Good thing Jake isnt a GM. lol. Its not always the blockbuster trades and signings that make teams better lol. Smart GMs know how to buiild with role players around their current stars. Too many big pickups = problems. *see LA Lakers with Kobe, Karl Malone, GP, Shaq.
move is meaningless

robert horry is one of the all time greatest cluth players, a crafty defender, and an awesome passer . not to mention he opens up the court..........however his age makes him meaningless now because a half way decent defender can shut that down. with that said....how old is brent barry 37/38 years old? yes he can shoot the three but he's going to be taking a backseat to T-macBobby Jacksonsteve francis Rafer Alstonand probably Shane Battier that's why i say he's not going to do much for this team......everyone up there is younger and save for injury i don't really see him making a big splash. They can all pretty much do what brent can do, but better (save francis , but he'll get more touches and time)in san antonio he was more valuable because he was playing behind Finley and Ginobili.......Finley is old, and you could play brent off of ginobli and use him as a reserve for bowen (due to lack of a 3 on the bench) Houston however has better options at the 2 and 3. Is brent some kind of "insurance" for the inevitable tracy mcgrady back injury or something?? lol get outta here Barry outside rang may have been a key asset to another team....but in houston he's just a body on the bench, a practice player for the starters, collecting a paycheck. Houston takes the L to Utah again.
