to give Barea credit if he said this about the #1 SEED lakers, but he has a severe case of pussitis:depressed

First quote...because you had Devin Harris back then.
Second quote..you said yourself you didn't like Dallas' chances against the Spurs..now you're arguing it?

[Brazil]

I admit it I'm not a big fan of the first round against mavs idea.

[BUMP]

thats not what im saying.

if i had to pick one team or the other i'd pick San Antonio. i just cant see why some Spur fans think its gonna be such an easy series when Dallas has already shown they can knock them off

[djohn2oo8]

The point is that you don't say stuff like that around this time of the year, and especially during the stretch run where they might miss the playoffs

[The Franchise]

Dallas is a good team but not what they were. Were we to play them this year in the playoffs I would be very confident that we would win that series. Barea talking shit will only help our players stay focused.

[djohn2oo8]

Right now, everyone in the league is like "JJ who?"

[Ghazi]

Good for Barea and good for Hollins. We're not gonna lose a series because of anything our guys say, we will lose if we get outplayed by a better team. "BUlletin board" material as mentioned is a media myth. This isn't college football, this is NBA basketball.

[Ghazi]

We're not missing the playoffs, get it through your thick skull.

[sook]

I hope we play Dallas. The only teams we want to avoid are Utah and Denver. I know what people say about Denver, but they are wrong...trust me you do NOT want to play them.

Mavs and Suns (if they make it) would be the best case

[z0sa]

jj biarrea is the stupidest motherfucker on the planet obviously.

[djohn2oo8]

Yeah, rox should avoid utah in first round, but Denver has NO answer for Yao....Portland looks tired, so they might be a favorable matchup. Mavs are a favorable matchup for everyone, but if suns get in, they will be dangerous.

[sook]

Dude Denver WILL beat us in a 7 game series seriously i don't know whats so hard to understand about that. Billups is capable of anything in the playoffs and they have one of the most potent scorers in the game, Melo. Did you remember the last game we squeaked out? Yea we are 3-1 with them but that is extremely MISLEADING. JR Smith getting hot would be the end of us in any game. Trust me, i was saying this about the Jazz in 07 too and people didn't believe me. Denver has ALOT of way to take Yao out of his game, Birdman + Nene are more than capable defenders

[MI21]

The Mavericks would be a horrible first up series for the Spurs, especially while they are integrating Ginobili and Gooden into the mix. That affects Mason, Bonner and Hill heavily, so basically there is 5 players who are getting used to new roles on the team.

Dirk is always a horrible matchup for the Spurs, Terry shoots well against them and Josh Howard suddenly turns into Larry Bird against the Spurs and makes jumpshots like they are layups.

I still think the Spurs would win, but it would be a minimum 6 game series, and it's certainly possibly that Dallas could cause an upset.

[mavs>spurs2]

The whole piling it on the Mavs thing has gone way overboard. The West is so even right now, were capable of beating anyone not named the lakers. Not saying we will, but it's a possibility. No one should be that upset by anything JJ Barrea says anyway, as he will have little influence on the outcome of a series.

[Mr.ChugDynasty]

jj biarrea is the stupidest motherfucker on the planet obviously.

:lmao can't even spell his name right even though it's in the title...

The mavs are a terrible match-up for the spurs, every spurs fan should know this, and dallas might not win that series but the spurs absolutely do NOT want to face the lakers after going to 6 or 7 games with the mavs. Their chance of winning would drop drastically

[Rogue]

Yeah, rox should avoid utah in first round, but Denver has NO answer for Yao....Portland looks tired, so they might be a favorable matchup. Mavs are a favorable matchup for everyone, but if suns get in, they will be dangerous.
rockets won't go any further than the first round with those idiotic fans like you. Rockets fans used to be the best on this board, as timvp commented in a post yesterday, but it has changed alot since yao and millions of his ass-kissers joined our league. Tell us how yao's ass taste, djohn.

[Indazone]

Just like last year when everyone wanted to play the Yaoless Rockets, this year everyone wants to play the wussfied Mavricks.

I have to agree our boys in blue didn't play well in the playoffs of the past two seasons, and I have nothing against the rockets team which I think will play very great in the postseason this year. our boys in blue are soft but not shitty like you and the land you are from.
