What is Harrison Barnes ceiling?

Jeff green

barnes is not aggressive enough for his skillset and athleticism. Ill just say that. he isnt an outside shooter, but he plays timid like he is one

gs has an awful coach in jackson

He can be productive if used right

He's a motivator, not a coach. Their real coach went to Sacramento.

Wait a minute. So you saying I was disrespecting mason with that comparison....

Disrespedting barnes bro

I think barnes is significantly better than mason. Mason was a high flying acrobat that was not really a natural scorer or shooter.

barnes has been playing on a leash, but its clear to see he can be a perennial 20 pt per game scorer. He is more stiff than mason, but he makes up for it with power.

Smeobody on here said Richard Jefferson on the Nets.

I think thats a good comp for his ceiling

Agree.
Ill give jackson for changing their culture but they need to move on.

Malone being is one of the big reasons why they are underachieving this year.

No reason they should be ranked in 12th in offensive efficiency.

his skillset is a lot more limited than you think.

and his athleticism is straight line.

I will say this, his ceiling is NOWHERE near Dominique like @Blackthoughts said.

 

[Bounty]

also if they trade barnes to cleveland

barnes career = over

no one will prosper in that shythole

I dont disagree, actually...I dont think a lot of his skillset either, but he should be more agressive

You bullshyttin. He said that?

 

[malbaker86]

So he'

he's a straight line athlete

he fast and can jump high, but only in a straight line. He not fluid, not laterally quick. He is just a role player.

So he's Terrance Morris?

 

[mastermind]

So he's Terrance Morris?

i dont think Terrence's straight line athleticism was as good as Barnes'

Terrence was longer too. Barnes is better than Morris, but there needs to be no threads created about his ceiling.

 

[Heelmatic]

You bullshyttin. He said that?

lol nah he definitely said it. It's somewhere in either the Harrison Barnes/MKG thread or the Barnes/Terrence Jones thread...but he definitely said it.

no one will prosper in that shythole

According to crapthoughts he'll actually do better somewhere else because he'll get more shots up
