Spurs Get Harrison Barnes For Free 

GSW fan here. I've always loved Barnes. Solid player. Spurs picking up CP3 and Barnes is HUGE! Pop is the man! Spurs can surprise us this coming season and give the league a run for the money!! Good luck Harrison! I'm always a fan of you!!

Great points. Plus the UNPROTECTED pick swap in ‘31 is a huge asset. Kings could be terrible by then, who knows. This move was a massive W for the Spurs

Harrison Barnes seems like a good fit, i tend to agree.

Harrison and CP aren’t about to let that ball hogging shit fly.

I miss Tony Parker bro he was a legend

Chris Paul and Barnes. Both veterans, both with massive playoff experience. This is gonna be huge for the Spurs.

Anytime I think about Barnes I remember game 1 in the 2013 playoffs vs the Spurs. His shot almost buried us until Manu happened 😊👍🏻 Great acquisition and role player

Spurs gone make the playoffs this year

Bring Lauri on to the spurs

If the Spurs were to pick Markkanan, that would be a championship team.

These pieces fit great -would be crazy to see cp3 get a ring at the end.

Hearing we’re going to help the Bulls-Kings trade doesn’t bother me. Spurs know that they need playoff veterans and size. Lauri was plan A, however Ainge is super greedy. I thought of plan B like Cam Johnson or someone else. Harrison Barnes makes the most sense to us. He’s a solid shooter, system player, and I’m happy with this trade

Chess>checkers the Spurs will have 2 unprotected picks from typically bad franchises in the early 2030's while Vic is in his prime and on the max, or they can just use those picks as trade chips. Really been impressed with their first real offseason post Wemby

Harrison Barnes was key in changing the Warriors and Kings Culture. To winners.

Spurs piling on vets who have playoff and finals experience for cheap. This will be invaluable to their young core.

Spurs fan wil loved Harrison. He’s a great vet for that young team with cp3. Future is bright for y’all.

The normal timeline for a future superstar to become top 5 is between the 3rd and 5th year but I think Wemby is the future goat and he could be at least in the top 5 mvp conversation by next year.. so I think the Spurs might actually be a playoff team next season and a championship contender by Wembys 3rd year or at the latest his 4th year. I have a feeling CP3 will somehow be a borderline allstar again at 39 if he stays healthy, similar to how people didn’t expect him to help OKC get to the playoffs in 2020.

Barnes and a 1st for free

Spur did great job once again.

The "BIG SHOT BOB" of this Spurs generation - Calling it now.

Keldon johnson so slept on

If we can get rif od Keldon and some draft picks to get Markkanen that would be ideal. Keldon just doesn't fit our roster well.

Barnes has never disappointed me. Great pick to me.

Just get a few pros to teach the young guys how to prepare and execute game plans. Wemby will be hitting his stride in a few years.

The Wemby era has begun. You have a veteran PG Chris Paul and now you have a veteran SF that has championship experience. Also a young Rookie that can develop into an amazing option….dude they might mess around and win one in 2 years if developed properly. And they have the right players to do so.

Starting Lineup: Wemby 21PPG, Chris 15PPG; Harrison 14PPG, Vassel 19PPG, Jeremy S 11PPG = 80 pts per game. Give an take. Wemby may avg 25-30pts next season. Their bench players gotta get 20-30pts per game. I feel SA need another scorer. Maybe someone that avgs 15-20ppg. Which is impossible to get. Those type players have been signed. SA needs a unicorn bench player. Otherwise... this crew should make the playoffs.

Chris Paul about to put on a show just watch spurs are gonna be back

Perfect players around wemby

Yes... Teach those young men to pass the ball to their franchise player.

I prefer Harrison Barnes contract over d.graham’s Barnes is also a better Vet for what our team needs as far as our young wings. Plus he will see minutes and be a solid role player. I hope the spurs can round out the roster on cheaper contracts but bring in leadership maybe Evan fournier to help WEMBY feel more comfortable and can still shoot. We need to get back to moving the ball around so players who spread the floor and knock down open jumpers.

This is a very good move for the Spurs.

I loved what I'm seeing in the movement of spurs management this off season, they only gave the 8th pick but received tons of trade assets (picks) plus this move getting Barnes with 2 2nd rd pick while keeping our cap space

A physical 4 or 5 would improve the roster, and gives more freedom to Wemby on both end of the floor.

Love the changes the spurs made, Gary Trent Jr is still a free agent very surprised the spurs haven't gone after him.

I like HB he can definitely help out a lil bit not bad GSG👽

Castle will be a star, and I'm just wondering if they are done tanking with this good draft coming up?

Harrison Barnes. Harrison Ingram. Both North Carolina alumni. The Spurs are playing 6d chess.

CP3 will get re-signed by Spurs again.

Great move for a up and coming young team like the spurs i like Their building plans

Didn't watch video. Nit just for free, they also got 2031 unprotected swap. Imagine 2031 being a deep draft and kings and wolves(from rob dilingham trade) both win the nba lottery at 1 and 2

Good! Spurs know who the star is.

Do we want Wimby to specialized in holy hoops or improve his game and be like Olajuwon? Don’t get me wrong. Chris Paul is a top 5 PG of all times and if he had better coaches he’d have 2-3 rings easily. But, he has worked best with limited centers who can only jump high, and those who had other skills (Ayton) diminished after playing with him (coz they didn’t improve in other areas). As for H. Barnes, can’t agree more. He is one of the most underrated player in this Leauge. He has a fade away jump, three points, and can play and defend all 5 positions.

Wemby, Sochan, Keldon, Castle, CP3 Collins, Barnes, Vassell, Branham and Tre with Devonte and Julian!!! Could be a fringe play in team!

Good move for Spurs because you get a model citizen vet presence, a pick swap and you’re not concerned about winning this year and next year it’s an expiring contract so it’s tradeable. However I almost spit my drink out when I heard he can guard 1 through 4. His D is average at best. He will have 6 games each year though that leave you wondering why he can’t play like that all the time.

They will probably trade barnes in a package of 1sts for Lauri Markonnen

Well done.

In hindsight, the Spurs traded Demar Derozan (2021 to the Bulls) three years later, to the Kings for Harrison Barnes.

Great pickups, but now we need LM to be a playoff team! 💯

Damn spurs all of a sudden relevant.

Spurs might fuck around win it this year

I love this pick up

If we can get Lauri mark then it's over....we're winning the chip! 🎉🎉🎉

I like it 🏀

I hope Barnes revive his career with the Spurs.

Wen wemby Paul & Barnes are healthy this will be great

Barnes will definitely help the spurs next season. Granted last season was horrible

VERY VERY LITTLE TO NO IMPACT BEEN WATCHING HARRISON BARNES SINCE DRAFTED BY GSW AS LOTTERY PICK HIS GAME HAS'NT IMROVED MAKING HIM A BUST... WEMBY WILL BE A SUPERSUPER STAR AFTER ONE YEAR

1. CP3 @PG #2 Castle SG #3 Vassell #4 Barnes #5 Wemby. 45 wins is possible!

I really like Barnes is he's defense

Spurs another one don’t sleep

Let’s goooooo

Time lord Rob Williams would be a great fit

CP, Sochan, Barnes, Wemby , Bassley they have a pretty decent team with there bench as well...

It is fun to watch the 😂Spurs this season.

Albany ga ray Charles home town in here, I been saying all this past season,we got roughed up,, dats a good thing,,get broke in.. NEXT😮add veterans and a few new pieces,now we ser😮

I'm hoping the Spurs acquire a true center to back up Victor Wembanyama and waive/trade perpetually injured center Charles Bassey. This will also allow them to move Zach Collins back to power forward, his natural position. If they reacquire Dominick Barlow or sign another power forward he can back up Zach.

We need another big so we can space the floor and so wemb can be on the outside passing to him that’s why we need to go get Lauri fuck it see what picks the jazz want we know they want at least 2 first round might as well go all in and make it a good couple of seasons

Can someone explain how he got Harrison Barnes for free?

for me sochan stays in the starting 5 , castle will take cp and maybe some vassel minuts when they need to breath a bit

This team is very cheap yet very scary 😮

Can Someone explain to me how keldon being our six man doesnt fit our team? Alien in the Mask👽... I am gonna have to start posting this to every Spurs feed starting today

HB is a pros pro

We got him but not for free

Killed Johnson is going to start at small forward

They got a 40 year old 6'0 PG and an overated veteran role player, everyone talking like Spurs got THE Chris Paul from 10 years ago and a star role player.

Trading the 8th pick for magic beans was not a perfect move

CP is only worth 35-40 games a year!

Top 3 seed just watch

I don’t want to give up valuable draft assets for a guy who’s gonna command $200 mil when contract expires. That’s why I’m not 💯 on trading for Markannen.

Only 1 thing left to do, Trade keldon to Detroit for beef stew,flynn and 2 first round picks

Its not free. It comes with the very high price of having Harrison Barnes take a roster spot.

for me going all in for markenin now would be really stupid, Victor make spurs have a 12 years year window why would you go all in in year 2 when you didn t even know how much better he would be next year ? if cp has an injurie it s already not far from over to do something right now, don t give up assets and take some good young guys who can grow with and behind Victor assuring him that they will be at least still competitive after his rookie contract without cp and barnes, they did get them for nearly nothing, they will help Vic and some of the young guys to gaine basketball experience and maybe some play off experience even this year, maybe in 2 year castle will be ready to takeover Cp role, maybe not , maybe at this time you will need to trade vassel for example (because the chemistry don t seem to be insane with vic), maybe you will have some other talents showing up for next draft, then you can start to invest assets to really compete for the ring

They didn't get him for FREE, Barnes takes up the rest of the Spurs cap space. Still a great move though

Barnes trade made no sense 🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️now we lose our pick next year from Chicago 🤦‍♂️ 1-14 protected if Chicago didnt lose derozan and got ball back maybe we could have got 15 pick but now we lose picks 🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️and get Barnes which i bet he never wears spurs jeresey 💯

Will Barnes, at 32yo, start? Will he be traded in Feb to dump salary and get a younger player and 2nd round picks?

Free???Wow...

So i get the whole seasoned vets to teach the young guys but at what cost? With the bulls tanking its unlikely we get their 2025 pick. With atl record being a 50/50 pick the only pick that is safe is our own. If we win 35 plus games there goes that lottery pick and for what? To be slightly better than a bottom division team?

It's not for free though

Barnes not consistent, no defense.

"In Pop We Trust" = Go Spurs Go . . . oNe LovE from NYC

It’s a stretch when you say Castle will be the best player in this draft. Buzelis, Salaun, Reed, to name a few are already better than him whom we could have gotten 2 of those. We can get a PG a PG that isn’t 40 years old. I know he’s there to teach but if you ain’t a PG you ain’t a PG.

Kings are way over-rated! I rather have HB than Demar any day of the week. Spur can contend for play in tournament.

Cp3 never a champion?

A draft pick bait

As a Kings fan you are not going to be happy with Barnes. He is one of the most inconsistent players I have even seen.

Spurs turned into a joke...

Useless players. Cp3 will be injured a lot. Harrison Barnes is Harrison Barnes. Not even sure if you can make the Play in.

Spurs are building a competitive team for '25. They will now exceed regular season wins and probably finish somewhere between 7th and 10th in the West. But Chris is allergic to the Playoffs so he won't play. Their "success" next year will only hurt draft position. Nets pick would have been high but i think that was traded for a Phoenix pick that will probably be similar to the Spurs next year. I know there are other picks involved but it doesn't really help Victor to have good picks in 3-5 years. Two moves i dont like: not keeping Rob and bringing in Paul. Wemby needs a playmaker and Rob was probably the highest ceiling one in the class. And Chris doesnt have what he used to with athleticism. But he has certainly honed his "hurt in the playoffs" skills.

Anyone Spurs pick up from now on is a upgrade from the selfish players and Haters they have now! At least these players will know Wemby is the future!!

They should flip him for a young guy, they still are barely a play in team so no reason to have him on the roster and risk being to good for a lottery pick.
