Matt Barnes Fires Another Agent

The expectations of Warrior Matt Barnes are not being met, dammit! Dude just fired his agent for the second time in two months, according to the San Francisco Chronicle's Janny Hu.

Barnes fired his longtime agent Bill Neff right after Golden State's improbable playoff run. Apparently, Dan Fegan wasn't the right match, because now he's gone. Matty now brings Aaron Goodwin into the fold to salvage his free agency, and most likely his one shot to get a long-term NBA deal.

The fact Barnes hasn't gotten the full mid-level from some franchise... is that an indication teams are smartening up? That after Isiah Thomas' infinite ridicule in the wake of Jerome James teams now underrated so-called flukes? Because Barnes could very well be worth the midlevel in the right system. He's an upgrade on Devean George in Dallas, for sure. New Jersey could certainly have used him.

If he doesn't stay in Golden State (and it's either/or between him and Mickael Pietrus), he might have to take a smaller deal and sign up somewhere like Boston. At this point, it's all about avoiding the Bonzi Wells scenario.
