Mavs coach Rick Carlisle didn’t express any concern when asked about Harrison Barnes’ poor preseason shooting.

“Shooting percentages have never been an important thing to me,” he said. “I look much more at the process, the force and conviction with which guys are stepping into shots.” Barnes has shot just 26.7 percent from the field during the preseason and averaged just 6.9 points. It is just preseason but this isn’t a good sign for the Mavs new max player. He currently has value in the later rounds.
