Barea Will Start - Dallas-Mavs.com Forums

Just wanted to be first to say it.

Seriously though, doesn't Carlisle at least have to consider starting him at SG with Kidd as long as Wright and Howard are out?

IMO, as long as JJB is the only guard that can or will get into the lane and break down defenses, yes, let him start, but not with Kidd but rather with JT. We need to be able to score early in the game, and JT is on fire. This business of always having to make a mad scramble out of a hole is not going to cut it, long term.

^ We're one of the best 1st quarter teams in the league.

The only examples of what you've mentioned so far this year are the Pacers and Clippers games.

Thespiralgoeson · 12-03-2008, 05:16 AM

I'm still on the Gerald Green bandwagon. Green should keep starting, and should be our primary shooting guard IMO. Of all the "young" players we have, I really think Green is the only one with any real future in the NBA.

dmack24 · 12-03-2008, 11:23 AM

IMO Green and Singleton and Wright are not point scorers. Barea has proven time and time again that he can answer the call. Im kinda surprised we dont start him over kidd; kidd has not produced crap since arriving here. Barea can give you as much production in half the minutes kidd plays imagine if he were starting.

I'm one of the biggest JJ Burrito homers around outside of Puerto Rico, but really? Don't be ridiculous.

Did you watch Kidd even play yesterday? He could not even hit a basket if the rim were as big and wide as the ocean. Barea produces as many points as kidd does in half the time; look yourself. All Kidd has is defense and that is not enough anymore to warrant starting him. Wow big deal he played 32 minutes against the clips; had zero points and 4 steals; wow is that really what you want in your starting pg?

Want to take back your statement that Barrea cannot score more effectively than wright or green?

Kidd is looking like he playing with a lack of effort sometimes though. I hope Barea showing him up fires him up a little. I want to see Kidd with with a little more passion.

SMC0007 · 12-03-2008, 11:41 AM

hahaa. wut. Awesome thread.

Green will be much better when JHo is back in the starting lineup too!

Did someone leave their webcam on when they posted?

LSMF · 12-03-2008, 12:30 PM

Wow I just looked at the tags and I saw "Delusions of grandeur" lol, I just learned about that earlier this morning in Psychology class lol

LonghornDub · 12-03-2008, 12:43 PM

Barea needs to keep coming off the bench. He's provided a very nice spark for us.

DirkFTW · 12-03-2008, 02:11 PM

If only we had 5 Bareas...

DMack is just expressing what I've been noticing. The team loses energy with Barea out of the game. Kidd is not currently bringing that energy for whatever reason.

You clearly have a brain and know about the game of basketball. If you watch the game again; most of the runs from the Spurs came when Barrea was not in the game. When Barrea came back our play and scoring became more productive. I cant wait to see what our lineup will look like when we get Jhow back. Barrea reminds me more of pistol pete than anyone else.

1) Kidd
2)Barrea
3)Jhow
4)Dirk
5) Damp that could be a lineup hard to stop

You don't have to be an energizer bunny to be a leader.

That energizer bunny the last 4 games except for the last one has pretty much been the only back court guard to really penetrate to create offense. Allot of Terry and Kidds offense are created from Barrea attacking the rim. If you do not believe me get a DVR and watch the games again.

Who the bloody hell is Allot of Terry. *insert British accent

Once again, I'm going to repeat myself. The fact that you're an energizer bunny does not mean that you are a leader.

Do you think JJB is the leader of this team? If you do, then you're an idiot.

If you don't then shut up.

JJB is better than PB&J; I rest my case and my tired head.

vashjan · 12-03-2008, 02:27 PM

Barea needs to come off the bench with Jet and Singleton, Diop & Bass..very good second unit..keep defensive pressure and some scoring..

DirkFTW · 12-03-2008, 02:56 PM

JJB does not rest his case... he Devin Harrises it.

nikeball · 12-03-2008, 03:02 PM

Devin Harris is the best basketball player in the world. I rest my case.

GMFFDHT · 12-03-2008, 04:41 PM

Come on. Stop all that bullshit arguing and be happy we finally found a way to use JJB. He's our most aggressive player in regards of attacking the rim. If he finds a way to a better shot selection and learns to pass when there are 3 shot blockers (twice his size) in front of him...then he will be a real good player. And I will be happy for him. He's not a starter.

Im not happy because I finally found out how good Barrea is and once Jhow comes back alongside Wright he will see virtually no PT. Kidd will continue to not put up points and Wright will only be good for up to 10 a night. I just know the reality that is coming. I am glad for now skeptical for the future.

When Jhow and Wright get back and we stop playing Barrea; and we start losing again; dont let me say I told you so.

My question to all.

You honestly believe Kidd is a better offensive threat than Barrea?

particleman · 12-03-2008, 05:54 PM

Come on dmack... This is a flame... Right? Please? Just admit it and we'll move on...
