We don't need five 6th men
If Barnes was here, he would be a starter. I will take by your responses that you don't view him as a starter? I don't agree, but that is fine. He is certainly a solid starter in the league.

Don't agree on the 6th man thing, but I agree the trade was largely for chemistry. He and Luka didn't fit together. He was part of the Luka butthurt crew with the other three starters.
I have seen people insinuate this, but did not see it. On court fit, maybe. But butthurt? HB was a good teammate by all accounts.
