The FG% looks bad, but someone had to take shots for them today. I don't know what was wrong with Klay, but he was invisible most of the game. And with Curry being hampered by his ankle and Lee only being able to play a few minutes in short spurts, they needed Barnes and Jack to step-up, which they did.
Barnes missed some good looks and I thought he got fouled a few times but the refs didn't call anything. But it's the playoffs and the refs are going to let more contact go. He had one spurt at the end of the first quarter, after the Warriors had gone forever without a bucket, where he scored something like 6 or 8 straight points to keep them afloat. Then he hit a few big shots in the 4th and OT. He's been really impressive in the playoffs.

Aggressive Barnes can be a special player.
Passive and staying at the corner 3's is a decent role player.

Needs to improve his jumper and handle. He gets hacked a lot with no calls. Prob that rook stuff so it will be interesting to see if he lives on the line in the future.

This. I was always one who thought his game would translate better to the NBA. Roy Williams runs an uptempo system, but it's an inside-out system in the halfcourt. Barnes was operating with very little spacing in college due to having Tyler Zeller and John Henson manning the paint.
Despite some of the knocks he got for underachieving, not living up to the hype, etc., he still showed some flashes of brilliance, and he was far from bad. He was immensely clutch his freshman year, seemingly always hitting a big bucket late in any close game. He had several game-winners and of course a 40 point game his freshman year in the ACC Tournament. The biggest stain on his college career was his inability to properly step-up in the NCAA tournament his sophomore year after they lost Marshall and John Henson was playing with one good arm/hand. I was disappointed in him but didn't lose confidence in my belief that he'd be a good pro, and would look better in the NBA than he did in college.

His issue at UNC was the roster fit. Ignoring the bizzaro start to his career where he would go 2-13 in games and then hit game winners. Also after Larry Drew bitched out on his teammates...
You surround a solid, not good, shooter who has a shaky handle, with a PG who didn't even start looking for his own offense until the last month of his career, a SG who couldn't score 10 points even if he wanted to, and two post players who played in the paint with a short college 3pt line... Yeah he's going to have some difficulties on offense.
Inside the key was too crowded, defenses could sag off both guard positions to help on Barnes, and then you expose his weaknesses (playmaking, ball handling).
Not to mention he put on way too much weight in his sophomore year, which slowed him down, and he decided he was going to drive a lot more. Nothing wrong with that, except there was no where to go with Z and Henson's defenders in the paint waiting for Barnes to penetrate. He was also playing injured for the last quarter of the season.
There's another side to this (which is the side I'm partial to), but that's basically why Barnes struggled in college.
So happy Lillard also turned out well, because I'd be pissed if he didn't and Barnes was playing like this.

I think Barnes is a good fit in Golden State. Things seemed to work out for both of them. Not sure he'd be best suited with a franchise who was more dependent upon his scoring. He can have more of an all-around role with the Warriors.
It is looking like a good pick and right where he should have gone.

Except all of those shots were taken within the context of their offense. Yes, he didn't shoot well, but he put tremendous pressure on the Spur's defense by creating and taking good shots. Aside from his FG%, which you're overrating its negative impact, his aggressiveness and tenacity was necessary for the win.

It's obvious that you're a boxscore reader. No one said he's going to become a star, but he's shown obvious signs that he will be better than a good roleplayer, which he already is right now.

When did FG% become the end-all, be-all of player impact? Granted, you want efficiency with your scoring in an ideal scenario, but a guy can have a huge positive impact on a game without shooting lights out.
Pretty clear that Barnes heavily influenced the outcome of this game, for anyone who actually watched it. And, I'm a guy that wasn't crazy about him coming out last year and still have questions about his ceiling. Still, he's already a pretty good player and, better, he has improved his game as the lights have grown brighter.
Always a great sign for a young player. I really like Barnes in his current role with GS. It is an ideal fit.

Could he be a better than good role player? Yes because he is 20, but he is being overpraised. Jack and Curry performed the best today for the warriors. The box score matters. It let's you take emotion out, which clouds judgement. You may see Barnes hit some big shots at the end and go gaga for Barnes, but the box score reminds you that his low% high volume shooting was a chief reason they were behind in the first place.
Scoring (or at least high volume low efficiency scoring) has become overrated. His 26 points on 9/26 is not good there are better uses of shots than that.

Someone had to shoot. Klay was invisible and Steph was injured. The offense ran through Jack and Barnes, which is extremely impressive for a rookie. Not to mention the fact that Barnes played solid defense, rebounded the ball, and hit a handful of clutch shots.
Keep harping on efficiency though - obviously the most important aspect of the game

Some people just don't get it man.. Barnes was getting the ball at the end of shot clocks, on the break, etc. Guess it would've been a better if he swung it to bogut for a 20 footer to save his FG and give his team a lower percentage shot.

I disagree that he's being overpraised. He's certainly improved noticeably since the regular season and he's simply being given props for that, especially since he's a rookie. Anything more than that I will agree is being overpraised, but for now it's really nothing special. Yes, boxscores allows you to see the game numerically, but they don't allow you to see how those shots were taken. Mark Jackson admitted to wanting to force feed Barnes against Parker to get good shots. He got good shots and was aggressive, but he just didn't convert most of them. Can you ask for more? You blame his low FG%, yet who else was going to put pressure on the defense this game? Jack was excellent as always, but he's not a dynamite scorer. Steph has a bum ankle and it obviously hampered him. Klay is a spot up shooter and playmaking isn't one of his strengths.
Again, it's not his scoring output that is being noticed, it's his aggressiveness to attack the defense with good shots. You say that there are better uses for those shots, but you have to realize that in this game, there really weren't any.

The only thing I disagree about when it comes to the Barnes praise in the postseason is the notion that this means he should have been selected higher in the draft. It is still way too early to judge something like that and quite a few players who looked very good in the regular season weren't on teams that allowed them to be showcased in front of a wider audience the way Barnes is now... which is generally the case for the Top 5-6 players in the draft.
There's a reason those teams are drafting that high. Meanwhile, it was relatively obvious coming into this season that Golden State was becoming poised for a playoff run.
I think he went exactly where he should have gone and both Barnes and Golden State should be happy about the way it has turned out so far.
Aside from that, he deserves the praise for stepping up his game on the big stage.

If he didn't convert them he didn't go a good job scoring. The problem is the NBA today is iso-centric. Teams should score by ball movement, especially teams like the Warriors without a single dominant force. Barnes is definitely not good enough to force feed against anyone. You have to be elite to do that. Since they had a hobbled Curry they should have scored with a team game with a lot of hockey assists.

He was forced to carry Curry and Klay's load offensively in his first playoff season as a rookie.
Watching the game he was aggressive and put points on the board while Bogut missed tip ins and wide open layups and in doing so keep it close along with help by Jack who struggled playmaking still scored and made timely shots (though I wish Curry could have worked around a few double screens for the last Reg shot.)
He scored when the Spurs seemed to be puliing away and that made the OT win possible.

But that's the whole point, isn't it? I know he wasn't efficient in his scoring, but the main point is that by taking good shots, you're putting pressure on the defense. Honestly, you're acting like Barnes was playing like how Kobe plays in the triangle, which are iso post ups or perimeter isos almost every possession that hugely stagnates the offense. It honestly has nothing to do with being elite. If you have a mismatch, you exploit it. Just because someone isn't a superstar, you don't give them the ball if they have a mismatch? Ridiculous.
Also, you're implying that Barnes' shot attempts prevented GSW from playing a team game, even though everyone on the team who is an offensive threat contributed and got their shots up for the most part. Klay missed shots he usually makes, Landry missed some easy buckets (although they should've went to him a bit more), Bogut is a defensive center, Curry did his job considering his injury, and Jarret Jack was terrific.
He did what he was asked to do within the offensive scheme, which helped them to win the game. Like I said before, who else was capable of taking those shots that you say he should've given up?

Most important factor for me is he's cold blooded. Steps up and hits big FT's, and big shots, in big moments. Sometimes I forget he's a rookie he's so cool out there. :pimp:

not to derail this thread, but am i the only who thought it was odd unibrow got NO 1st place votes? lillard played more minutes than anybody in the nba. don't get me wrong...i think lillard had a very impressive rookie season and the only real knock was his FG%. i think he's a future all-star and here to stay. still thought AD would pull in at least a couple 1st place votes though...
as far as harrison barnes...i always thought he had sneaky athleticism. seems like he's getting more aggressive lately too which is great. definitely a possible future all-star. i agree that spacing was an issue for him in college. i really hope he develops more of a post game because his game will take even more of a major leap. the best part of his game today was that he wasn't overly iso centric. he didn't waste much time pounding the rock. he'd either quickly cut off the ball, make a quick pass or attack. very much under control and not much wasted movement.
and if SA is going to continue to have diaw, parker and neal guard him? barnes will eat them alive.
i thought from the start that GS would have the best shooting backcourt and these playoffs are just solidifying that. bogut is the defensive anchor obviously and how great was his block of duncan down late? then he even recovered and contested another shot before grabbing the board! that was seriously one of the best defensive sequences by a player i've seen all year. aside from his dumb moving screen, bogut was terrific down the stretch. i really think bogut is the unsung hero of that game. his presence was immense.

Just seems like the Warriors have more good players than San Antonio. In a way I can't believe the Warriors haven't swept. They technically should be up 3 to 1 and if this team was more mature, it would have been an easy sweep. The Spurs have 3 aging stars, but the Warriors just seem to be so much deeper, with perhaps even more talented stars
Steph Curry
Jarret Jack
Klay Thompson
Andrew Bogut
Carl Landry
Draymond Green
Harrison Barnes
... Oh yea and David Lee lol
Then there is San Antonio..
Kawi Leonard
Tim Duncan
Tony parker
Manu Ginobili
And it pretty much ends there. The rest are just players that can only do one thing and Popp doesn't even have confidence in them. If The Warriors can stay off of ticky fouls and not turn the ball over so much, they will win this series, even in 6. They are the better, younger, deeper, better rebounding, more athletic, more inspired, more hungry, and more talented team.

Completely agree.
I think people made their minds up on ROY at the halfway point and really didn't pay much attention going forward. It was obvious Lillard was going to win, so why even bother? That's the sense I got from it.
Lillard had a terrific season, but it felt like he began to come back to the rest of the field later in the season... Or the field began to catch up. In the first couple months of the season, you had Davis hurt, Drummond barely playing, Beal/Waiters working out their efficiency, etc. Meanwhile, Lillard looked like a seasoned pro.
By the end of the year, those other guys had either gotten healthy, began playing more minutes or started working out the kinks (or a combination of the three) and I didn't think it was quite the runaway that many envisioned.
Lillard deserved it, but yes... I was surprised it was unanimous.
I thought Kyrie Irving had a clear ROY season in 2011-12, but he actually got 2 second place votes and even a third place vote. I mean, if Iman Shumpert could get a first place vote in 2012, neither AD nor anyone else could get one in 2013?

You simply didn't watch the game... or didn't understand what you saw.
Totally, there was about three stretches where he got the ball went up strong, got fouled, no call, he hustles and gets the ball back up again, misses, rebounds it and gets fouled again no call. That right three was three shots missed, so in three separate occasions, he probably got up 8-9 shots that way
Another one was he went for a tip jam, missed it but it lead to a Carl Landry rebound.
Sure he was getting his number called when he was posting up against TP but the guy was not shot jacking ala Carmelo.
Harrison is my favourite rookie since the beginning of the season and I love the fact he's coming up big in the playoffs.
In fact I couldn't believe how calm he was, he was fouled so many times in that game, and everytime he would coolly hand the ball back to the ref.
Dude hit big shots!!! :applause:

Harrison Barnes just said that 20 year old Kobe was a long way from where he is right now. Love his cockiness.
That's not what he said

Thats the one of the best 9/26 i ever saw. Harrison was ballin. If that was my first time watching GS i would have thought that was his team. And if people really watch the game Harrison missed about 6 to 8 shots doin put backs & gettin fouled but no calls.

Totally, there was about three stretches where he got the ball went up strong, got fouled, no call, he hustles and gets the ball back up again, misses, rebounds it and gets fouled again no call. That right three was three shots missed, so in three separate occasions, he probably got up 8-9 shots that way
Another one was he went for a tip jam, missed it but it lead to a Carl Landry rebound.

Don't forget the 2 or 3 times someone threw him the ball with a couple of seconds left on the shot clock and he had to hoist up a bad shot.

Yup!
Let's hope the warriors push the spurs to a game 7, as it's my favourite series to watch so far in the playoffs, along with the Nuggets V Warriors.

Been great to watch what he has done as a rookie in these playoffs.
