He led the league twice as a Sonic and finished second one other time, but since coming to San Antonio his numbers in this category had been, by his exalted standards, rather ordinary. That wasn’t the case last season. Barry shot a sizzling 44.6 percent on 3-pointers, and he took a <i>lot</i> of them – nearly four a game, or about one for every six minutes he was on the court.<br /><br /><br /><table id=“inlinetable” cellspacing=“1” cellpadding=“3” width=“250” border=“0”><tbody><tr><th style=“BACKGROUND-COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)” colspan=“9”>TS% leaders, 2006-07 </th></tr><tr style=“BACKGROUND-COLOR: rgb(236,236,236)” valign=“top”><td style=“BACKGROUND-COLOR: rgb(153,153,153)” width=“160”><b>Player</b></td><td style=“BACKGROUND-COLOR: rgb(153,153,153)” width=“40”><b>Team</b> </td><td style=“BACKGROUND-COLOR: rgb(153,153,153)” width=“40”><b>TS%</b> </td></tr><tr style=“BACKGROUND-COLOR: rgb(255,255,255)” valign=“top”><td width=“160”>Brent Barry </td><td width=“40”>Sas</td><td width=“40”>66.6</td></tr><tr style=“BACKGROUND-COLOR: rgb(236,236,236)” valign=“top”><td width=“160”>Steve Nash </td><td width=“40”>Pho</td><td width=“40”>65.4 </td></tr><tr style=“BACKGROUND-COLOR: rgb(255,255,255)” valign=“top”><td width=“160”>David Lee </td><td width=“40”>NY</td><td width=“40”>65.2 <br /></td></tr><tr style=“BACKGROUND-COLOR: rgb(236,236,236)” valign=“top”><td width=“160”>Erick Dampier</td><td width=“40”>Dal</td><td width=“40”>64.2</td></tr><tr style=“BACKGROUND-COLOR: rgb(255,255,255)” valign=“top”><td width=“160”>Mikki Moore </td><td width=“40”>NJ</td><td width=“40”>63.7</td></tr></tbody></table><br /><br />Additionally, Barry had the highest rate of 3-pointers to 2-pointers in the league. Just over two-thirds of his shot attempts were triples, a higher rate even than Cleveland’s absurdly one-dimensional Damon Jones. Since making 44.6 percent on 3s is like making 66.9 percent on 2s, and those comprised most of Barry’s shots, it’s easy to see how his TS% was so good. Barry also made half his long 2s and shot 56.1 percent on close-in shots. <br /><br />His season also puts his name on another list for the fourth time – that of the top TS% marks in recent NBA history. Relative to the league, Barry’s TS% was the 12th-best since 1989-90; five of the marks on that list are held by members of the Barry clan.<br /><br /><br /><table id=“inlinetable” cellspacing=“1” cellpadding=“3” width=“250” border=“0”><tbody><tr><th colspan=“9”>Top TS% seasons, relative to league average, since 1989-90* </th></tr><tr style=“BACKGROUND-COLOR: rgb(236,236,236)” valign=“top”><td style=“BACKGROUND-COLOR: rgb(153,153,153)” width=“140”><b>Player</b></td><td style=“BACKGROUND-COLOR: rgb(153,153,153)” width=“60”><b>Year</b> </td><td style=“BACKGROUND-COLOR: rgb(153,153,153)” width=“40”><b>Rel.

Barry had his highest 40-minute scoring rate in five years and recovered from the previous year’s weird struggles at the line. <br /><br /><b>Scouting report: </b>While Barry’s stand-still shooting stroke looks as deadly as ever, his defense is really starting to slip. Opponents routinely ran offense through whomever he was guarding, and Barry lost his starting job to Michael Finley even though he was shooting the lights out. While he’s a clever player who will force opponents into Tim Duncan’s path, his lack of muscle and lateral movement are becoming major issues. <br /><br />In addition to his shooting, Barry is a very good ballhandler and passer with an outstanding feel for the game. He rarely gets to show these skills because he’s mostly a catch-and-shoot player, but his court vision is without peer. A former dunk champ, Barry still can get up for transition jams at age 35. <br /><br /><b>2007-08 outlook: </b>Entering a contract year, Barry is likely to see his TS% drop this year – it’s difficult to stay that hot forever. But even if his mark is more like 60 than last year’s 66, it still makes him a valuable reserve because of his ability to stretch defenses and burn double-teams. His passing and dribbling skills also make him a useful player even when his shot isn’t falling. <br /><br />However, his defensive shortcomings likely mean his days as a starter are done. Look for him to play 15-20 minutes a night off the pine as the Spurs’ fourth or fifth wing player, as Manu Ginoibili, Bruce Bowen, Michael Finley and Ime Udoka all will chip away at his minutes.<br /><br /><b>Most similar at age:</b> <a href=“http://insider.espn.go.com/nba/players/hollinger?playerId=41”>Jon Barry</a></td></tr></tbody></table><a name=“key”></a><table class=“tablehead” cellspacing=“1” cellpadding=“3”><tbody><tr class=“stathead”><td colspan=“2”>Key to Player Statistics</td></tr><tr class=“evenrow” valign=“top”><td width=“50%”><b>FG%</b> Field-goal Percentage<br /><br /><b>FT%</b> Free-throw Percentage<br /><br /><b>P/40</b> Points per 40 minutes<br /><br /><b>R/40</b> Rebounds per 40 minutes<br /><br /><b>A/40</b> Assists per 40 minutes<br /><br /><b>TS%</b> True Shooting Percentage calculates what a player’s shooting percentage would be if we accounted for free throws and 3-pointers.
