Harrison Barnes has let the NBA know that he can light it up when he goes one-on-one. He’ll never be a flashy ball handler, but he has studied scorers such as Paul Pierce, who for years was able to force his way to his favorite spots on the floor and score. That’s what Barnes has been able to do, using physicality and leverage to display his crafty ability. (ESPN.com)
