Whott,
For the third time, I'm not saying that Brown is the answer to Barry's problems. In fact, with all my ing, I'm not really offering a solution. I think Barry has been weak thus far this season and he's a major concern going into the playoffs. I really, really expected more from this guy. I thought he was the perfect signing. At this point, Gregg Popovich has to be at least slightly concerned with the outside shooting.
It wouldn't surprise me if we added a shooter.
^^^^
Great post Walton (hey walton were getting along too well, wtf is wrong lmao)
Thats exactly how I feel.
I dont have an answer, i dont have a solution, I just wish he was shooting better.
I agree, he shouldv'e been in the end maybe.
I dont know. We can monday morning quarterback it all we want but oh well.
Could you next time use a calculator to divide 8 by 12?
He's just not hitting 40% from 3 point range...that's the only thing he is not doing. But when you look at other aspects of the game...he is the best on the team at those things...A to TO...TO per game...per 48...FT shooting.
His crime is hitting 36% from 3...an above average PCT for just about anyone not named Brent Barry...even struggling from 3(for him) he's still been clutch though.
The thing is...he was more of an initiator in Seattle...he was a featured offensive player and has a nails midrange J that we never use...maybe since he doesn't get that part of his game going he's psyching himself out too much to hit his spot up threes...
Maybe it is too easy.
He's just not used to standing around out there waiting to hit open threes...this guy has major ing game and smarts...as a 10 year vet I don't see him as a problem yet, I think he's a huge reason we are off to best start in team history, and I think he will come through when it matters....because he came here to do that...Hedo didn't want that. They are not the same player.
My bad 66%.....so you've proved what exactly?
Do you consider that good? Do you consider that as doing better than the rest of the NBA does against him?
What have you proved? What is your point other that national defensiveness?
Oh and here's a big fat RASHO CHOKED LIKE A MOTHER ER TODAY for you to suck on for being anal and getting off the subject.
I've only proved you're bad in maths. Taht's all.
So it was Rasho's fault we lost WHottt.
No I pretty much think the whole team sucked today except for Parker and Manu and even they were shaky on D.
But since people like to point fingers...
LOL ok...maybe you are right, but that doesn't change the fact that the Spurs did a bad job against Shaq today...even by Shaq standards.
I don't think anyone pointed the finger at anyone today whottt.
Your the only one thinking people are.
That's the problem TPark. That's always been the problem.
sigh.
God your such a child.
sigh, your such an adult TPark.
Look, if you bother to read you will see I destroyed Walton's and yours criticisms of Barry with statistical fact.
He's not shooting that badly...and he usually brings other things even when he does shoot badly.
Do you really think Barry is living up to the expectations Pop and RC had when they brought him here?
Yeah, I do..not only that but I think he's been the 4th or maybe 5th best player on the team this season and is a big reason for our best ever start.
I think he's having a substandard season only when held to his own standard of shooting PCT's...compared to anyone elses' standards he is a having a fine season.
if you bother to read you will see I destroyed Walton's and yours criticisms of Barry with statistical fact.
I read, I disagreed.
A guy should be shooting, with Tim Duncan in the post better than 36%.
I laugh at all you jackasses who keep blaming Barry for everything. I want you to go back and look at all the spurs losses. What is it 12?...if you take 9 of those games, and average Barry's minutes in those loses it comes out to like 12 minutes per game. So you know what?! Why don't you try blaming Pop for once!!! When Barry doesn't play, the Spurs lose! You know why? Because it isn't all about scoring...The has never averaged more than 10 points a game, but he is great for the flow of the offense and moving the ball, and getting the ball to the right man in the right spot for the right shot. Sean Elliott has been talking about it all year. He is a point guard for the last two years, and should be getting minutes at point guard this year but Pops ridiculous rotation...It has no rhyme or reason..there was no reason for DBrown to get as many minutes as he did today, and there was no reason why Barry shouldn't have gotten any minutes. One mistake, or one missed shot gets so magnified in this room because in all of these losses, he plays like 10 minutes! Udrih today had at least 4 horrible plays, turn overs, bad passes etc....Get off the Barry bashing, its getting so old, and it doesn't hold any water if you are a real fan of the game...its not about points and him going 4 for 5 from the 3pt line every game...jesus. If you take the games that he has played 25 to 30 minutes, he is right around his career average of 10pts 5 assists...And wow, thats not to bad from a 6th man now is it???!!!! Now try and post something thats has some sort of original thought for once Walton... you make the real one sound like a genius.
sum of you are trolls, one day you praise barry the next you bag the out of him, make up ur minds
Hmmmmm, while we're throwing around all these stats and numbers, anyone have a break down of Brent Barry's fg% by quarters (over the season)? Like what he shoots in the first quarter compared to the fourth? Three point, free throw and/or adjusted fg% would be good too. I'm just curious as to how his percentages break down.
whott is the man at putting ppl down
someone is gonna end up in tears.
I agree with you T Park, but he rarely plays with TD in the post. Thats the whole problem. Pop brings him here, he plays with Beno, Devin, Malik and Horry....If he got to play with TD more often, I'm sure his numbers would be up.
I agree that Barry doesn't seem to be living up to expectations but it's true that if you look at the numbers, the Spurs win games more often than not when Barry plays extended minutes.
That being said, a big problem is that Pop yanks Barry early and often when he doesn't produce immediately. Yes, he was 1/4 when he got yanked but that isn't so horrible and I feel he should have been given minutes in the second half. That one shot he hit was a 3 when we really needed it btw.
Pop has him on a really short leash. Too short imo. Again, for the most part this season, when Barry has been given the minutes, he's produced.
Walton, why don't you go jump off a bridge, you are the most negative whiney I have ever seen...you are obviously in severe depression, and need to just put yourself out of your miserable existence.
If Brown is expecting a big contract, he can go elsewhere. I would really like to see the Spurs keep him, but he should not tie up much salary cap. This is one dude that never met a shot he didn't like and NEVER met a pass.
