The plot thickens.
Just heard it mentioned.
The plot thickens.
Yeah it's been in a thread or two already
It's a footnote in the Bulls, Cleveland, Seattle trade
Link: "In order to complete the trade, the Sonics waived Brent Barry to make the necessary roster spots available. Barry was acquired yesterday in a trade with the San Antonio Spurs. "
I really, really hope he comes back. It's nice to have a shooter on the bench as an option when all else fails, a la Steve Kerr.
But, I am fine with him signing elsewhere, as long as he doesn't sign with Suns, Mavs, Celtics, Pistons, or Lakers.
Welcome back Barry.
" Please come back Brent "
So why would the league allow this after what happpened with the Mavs and Stackhouse?
If he was waived then anyone could pick him up (i.e., Phoenix, Dallas, etc.). That would suck.
I wonder if he was waived or bought out...
Because unlike Stackhouse, Barry isn't a dumbass who mouthed off about coming back when cut.
I hope he goes back to the Spurs, hopefully it was planned.
Not the Lakers though, please, not them.
True, but does he have to wait 30 days or something like that?
Because Stack ran his mouth before the trade was official, which is a league no-no. Barry, on the other hand, kept his mouth shut.
suns could easily throw a lot of money at Barry, just so he doesn't go back to SA
Because Barry kept his mouth shut. If there was an agreement that Barry would get waived it's been done behind closed doors. And Barry should be smart enough to at least field offers from anyone once he clears waivers.
Brent Barry could easily say it and come back to SA, just so he doesn't have to go out in the first round or put up with Coach Adolf and his 'stache.
The Suns also are in cap with Shaq's 20 million over each of the next 2 years.
Yea because Brent is all about the money, which explains why he turned down larger offers from Golden State and Portland when he signed with us.
If Barry comes back to the Spurs, then CIA Pop is gooey slicky!!
Whoooooooooooooooooooooooo!
I hear he's going to the Suns
This is perfect.
30 days of pure rest at home.
And then he would hopefully join back up with us!
Brent... taking one for the team. What a stud.
You hear voices in your head talking about midgets too. WGAF.
Phoenix is in cap and now they're going to open the wallet for Brent Barry?
The blurb about the trade on the Sonics website says waived. If he was waived, he has to clear waivers before he can sign with anyone. If he was bought out, he should be completely free to sign with anyone except the Spurs immediately.
I don't see them buying him out since it's an expiring contract, so I imagine the waived him and he'll be available to sign for everyone but the Spurs on Saturday, and for the Spurs 28 days later.
Source? Unless you're just talking out of your ass, as usual.
How will the Suns be allowed to throw a lot fo money at him? They are well over the salary cap and I believe they've already used their MLE. Again, I'm no cap expert - so if I'm wrong, please feel free to correct me.
So if he comes back to the Spurs, we can pretty much assume this was all planned out before anything happened?
