What do you guys know about him? I saw Milwaukee cut him before the season since they had so many guards. Had a good run at Seton Hall and is a NY guy--wonder if he could give us any help at pg.

He was on our preseason roster last season before we cut him and he went to Houston for the rest of the season (and actually got some minutes since Houston didn't have a decent PG at the time).

I see Dre Barret all the time in the Bronx. He lives by a friend of mine. Next door actually. But seriously, dude is the real deal. He's no star but I do believe that if given the opportunity he could become a Tyron Lue type. He's of course shorter than Lue but dude has a real high bball IQ. I've seen him play a bunch of times including against nba comp and he's solid. Don't think he's a Rick Brunson type because he's not. It's just taking him a minute to stick. But at some point he's going to be solid for somebody.

I kinda wish Frank WIlliam got his act together, he would be a perfect PG under LB's tutolage, a good defender, good passer and can lead a team very well, when he isn't bothered by those migranes, but anyways that will never happen.

Yea Dre Barrett is a good player. Gave us all knicks tickets last year. He stays at the YMCA in the south bronx. His younger sister actually goes out with a friend of mine. But I think he has the ability to be a real contributor in this league.
