Brent's leadership and experience, Wafer's athleticim and Head's (can't list a skill that he's better than Brent or Wafer) Use Wafer a lot and save Brent Barry for the later part of the season and playoffs like we were supposed to.
I pretty much agree. When we are playing well we can have Barry out there to knock down some 3s. When we get no energy we can pout Von into the game. The important thing is he can create for himself, Barry cannot.
When it comes down to it, Head and Von have shot better this season. Barry has a shooter's past but this year he has shown why SA passed on resigning him. I like his leadership on the court and court savy, but that doesn't always translate to points on the board 33 and 29 is Rafer like on a bad year. 2008-09 Head - 41 FG% / 38.5 3PT% / 1.6AST / 5.3PPG Von - 39 FG% / 36.4 3PT% / 0.7AST / 4.6PPG Barry - 33 FG% / 29 3PT% / 1.2AST / 3.1PPG Between the 3 - I gave my node to Head -As long as it's not a playoff game.
I say Wafer and Brent, depending on matchups and needs on the offense. There's some nights where utilizing Wafers athleticism to punish weak defenders could be a huge advantage. Then again, Barry is smarter at this point in his career and is normally money from long range. I think it all comes down to scenerios. I'd like to see both over the regular season, but more Brent come playoff time.
With that being said, I would like to keep, both Barry and Von. Tie. They're exactly what we need, both can punish teams in different ways...Barry by passing and shooting, Von by athletic ability, aggressiveness, and off the dribble... Luther by....................by...........ummmmm......hmmmmmm.....ummmmm....ummm...somebody help me.
Agreed. Having Barry in the rotation will hopefully pay dividends as the season progresses and each game gets more important. Wafer reminds me a lot of J.R. Smith. Wafer's quick scoring/athleticism stick out the same way. You can tell he has game the same way I could always tell Smith did. Hopefully, we stumbled upon a steal here. He definitely has upside which is more than you can say about Luther.
Don't judge Barry only from the start of this season. The guy really wasn't healthly. He had problems with thumb and than with calf. Of course he is not the same as he once was. but i belive he still can shoot very well. Now when he is finally healthly (as the entire team is) Brent is worth of giving him a shot. I am sure he will play better. It's like McGrady. He has been playing really well since comming back from the injury. But still, he is scoring only over 16 a game. Why? Because he wasn't himself at the beggining of the season.
I can't believe Barry is beating out Head by so much... I swear to god, the hate for Head astounds me. Head is better than Barry in absolutely every single way right now.
