GREAT.

His absence is definitely going to affect the team scoring, unless one of the bench guys steps up big time.
I guess this explains why he was playing so bad. I wonder if he was concealing the injury from the FO all along.

It has been several games since Barbosa was anything but a negative on the floor. He literally wasted possessions because he couldn't shoot.

This is the best thing for the team and LB.

The Suns FO knew about the cyst on his right wrist all season. They were just hoping that LB could play through it. I'm glad he is getting surgery now on the wrist because I still worry about the ankle he injured earlier. I think giving it some rest (away from playing) could help.

Poor guy hasn't been able to catch a break since the death of his mother.

Get well LB!

Glad to see him out, hes been terrible. Unfortunately we wont be able to trade him untill next year now as it will take that long to get the dudes confidence back up.

 

[AfroSuns]

I agree he has been terrible since he got back from the surgery, but it appears some are forgetting the current woes of the team coincide with when LB landed on Turkoglu's feet. We just lack enough offense off the bench. So i guess, the team looks to continue their decline if any of the bench players don't step up.

That is an interesting way of showing sympathy for an injured member of your favorite basketball team.

Lol......You must have missed his other "I hate Barbosa" post, even when the guy contributed.

I dont hate him, I just dont like him on my team. I think hes WAY overrated, but thats my personal opinion and I know alot of people dont agree with me.

I do agree to a certain extent. yes, he is ovverated by some people on this board, but he is a guy that can suddenly pop up out of nowhere and give us 30 in one game.

Agreed. Addition by subtraction. If we have a stretch run, it would be nice to get a HEALTHY Barbosa back.

Barbosa is a very good young player with a great contract how any Suns fan wouldn't want guys like that on your team is just ignorant!

 

[dreamcastrocks]

I dropped him from my fantasy keeper team.

his contract is right where it should be considering the dude is always injured. I mean hes a 1 dimenional player that literally cant contribute in any other facets of the game except scoring.
