    I'm going to a gym fool. I will obviously be in basketball attire. Look for the dread heads. I will come forward.

    Got it, I will be in short shorts, bright purple and white striped tank top, on 80s style roller skates.

    You don't even know how hard I PULL UP.

    Leave the skates, instead whip out the infamous Chuck Tyler's and hop on the court.

    Unlike some people on here I'd rather not debate about basketball on a forum. Especially when idiots on ESPN get paid to do this ****. These fools would sit on here all day and do it for gratis.

    Instead of debating I just lace em up. Then we'll see who knows more about basketball.

    Haha, what the hell is going on in here?? I'm staying out of it, but I will say that in a vacuum, Crashlanded is right.....for this season, Barnes is better than Ariza. He's more athletic, more durable, and probably a better fit for the system we're running. But, that's not saying much. By the end of the year, I have a feeling we're going to be talking about how much both of them suck.

    I'm glad for Barnes. He needed to do this. But let's see if he can motor like this for a week straight. If so, he has the talent. And the drive.

    Yeah bro you right, the competition is nothing like Voss. I like midtown but the court seems too small. I'll have to hit up Voss during the holidays.

    Barnes > Lebron + Harden

    This is a good question. We finally have shooters to surround Harden with. I think I'd rather have Anderson as he is a known shooter and threat. Make no mistake about it, Dallas stayed on Anderson all night. They definitely played him tight to take him out of the game but Harden is just as good in a 4v4 situation.

    However, Barnes is young and developing. For the franchise's best interest I think Barnes would be a great get. His skillset is pretty good for MDA system.

    Rhyno ended with a double double regardless of how tight they played on him. Good question. I don't have a clear answer, I see positives on both sides.

    Barnes is OK at many things but not really good at any one thing or set of things - the numbers bear this out in the past and so far this year.

    Unless he has a shane battier "no stats all star" cohesive effect (which nobody has detected yet) - it doesn't make any sense to tie all of your salary up in him.
