Brent >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Jon
Since the offseason is soon upon us I thought I'd make a thread to appreciate the talent that is Jon Barry.
Having played for 9 teams in his career (never lasting more than 3 seasons ANYWHERE) Barry put up Hall-of-Fame numbers. Averaging a whopping 5.7 points/game on 43% shooting, he was thought to be the next coming of Jeff Hornacek. 2.2 Assists and 1.9 Rebounds per game were nothing to sneeze at either. Wikipedia even has trouble classifying his greatness
Some say his durability was his greatest attribute. Barry was so reliable he played in all 82 games once in his illustrious 13 year career. Obviously that kind of toughness and for ude is something every team seeks. That's why Barry started, in 13 years mind you, a total of 36 games. Teams loved him. Fans loved him. The next logical step was to go to the booth and give his unquestioned opinion on the game he loves so.
That's where our story picks up. Listening to him talk about the Suns and how he wanted them to win made me nostalgic for a good ole fashioned appreciation thread. "You wanted the Suns, but I bet even YOU didn't expect them to be up 3-0". Well put Wilbon. Maybe he can give us more insight on how much better of a Point Guard Steve Nash is than Tony Parker. After all, Parker could never make that pass.
So leave your appreciative comments below!
Oh yeah, he's bald too.
Brent >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Jon
Jon's always hated on the Spurs, even (and maybe especially) when Brent played for us. Ring envy of bro and dad, I suppose. Tres anillos, puta.
He's jelous 'cause his dad loves his brother more.
I forgot! Jon is also without championships.
He's also without an ''h'' in his name.
He's not even liked by his fellow sportscasters. Probably the worst announcer around and I haven't listened to him in the past couple of months:
Jon is jealous that Brent has a championship ring, a hot wife, a sense of humor, and is a way cooler dude.....
He has definitely hated the Spurs for years, and he's just a horrible "analyst" overall, just like most of the other former NBA guys..especially guys on ESPN..
No doubt, Erin was the best.Jon is jealous that Brent has a championship ring, a hot wife, a sense of humor, and is a way cooler dude.....
this guy is a complete tool.
jon barry.....he hates the spurs and his brother ....what is there to appreciate in this tool...
Exactly....and how could his father not like his champion, likable, and funny son better than his loser, head personality, and extremely bitter son?
Barry iz uh greaaaate analyst . . . .
FOR ME TO POOP ON!
Sarcasm detection fail. Go back and re-read the first post again.
i did not read the whole post...i just read the le
lmaoooooo they punked him bad he was ready to cry
Who?
Erin Barry is smoking hot
One of his greatest plays ever.
His dad hates Pop
Jon hates the Spurs for some unknown reason.
Brent didn't end on the best of terms with Pop
I've always thought JB's negativity on the Spurs came from the jealous of his brother Brent, but I guess after Brent retired, things still haven't changed.
I personally don't care about his opinion that much about his view on the Spurs since he's a paid NBA analyst, but you can easily tell his bias from the pre-game show before the Cavs/Celtics game.
I pretty much hate all analysts anyways.
He's a , I'd rather listen to the Suns broadcast team. At least their homerism for the Suns and hate for the Spurs makes sense. Barry just sounds butthurt.
