    Harrison was huge in a big game tonight. 24pts 7Rbs. led a big 9-2 run that pushed the lead to 15. Not saying it was a mistake but I wish we had this kid!

    Pretty easy to guess who would bump it as well. I'd still rather have 6 players ahead of Barnes from that draft class.

    Didn't watch last night's game, but in the 3 I did watch Barnes looked awful.

    This message board would roast Barnes if he was a Blazer, for being inconsistent. Sure I would take him on our team in a second, but the question about him when he was drafted is still a question. Can he create his own shot on a consistent basis, or is he more of a role player? Not sure if he is a better overall player than Nic. Certainly not Dame.

    I am certain that Nic is a much better player, overall.

    But, would you do a swap? They're trying to get rid of David Lee and his contract, something like...

    http://espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=oe4u2jy
    with a 1st rounder thrown in by GS?

    They'll be in heavy tax area when they resign their dudes, and they can cut Kaman immediately for around $5 mil in cap savings.

    Ugh, I dunno. I don't really like the trade - but perhaps Barnes and Ezeli could be flipped in another trade. Lee is a decent stop-gap PF - if the trade meant that we'd FOR SURE not sign LMA then I'd do it. But they'd have to give us at least one FUTURE unprotected draft pick - I'd ask for one a few years down the line hoping that they slide back to sucksville when we're owed the pick.

    I'd much rather have Livingston.

    Barnes works fine for them. He's a solid enough Ariza-type. But basically he's Wes, only not quite as good at... everything.

    Offensively GS played way better when Livingston was in there with Steph. After game one Klay did very little on O. He played good D but Cleveland smothered him. I always like a two PG lineup, if one of the PG's can guard a 2.
