    Leandro Barbosa • SG • Golden State Warriors
    I like his game
    I think he will be able solidify the backup guards spots

    What type of contract does he get?

    Codman mentioned him as a possibility bc of this..but that was before Gordon agreed...

    I think they'll be looking for a pg who runs the offense ,with a decent j, instead.

    I think we'll sign him for a reserve role.

    We have 10 million left in cap space. Our biggest needs are at point guard and Center.

    Barbosa would be a decent backup and he obviously has the connection with D'Antoni. I know Harden will be be playing our main PG/ballhandling duties, but I still think our remaining cap space would be better suited for either a more traditional PG than Barbosa or another rim protecting/rebounding Center. IMO

    I think I like him too but like with Anderson

    they are 2 or 3 years too late for my part

    They probably got a couple of years of good basketball left

    He is better than Jason Terry, but I wouldn't exactly be a fan unless it was for the vet min.

    Not a fan. We have enough wings who can't dribble.

    That's who I think we need to lock down. Why not continue to add ex Pelicans. Always liked his game

    Hard to see him not trying to return to GSW. I've always been a fan of his though. I would love to have him if there's minutes for him.
