Barry should be Rockets' secret weapon

The Rockets pick up of Brent Barry will give them someone they can look to in the playoffs to knock down shots. Coach Rick Adelman will have to monitor his minutes this year. Put him in there enough to learn the offense, but they don’t want to be in a situation where they are counting on him to play in heavy rotation to win games. He’s the type of player that it would be good if they won without him during the regular season and then brought him in as a secret weapon heading into the playoffs. They should treat him like Detroit treated Lindsey Hunter last year. The Rockets could have been the Western Conference representatives in the Finals last season had Yao Ming stayed healthy. He's the best center in the league right now and was playing at the highest level he'd been at since joining the NBA as a no-English speaking rookie. They are very close. It's going to be players like Barry that are going to push them over the top. He can make the shots that Posey made for the Celtics during their title run.
