Warriors getting ‘Playoff Barnes’ at just the right, and expected, time

Posted Apr 10, 2016
Harrison Barnes has proven his value to the Warriors, which is almost assuredly going to make him money. Because Barnes’ biggest chip is not his scoring average, but this: his biggest games tend to come when the Warriors really need him. Thursday vs. San Antonio, with the No. 1 seed and a record 73 wins on the line, Barnes had a season-high-tying 21 points. (San Jose Mercury News)
