JJ Barea sucks *** thread - Dallas-Mavs.com Forums

I don't think it's anything personal against JJB for most of the folks here. He's an undersized guy who's making the best of his limited skill set, and probably outplaying his contract. I get that. It's just that he doesn't fit as the backup PG on this team. I'd say it's our biggest weakness. Not his fault, but he is killing us out there...

Agreed. He seems like a nice guy. Just very limited skill wise. His main talent is shooting and has so many vulnerabilities. It's a joke they are complaining about Beaubois's mistakes when Barea is even worse.

I think it has turned personal. And if I got the sense that what you said, that it isn't personal, was the case with most people most of the time, I don't wouldn't have to pitch in, because I agree with that, and I think his minutes might have been too many (we've seen them being scaled back quite a bit as of late). But it has turned from a "what's best for the team" thing" into a "barea sucks at life" pile-it-on party.
