		Barbosa was at his best in the win, and seems to fit more naturally into the team's rotation as a shooting guard, as opposed to playing the point, which he often does as Steve Nash's primary back-up.
		Barbosa does not get enough shots consistently to put up numbers on a nightly basis, but in deeper daily transaction leagues he is worth a roster spot as a utility guy that has the ability to produce on any given night.
		Barbosa (knee sprain) is out indefinitely after suffering a Grade 2 sprain to his knee similar to the one he got on Nov. 19, which caused him to miss three weeks, according to the Arizona Republic.

		Leandrinho, who played professionally for Bauru in Brazil, is taking the same route to the NBA that countryman Maybyner Nene Hilario took, signing with Cleveland-based agent Michael Coyne.
		On the court, Leandrinho is fierce and relentless, thanks in part to a brother, Arturo Barbosa, who reared Leandrinho in almost Tiger Woods fashion.
		When Leandrinho was 5, Arturo, who is 21 years older than his brother, put a basketball in Leandrinho's hands and began training him daily.

		Barbosa, or L.B. as he is known among fellow Suns, feels that the good showing in Indianapolis -- his first visit to the United States -- led to the success he is currently having with the Suns.
		Barbosa spent five years playing basketball at the highest level in Brazil and had established himself as a sharpshooter at the very start.
		Barbosa is happy to hear those words: "My coach here has been working that and I try to be the best I can be." Barbosa does not really have to say much, just look at his numbers.

		As I recall, I have always played basketball with athletes older than me. I believe Nene (baby) got his name from his family because he was the youngest.

		Since Barbosa is a guard, comparisons to Nene Hilario, the only Brazilian currently in the League, would be nonsensical.
		Barbosa might even slip out of the first round, just like Arenas did two drafts ago.
		Aside from Barbosa, forward Anderson Varejo, who has crazy Lenny Kravitz hair, and Tiago Spitter, who plays in Spain, are legitimate NBA prospects.

		The thing that has scouts buzzing is the speed at which Barbosa plays for someone his size.
		One Western Conference coach claims that he loves Barbosa, but he's afraid to draft him early because of the language barrier.
		However, it is interesting that this article points out that the language barrier is one of the biggest obstacles...I remember that being the same issue with Nene...but he sure seems to have proven them wrong....of course point guard is a much more communication driven position than forward.

	BasketballBoards.net - rumor of #4 for #13 and Swift
		Well, I doubt atlanta does that trade and Barbosa wont be available, and you have him as our fourth option as PG!
		Barbosa is only 4th option for his rookie year, then when Hunter and AW (c'mon, hes not the answer, trade him) are gone, then he'll step up into the starters role with Skip as a backup.
		Getting their #13 pick would also be great as point guards such as Ridnour, Gaines, and possibly Barbosa will still be available.
