Great to see our guys working hard to make a push for him though. What a burn it'll be if we can steal from the Spurs. First Scola, then Barry, thanks Spurs!

Re: Rockets Offer Barry Contract
I'm obligated as a Brent Barry jersey owner to step in and state that Brent Barry rules.
(And, FWIW, I'm pretty sure he's going back to the Spurs.)

Re: Rockets Offer Barry Contract
I think if Barry waits 30 days he won't be with the Spurs in time for their playoff roster setting.

Not according to 82Games.
Pop plays Barry the most at SG/SF. I would take your argument and say he's even more incapable of guarding quicker point-guards. We're 24th in the league in 3 point shooting, I think the primary reason for bringing Barry is to surround TMac and Yao with shooters that can facilitate offense.

Re: Rockets Offer Barry Contract
the only way you aren't allowed on a playoff roster is if you are waived after March 1st or signed out of free agency after March 1st. If you are waived/bought out before March 1st you can sign with any team prior to the playoffs... and still be eligible to be on the roster.
That's why Cassell needs to get bought out this week so that he can sign with another contender for the playoffs
At least that is how I understand the rules.. I could be wrong.

Re: Rockets Offer Barry Contract
No decision by Brent today means he doesn't sign here. It would be great if Rick made it known to him that he would be an active part of the rotation.
I just hope Luther has a great playoffs this year.

Re: Rockets Offer Barry Contract
I hope Barry signs but I really do think this a Stackhouse thing. I dont think he ever intended to go anywhere else.
The rules need to be changed that if you are bought out you cant sign with your former team until the end of the season.

Free agent guard Brent Barry told FOX 26 Sports he plans to make a decision on his future later Wednesday but that decision no longer includes the Houston Rockets.
"To put it in basketball terms, the Rockets put on a full court press. But, when it was announced Yao Ming had the injury that made things pretty tough," Barry said. "It didn't cinch the decision because the Rockets have a lot to offer. Yao's injury is a big blow to the team, the city, and the rest of the league for that matter."
