Barry waived by Sonics!

In order to complete the trade, the Sonics waived Brent Barry to make the necessary roster spots available. Barry was acquired yesterday in a trade with the San Antonio Spurs.

T-Minus 30 days until the Return of Bones? Please God.

Re: Barry waived by Sonics!
If he does end up in Phoenix and the Spurs meet them in the playoffs, I'll betchya he has a negative for his +/-.

Re: Barry waived by Sonics!
According to hollinger, we have enough room under the cap to sign someone to a prorated vet minimum and remain under the cap.  So I guess he could come back if he wants.

Re: Barry waived by Sonics!
Well, except that the Sonics waived him, instead of buying him out, therefore the team that signs him has to pay the remainder of his contract for this year. I don't have the exact numbers in front of me, but it would push us into Luxury Tax territory.

Re: Barry waived by Sonics!
If he came back, this trade would be awesome then.

Re: Barry waived by Sonics!
i'm gonna try and not get too excited about this at the moment, but it will be tough. i am starting to believe in miracles.

if he does go to phoenix it will just hurt emotionally, but i dont think he would play very much for them given mow much mike d like to use his bench.

Re: Barry waived by Sonics!
If Barry comes back in 30 days that would be amazing. Talk about a slap in the face to Mark Cuban and Jerry Stackhouse.
