J.J. Barea 26 Points/7 Threes Full Highlights (12/26/2015)
Watching J.J. Barea play well in Mavericks’ uniform always brings back warm, fuzzy memories of him and Dirk and Tyson winning a chip. Back when everyone still hated LeBron, and Wade was getting comeuppance for being a flopping piece of human garbage. Mark Cuban had a chance to reunite the big three outlined above. Why…

J.J. Barea awoke to the blare of the hotel room alarm clock. He groggily opened his eyes, his head pounding from the night of hard partying he had just experienced. Despite the annoying alarm’s best efforts, it could not remove Barea’s memories of beautiful ladies and plentiful booze at one of New York’s most exclusive…

Every time I’m tempted to call J.J. Barea a manlet, which is an almost hourly occurrence, I have to remind myself that he did once dunk a basketball.

JJ Barea stood on the sandy beach, his eyes closed, facing the direction of the reflected moon on the shimmering water.

This is a first, since I started having custom thumbnails. No closeup of the player in question! Sometimes I forgo the closeup, but this time I didn’t even have the option. Come on Grizzlies camera people! At least show one while JJ is busy taking a dump on your pathetic team during the fourth quarter….

People don’t really like JJ Barea. I think this is because Puerto Ricans on the whole are underrepresented on social media compared to…

The Timberwolves hit 13 (actually 14 oops) threes tonight against the Pistons, which is notable since they are a horrible three-point shooting team, by far the worst in the league. Love, Rubio, Ridnour, Williams, Kirilenko, Shved and Gelabale are all shooting below 32% on the season. Their best three baller is shooting a paltry 34%….

J.J. “Speedy Gonzalez” Barea is pretty short for an NBA player. But you already knew that. It’s the only thing that the casual fan knows about him. But here’s some other J.J. Barea factoids: -There is a grainy video of him dunking a basketball on a ten foot rim in pregame warmups -He was once…
