"We've been in contact with Miami," Barnes said. "No question they've added some pieces with the Big Three." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Debonair 106 Report post Posted July 9, 2010 stop being bitter. its not like matt barnes was the magic's all star small forward. he pretty much let everyone know when he signed with this team that he was ring chasing. how many times has he said "i came to orlando because i want to win a championship" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BMP 424 Report post Posted July 9, 2010 Matt Barnes talking about wanting a bigger contract and then signing with the Heat for the minimum would be the biggest piece of contradiction since... well, since LeBron signed with the Heat. I guess it hasn't been that long. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Magic Fan 4 Life 14 Report post Posted July 9, 2010 Let Matt go there if that's what he wants. He has no chance to start there unless they put LeBron or Wade at the point. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
My 6th Rebuild 6 Report post Posted July 9, 2010 I like Barnes game. He would excel playing with those guys. If another team offers him a multi year deal, no matter if they are a contender or not, he's gone. Barnes is just looking for some stability. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Miller4Prez64 1 Report post Posted July 9, 2010 If Barnes wants to ring chase, whatever. But he opted out for money, so leaving us for a rival for the minimum would be a huge stab in the back. It's not like we're the T-Wolves either, we've won 118 games the last two years with 23 playoff wins. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
