Failed GA
I'm failing this GA for several reasons.


 * 1) First of all, the prose is horrible, it needs a very strong copyedit, and in some parts, rewrite (like the college section), grammar errors, many run-on sentences, unneeded words, some words need wikilinking for people who don't know much  it needs work.
 * 2) Make the lead around two paragraphs, and it's mentioned twice that he is the seventh player from Puerto Rico to play in the NBA in the lead alone, remove one.
 * 3) The current image is unsourced.
 * 4) Also the page should be moved to José Barea, per his NBA homepage. Thanks

There are other things to be fixed, but first work on the above. Too much prose issues for the hold. Thanks Jaranda wat's sup 17:14, 6 August 2007 (UTC)


 * That is not a reason to fail the article, I will renominate and add it to the GAC section of LOCE, besides that most of the people there don't have an article. The name part is BS, he is more widely know as José Juan in every latin nation that has seen him play in a tournament, actually I have never heard him being refered to as José Barea anywhere else beside the United States even the European announcers refer to him as José Juan. I will visit the island in a week to visit my family and will attend a cup where the national team will play so I will upload some self made images and renominate. --  Ca ri bb e a  n ~ H.
