Is Brent Barry available?

According to the Detroit News the Spurs aren't all that happy with Brent Barry. I find this hard to believe. If Brent is remotely available, John Nash needs to get on the phone now! 4 years at 20 mil is a steal for a shooter like him! Portland desperately needs a shooter.

"...Barry is intriguing. He just turned 33 and was signed to a four-year, $20.7 million deal by the Spurs this summer. That's not big money by today's standards, about average, actually.
Barry has been a disappointment thus far in San Antonio. He is one of the best three-point shooters in the league and a very good drive-and-dish type player -- which is something the Pistons need. But he has not been a great fit, for whatever reason, in the Spurs system.


He is actually the fifth perimeter guy in the rotation, behind Tony Parker, Manu Ginobili, Bruce Bowen and Slovenian rookie Beno Udrih. He has played fewer than 20 minutes in each of his last 15 games. He needs a change of scenery, so maybe there is a chance the Spurs would move him..."
