Rockets Sign Brent Barry

[Sigz]

He will still be a fan favorite... even as a Rocket.

No love lost here Brent.

[MagnusKrauss]

Bye Brent. The motion offense just won't be the same without you.

this would have been a great move by the Spurs FO if Brent went to Houston and then retired before even playing a game.

That would be classic.

[ChumpDumper]

Neither will happen so either trade Manu or learn to live with him the way he is.

I already have.

Coming off the bench at reduced minutes.

[spursjustice]

That really does suck He really stepped up during the Spurs/Laker series and showed why he's still a vital part of a team... sucks that he has to end up with a div rival...
Nonetheless, I hope Brent does well for the Roxs...

[smeagol]

I already have.

Coming off the bench at reduced minutes.

As long as he is on the floor in the 4th Q . . .

[smeagol]

Wow . . . I recall a time when nobody could stand Barry except whottt and one other poster.

[timvp]

Wow . . . I recall a time when nobody could stand Barry except whottt and one other poster.

I can recall a time when every thread didn't turn into a Manu thread.

Oh wait, no I can't. Not since 2002.

[NewJerSpur]

Good luck to Brent, and I'm happy he gets to at least stay in Texas which seems to be where his family is most comfortable....even though he won't win (no offense to my Rocket bretheren, but injuries add up). He's done great things in SA and had a big role in the last few championship runs. Hope he can stay healthy and that he plays like against the Spurs.

[exstatic]

True, get younger.

Get rid of Finley too.

+1 BILLION

I still want the rotting corpse of Michael Finley shoved off the stern of the SS Spurs.

Thank you, Mango tree.

Like this is some revelation.

Thank you, Mango tree.

If they didn't bring Brent back, I can't see them re-signing Fin Dog....okay maybe I can, but I don't know that I'd agree with it.

[SPURSGOAT]

Bye Barry you will be missed! I am sure he will try to lite up the Spurs whenever we play ther Rockets...

I know this sux! It had to be done though; it is all part of getting younger. If he was not gone this season he would have been gone next season. I miss him, but I will be over it in the morning. Now the rooks including Ian will need to step up...Pop and RC must have high hopes about the rooks

[rascal]

Not a bad move. Barry is like an old car that is starting to break down. The spurs need to overhaul the backups and get younger. Finley and Horry also must go.

[NewJerSpur]

Horry might still have some bullets left in the chamber (3-point bullets in particular) and he definitely still has a high b-ball IQ.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

What a shame! We looked best at times when he was on the court.

if they bring back Finley who is DONE and was since January.

Thanks for everything, Mango Tree, you were a fantastic Spur and will always be one of my favourites.

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

I just want a coach who's smart enough to recognize that when a player is injured, he should be on the bench (Manu), and when a player is shooting the lights out he should stay on the floor (Barry).

A bonus would be if he's smart enough to put in a good rebounder (Thomas) in a game where we're getting raped on the boards.

Trade Pop.

So any ideas for another coach?

[bdictjames]

Barry in a Rockets uniform?

Heartbreaking.

[Spuradicator]

So we keep Finley over Barry. WTF!

This really pisses me off.

[angelbelow]

thanks brent... you will be missed...

[SPURSGOAT]

Trade Pop.

trade one of the top two coaches in the league!?

[SPURSGOAT]

Spurs' fan should be a little logical on that.
During the whole year most of us have said loudly "Spurs need to go younger". We can't really complain when Spurs let go a 36 years old Barry and sign a 27 years old player with Mason.

I liked Barry on and off the court but you can't get younger if you keep all of your old players.

QFT!

[urunobili]

Very sad. He could've helped us a lot next year.

why don;t you start crying now?

[wildbill2u]

Wow . . . I recall a time when nobody could stand Barry except whottt and one other poster.

I don't think you're talking about me, but I always thought Barry was going to be a great acquisition so maybe there were more than just two Barry fans.

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

why don;t you start crying now?

How mature of you.
