so after TP vs Manu war, here is the Finley vs Barry battle...
this cannot be a serious thread...finley is better than 5 ing brent barry's. when the stakes are high, barry dirks big time. some can handle the pressure and some can't. barry can't. finley brings it when he's on the court and doesn't play scared. how many airballs did the 3 point specialist barry throw up last night...he was dirking big time.
1) Finley is a better rebounder than Barry
2) Finley is a vastly superior defender than Barry
3) Finley is shooting something like 47% from 3 point land in the playoffs this postseason
4) Finley is more consistent than Barry
Yes, Barry knows how to pass better than Finley, but Barry's passing ability is highly overrated at times by Spurs fans. He'll have maybe one or two really great assists in a game, but other than that his passing is just a general play within the Spurs system. Also notable is that Barry also makes some disgusting passes as well...see turnover which led to Jazz 3 pointer from a Barry rebound for further proof.
Whott is probably right in that if Barry ever manages to bring is A game, the Spurs would virtually be unbeatable. Problem is, he doesn't do it consistently enough or in big time games to get it done. And please Whott, dont give me stats or random playoff games where Barry showed up...I'm talking about bringing something to the table every night. Barry needs to produce offensively in order to warrant playing time. His defense is that much of a burden to the Spurs. So when his offense isn't working, it doesn't make much sense to play him.
I don't even understand what you're basing your bet on....
maybe he is Barry's cousin
maybe HE IS Barry making a case for himself
Who gives a what whott thinks about Finely's play anyway?
in reading whotts takes on the link, if finley goes 8-9 on 3 pt shots in the next then it aint no pressure because the spurs are up in the series, hence barry should get more minutes
whottt, you've practically revealed yourself to be an ignorant dumbass who argues based on personal whims and opinions rather than by facts and statistics. Yeah, Finley sucks and the Spurs don't need him-screw his 47% three point shooting, his 14 ppg, screw him for not being a liability on defense, screw him for having intensity and heart, and screw him for coming through on the road. Let's reward Barry for missing open three pointers, for playing like a puss on the road, and for getting owned defensively. Makes perfect sense.

Yeah well, you couldn't see what Barry did over Devin in 05 either.
im gonna have to side with whottt on this one
Fin should get what he got during the regular season. Is that "major"? Barry and fin should be getting minutes determined by how well they are playing. If Barry is doing well, he should split the minutes.
If fin's back is hurt, Barry better step up. If he doesn't and Fin can't produce because of injury, we are screwed.
If Fin DOESN"T get the minutes he was getting during the end of the season, it is because of injury. If Fin is in fact significantly injured with his back, and limited in his production, with the caveat that Oberto is also a crucial part of this le run, I don't think Barry can make up the difference and we go down it he playoffs.
Fin has been more important to this team's success since the all-star break than Barry can hope to make up for.
What a stupid thread. Sorry, but this is freaking idiotic. Fin has been doing a good job overall. I think his back was sore yesterday. Give him a damn break! Fin wants this championship as bad as anyone, and when he's hitting late shots tomorrow and in Game 5, you'll be back on tip.
Exactly. Whottt, that is pretty bad. What a disgrace.
Hilarious!
I'm gonna have to use that now. When you "dirk", you choke. A term which will move to the forefront of my sports vocabulary.
"Dirk" It's a verb!Hilarious!

Lots of choker lovers in this thread....
Brent Barry is so much more of a superior offensive player than Finley it's not even funny.
And I completely and thoroughly question the basketball IQ of any one that disagrees with that statement.
Brent Barry played about 1 less minute per game than Finley this season he scored a half a point less...
But he took 3 ing fewer shots per game to get it.
Finley had the lowest PPS on the team this season out of the regular rotation...Barry lead the team in it.
He also lead the team in adjusted FG% with a staggering total.
He gets more assists, he gets to the FT line more.
He shot better from ing 3 than Finley shot from 2.
That's ing sick.
What happened at the end of the season...
Did Barry start sucking...or did he get hurt?
His minutes got cut by 10 per game because he got injured and ing Finley got back into the rotation justi n time to choke us in the playoffs.
What happened in 05?
Hmm...
And how does Finley play in 10 mins a game anyway? He sucks worse than Barry...as evidencd by this season.
He'll choke us in the playoffs...
And it will happen.
Just remember...when Finley is taking those shots and they aren't going in...and don't even ing act like Barry goes 1-6 from 3 every game. That's probably his record as a Spur. That's a typical first 7 shots for Finley.
Remember that as those 3 extra shots turn into rebounds for the Jazz........and Pistons.....or Cavs.
This board gets the funniest threads after a loss.
I like Barry more than Fin, but when it comes down to it Fin is playing a much better postseason and frankly we need his offense.
White People suck. Bottom line. Let the brother play.
Whattt the are you talking about, Whottt???
Finley is one of the reasons why we beat Phoenix...Barry has sucked ass thus far in the playoffs....you are daft.
whott your sister or daughter better be ready for the nice rape she is about to recieve
I hope you all get injured.
Did you just dedicate 500 words talking about the regular season?
Since when do regular season numbers matter to the Spurs?
And you whining about losing a spot due to injury is classic since that's how Barry got any playing time in '05.
So basically whottt has spent his time in the playoffs defending Barry, Vaughn and Elson. Perhaps if you would stop making excuses for that trio, one of them might actually earn their roster spot.
whottt is funny when he's stoned.
Worst ing thread of all goddamn time.
Finley has been the reason this team has gotten this friggen far, and Whottt has the stupidity to demand Brent Barry get more time?
Are you ing kidding me?!?
