He's probably not quite as good as Trae was, but he's definitely better than any of the alternatives currently on the roster.

He's probably not quite as good as Trae was, but he's definitely better than any of the alternatives currently on the roster. I don't know that I would say that Golden was a better point player. Looking at the stats about the only thing I see that appears to sland in favor of Golden is that he shot a higher free throw percentage. Everything else seems to tilt Barton's way, and from watching Memphis play it certainly appeared that he was a better defensive player. Here are links to career stats for both for your own analysis: http://www.sports-reference.com/cbb/players/antonio-barton-1.html http://www.sports-reference.com/cbb/players/trae-golden-1.html Title: Re: Antonio Barton... Saw on another board that Post by: Volznut on May 26, 2013, 07:57:02 EDT Barton is a better PG. He kicked our tail 2 years ago. Hit the winning shot vs UT in Hawaii, along with 21 points.

Saw on another board that Post by: SmokeyJoe on May 26, 2013, 11:27:33 EDT Trae was just so inconsistent. Always seemed a bit almost clumsy. Didn't he ALWAYS drive right? Still he was a solid player. Happy with Barton given what it was looking to be. :powert:
