Matt Barnes?

[Who]

Limited interest in Barnes. I don't really view him as a rotation caliber player. Too streaky offensively and a below average defensive player.

Barnes would make a decent second wing off the bench and an excellent fifth wing in the rotation. On a minimum contract.

Obviously, Barnes is looking for more playing time and more money than that ... so no, not interested.

[snively]

Too easy to ignore offensively, exploit defensively and not quite effective enough of a garbage man to make up for it.  And I think he's hated by the majority of the players in the league, including the majority of the Celtics.  Whereas Posey was a respected thug, Barnes is just an annoying punk.

No way.  As already mentioned, he's a punk.  It's not that he plays a physical game or is an instigator, he's a dirty punk player that appears to put the physicalness over the game...the beautiful game that combines strength, agility, grace, timing, and teamwork...he just wants to rough people up.  He's a disgrace to the game.

Yet I wouldn't be surprised if he gets half the MLE (around $3 million per) for 4 years, but I doubt it will be Orlando that gives that up.  Prediction:  They let him walk and stand pat with a 2/3 rotation of Pietrus, Reddick, and Carter, with more minutes for Brandon Bass at Forward.  Orlando doesn't need him, and is better off without his "toughness" after all.

Such a sleaze. He has no game. Would be money wasted.
