Happy for Barnes

Post by bleedspeed177 [enjin:6603232] »

Good to see he has gotten off to a hot start with Mavs. I thought he got overpaid and he never lived up to his ranking going in to college, but he seems to be putting it together with the Mavs. (at least for now)

It will be interesting to see things play out with him. He landed in a pretty good situation a good organization a great coach and a team that needs him to do well but does have some other pieces. It doesn't hurt he has Bogut there with him either. It's just really different playing as a complimentary player to one that's one of the top options. Some guys don't do well adjusting to being a lesser player. Some guys did both in their careers. What vince Carter did to stay around the game all this time is kinda amazing and the fact that he wanted to be a bench guy doing what he is doing is something after being some sort of superstar type guy at one point years ago.

Thanks for posting my Dad's family moved to Ames in the early 60's. A little bit has changed since then. Their back yard was a cornfield back then.
