    If this forum is any indication, he didn't fool many. There were only 2-3 guys here who drank the Kool-aid. The rest of us saw Barnes for the limited player he is.

    Not going to overreact to a single preseason game. I hope he fails though.

    Dude is not that good. I was cringing when some Rocket fans wanted to throw the max at this guy. He is not a #2 option. At best a #3 but more likely just a solid role player, not worthy of a max

    I think most knew he wasn't going to be a star after his first couple of years.

    Barnes looks more like Rudy Gay to me. Great tools, and his physical gifts easily fool most basketball eyes, but ultimately, poor ball handling and poor awareness in traffic will hold him back.

    Friend of mine from Dallas bet me Barnes would average at least 3 more PPG than Ryan Anderson this year.

    I took it and ran.

    When parson is healthy he can give you 17-18 points on upper 50s TS%. In today's NBA that is a max contract.

    Well, you might be in trouble when Dirk walks out on this team and retires halfway through the season and Barnes starts chucking 23+ shots a game!

    I am willing to sacrifice some money if it means witnessing the comedy of Harrison Barnes 20+ shots a night!

    Someone tell Barnes the NBA Final is over and he doesn't have to go for 1 for 10 every night like he did in the NBA Finals?

    If you include the last 4 games including the finals, he's 6/52
