Barea is always going to look like trash with that unit because the rest of the guys are standing around the perimeter waiting for someone to create something.

ehh successful is too strong of word. Not as bad is probably a better term

They won the NBA Championship, it's not too strong of a word. Plus, moving Barea into the starting lineup changed the series, as Dallas won 3 straight to close it out.

And he's been pretty inefficient in his last three years as a T-Wolf. Fuck JJ.

I watched the replay of the game after I got home last night, and it was especially difficult to watch JJ. I thought that the Houston announcers said that when JJ was taken out of the game in the second half, he went directly to the locker room angrily, but I didn't see any mention of this on the GDT. Did anyone else hear them say this, and what do you think it means? I can't believe Adelman will let him get away with this. If it really happened, I expect to see more Shved backing up Rubio at PG the next two games.

Too easy to scapegoat the guy getting stuck with the ball. Pair him with another ball-handler and actual NBA players and he can help a team in short bursts, just like he did in Dallas.

^^^^^
no chit spot on

the guy is set up to fail playing with a bunch of guys whoever the opponent doesnt even pays attention 2 on the offensive end cause none of em cant score besides barea. all the other team has to do is triple team barea & there goes the bench.
