Mavs looking to re-sign J.J. Barea
Updated: October 26, 2014, 5:14 PM ET By Marc Stein | ESPN.com
The Minnesota Timberwolves are in the process of finalizing a buyout for
veteran guard J.J. Barea that should enable Barea to become a free agent early
next week, according to league sources.
Sources told ESPN.com that Barea will be waived by the Wolves before Monday's 5
p.m. deadline for teams to cut rosters down to 15 players and possibly as early
as Sunday.
Sources say that the Dallas Mavericks, meanwhile, are planning to re-sign Barea
next week once he clears waivers. Barea is expected to clear because his
salary-cap number for the coming season is $4.5 million.
The Mavericks would have to create a roster spot to make room for Barea but can
do so by trading or releasing guard Gal Mekel or big man Greg Smith.
Barea would be the second member of the Mavs' 2011 championship team to return
to the franchise in recent months after Dallas reacquired center Tyson Chandler
in June in a trade with the New York Knicks.
灰狼已經買斷JJB，以讓球員名單降至15人。
如果JJB沒有，被人認領走，小牛有興趣將其簽回來
但小牛15人名單滿了，如果要簽下JJB，可能會嘗試交易或釋出Mekel或者G.Smith
如果JJB回歸，就是拳王之後這幾個月以來第二位冠軍成員回歸小牛了
心得：G.Smith應該不用擔心會被裁掉，除非他能交易回來更好的內線
不然如果拳王受傷了，難道Dirk要去扛五號嗎
至於Mekel又被捲入去留風波中
單論第三控衛，JJB最少已經證明可以在NBA常規賽中替輪替作出正常貢獻
如果是以JJB替換Mekel，陣容最少不會比現在差，尤其卡帥還有JJB使用說明書
不過比起Mekel，Ledo和比克也可能是被裁掉的可能人選
【Mekel看起來有練起來的可能阿，裁掉ledo或比克吧】
就看這幾天有沒有球隊要認領JJB然後才知道後續的發展會如何
Never Say No to J.J. Barea
