Harrison Barnes refuses to sign with Kings

[bringmagicback]

And why are we taking this rumor seriously? Does it really merit a thread that will dissolve into the same old pro/anti HB speeches?

Well its something an NBA expert said on a pretty popular sports show, The Scott Ferrall Show. I just cant find the guys name. WHy do we take any sports story serious unless we were in the room to hear it first hand from the player himself?

I dont see who wouldnt want to play for the Maloofs, two of the best owners outside Cuban imo

Great owners? They suck. They have no one on that team who wants to play defense. I wouldn't want to go there either.

Doubt it is true, but it does make you think about the comments he made regarding his brand. The last person I can think of doing that in the NBA is Steve Francis, though I wouldn't be surprised if I'm missing some.

I didnt say the team was good.

If there is any substance to this rumor, I suspect that it is just a ploy by his agent to get people focused on him as a Top 5 pick, particularly if he has a sense that his stock might be slipping.

Worked for John Elway and Eli Manning. They're like winners.

Troublemakers, both of them.

I hope he rots in Charlotte or Sacramento

Apparently he cancelled a workout with the Kings. Could be related or a promise of a higher pick. http://www.cowbellkingdom.com/2012/0...for-leftovers/

The 'brand' apparently won't sell in Sacramento. Barnes annoys me.

What a ******* baby. I cannot stand when athletes do this. Kind of like Eli Manning refusing to play for the chargers, just makes you look like a dumb ***

The best was in the short run that actually worked out well for the CHargers, they ended up with 2 good qb's

And zero rings. Good job guys.

They did chase out the better QB, and that QB picked up a ring in New Orleans, so there's that.
