I don't remember Kendall on the sonics. :ohhh:
He apparently had a 2 year stop there between Hornets stints. Thought he was in Charlotte the whole time:pachaha:

I'd compare Barea to one of the most forgotten 6th

Man Of The Year winners of all time...A guy by the

name of Elliot "Socks" Perry.Met breh when I was a

kid.Skinny as hell and his eyes was WIDE the fukk open

.I thought a Goliath was creeping up behind me.

Mugsy>>>Barea


Shout out to all the Bron dikksuckers though. This is just a sports discussion all in fun. No disrespect whatsoever:salute:


I never said Barrea was better but don’t act like he couldn’t score pretty well for a guy his size. He even avg. a point more than Muggsy over their careers.

Muggsy was good for that era though but they aren't giving a 5'3 guy a chance in today's league.

JJ Barea is actually nice lmao

Earl Boykins was nice but nikkas tweaking saying Muggsy Bogues better than Barea

I don't like that JJ Barea is used as a measuring stick of how good an era is.

Dude is a great 6th man

JJ Barea definitely would have played over Shandon Anderson or Howard Eisley. :usure:

Not to mention BJ Armstrong was a damn All Star.

:comeon:Your buggin. JJ Barea was way better the Mugsy was

They just trying to turn shyt into stan wars as always.

How the fukk would J.J. Barea not have gotten burn in the 1990s? Dude was fast as hell, could shoot, and had mad moves and nice touch around the basket. And that was the era when short point guards could thrive, even ones that didn't have nearly his athleticism.


Bobby Hurley was a #7 draft pick in 1993 despite zero size, athleticism, or scoring skill

Muggsy Bogues started 600 games and gave contenders like the Knicks problems in the playoffs

Mark Price and John Stockton were 1st-team All-NBA

B.J. Armstrong was an All-Star

Spud Webb started for 7 years and had a 16ppg season.

And probably the best comparison to Barea....Michael Adams was a 26.5ppg scorer for Denver in 1991.

Michael Adams was the SAME height as Barea only skinnier, slower, with a broken jump shot and less body control in the air....but Barea wouldn't have gotten burn. :francis:

Yeah mugsy was way better than Barrea lol

Their games were completely different, but Barea had 7" on Muggsy and a much better scoring repertoire, any era that Muggsy is starting, Barea is gonna get burn.


Here's a more accurate comparison. Who you taking, J.J. Barea or Michael Adams and his broken-ass jump shot?






They literally have the same game only Barea is waaaay more polished with it and doesn't have that broken-ass jump shot. :usure:

Except that that skill set only gets you 7th man status in Barea's era, while in Adams's era he was a starting PG making the all-star game.

DC was a beast. One of the only guys I remember dunking on prime Shaq. He should of had a KG type career but lacked the work ethic and motivation. I used to watch a lot of Nets games in the DC, Kenny and Drazen era, it’s a shame they didn’t get more time.
