Brent Barry is the guy we need

[Admin]

I have always liked him. He does everything well. I have wanted him on our team for a long time now and hearing Diesel bring up his name has made me think we should go balls to the wall to get him. Here is an overview of Barry from last year.

TRADE ACCEPTED

Due to Atlanta and Seattle being over the cap, the 15% trade rule is invoked. Atlanta and Seattle had to be no more than 115% plus $100,000 of the salary given out for the trade to be accepted, which did happen here. This trade satisfies the provisions of the Collective Bargaining Agreement.

That leaves us with:

JT/DD/Email

Barry/DJ

Big Dog/Ira(re-signed)

SAR/Hendu

Theo/Nazr/Willis(fa)

I could live with that lineup for sure. DJ would be the first man off the bench for the most part so he would still get 20-25 mpg. Barry is the perfect compliment to our lineup.

I would do that deal without hesitation.. but I don't think Seattle needs Glover or Crawford. They got Mason who plays 2/3, Lewis who plays 3/4, and Radman who plays 3/4.

[Traceman]

I don't know if they would want the injury prone Crawford's long contract and Glover sort of duplicates what they already have in Mason but hey, if they would do it, so would I!
