He was in GS! It was to be expected. At least he made some shots for Nelly! He did help get an 8th seed past a (weak) 1st seed.
It's official.One source told ESPN.com that Barnes and the Magic have agreed in principle on a two-year deal for an undisclosed amount that could be announced as early as Tuesday.
F Matt Barnes agrees to 2-year deal with Magic
Well-traveled free-agent forward Matt Barnes has agreed to a two-year contract with the Orlando Magic.
Barnes’ agent, Aaron Goodwin, who also represents Magic All-Star center Dwight Howard, confirmed the deal in an e-mail Monday, but declined to disclose financial terms.
The Magic said they had nothing to announce yet.
The 6-foot-7 Barnes averaged a career-high 10.2 points, 5.5 rebounds and 2.8 assists per game in 77 games last season for the Phoenix Suns. The Magic will be his seventh team in his seven NBA seasons.
Barnes is the latest offseason acquisition for the Eastern Conference champions, who earlier added Vince Carter, power forward Brandon Bass and power forward Ryan Anderson.

He'll do better here than Artest will do in LA. You guys lost a good thing in Ariza. Too bad soo sad..![]()
Good but not scary.. I think a healthy Boston team is much better than a healthy Magic team. Howard is going to have to rebound all those clankers that will going up soon! When VC is doing his goofy motorcycle impression crap, he's going to get beat up the floor.. wait and see.
How did he do the season after that in Golden State face. Don't base a 6 year career off one fluke season.
Exactly. Matt Bricks has become overrated because of his 2007 1st round playoff performance. Bricks is garbage, and he'll be even more garbage on the Magic since they aren't a fastbreak team.
Watchin matt play, I always thought he was a nice player.
Not an impact signing. Orlando is no better or worse.
Marquis Daniels to Boston is an impact signing. They have the best team in the league as is imo. They could win 70 games if everyone stays healthy.
I never said the guy was great, I said he showed some promise (talking about Barnes here). He didn't work out in Phoenix, who knows in Orlando. The Magic aren't a fast break team.. especially now that they let Lee go.
1 fluke season over a 6 year career isn't promise.
Maybe not, but why are you in.. he's out of Phx now.
The guy is 29 years old. If he hasn't by now, he's not going to deliver on that promise.
I'll take Hedo Turkoglu and Courtney Lee ahead of Vince Carter and Matt Barnes any day.
You are probably right.. but then again I didn't think much of Rashard Lewis until he got to Orlando. Even now he's no franchise player.. that's for sure.
man the east teams are lookin scary ... all stacked to the top ...gonna be one big blood bath next year .. cant wait ...
Rashard Lewis had a VERY solid career before signing with Orlando.....pretty sure he was an all star in 2005.
Stick all four in a burlap sack (a real big one), close your eyes, reach in and it wouldn't make a dime's worth of difference which one you pulled out.
Yea, But never worth that contract. Same year peja got his rediculous contract. Twas the summer of overpaying for shooters.
while lewis will thrive as a SF and head to head destroys Pierce on the block, they should have just kept turk o glue
Vince Carter is an upgrade to Hedo in every aspect of basketball. Moving Pietrus into the starting lineup offsets the loss of Lee along with Andersen and Barnes acquisitions.
No he isn't. you must be one of those fans that let himself get caught up with flashyness instead of effectivity. I bet you also think that T-Mac is better than Manu.
Gigantic fail...
DAF means [symbolism over substance].
WHo is the better PNR player. Hedo or VC?
