As nice a guy as Barnes seemed to be I think guys get tired of hearing a guy talk who isn't producing on the court. I don't think it's an accident that we had better team chemistry this past year than we did in any year Barnes was on the team.I think that had more two do with these two other clowns Robin Hews and Little Jordan.
Barnes is a great professional, which makes it harder to resist overpaying for his average starter playing level.
Barnes 18/4/1 shooting 40/39/83 for $24M (last year with Mavs)
DFS 10/6/2 shooting 47/38/72 for $4M (this year with Mavs)
That´s how you build a winner.
