    We've brought much progress into the 21st century when leading figures can give you "Grab 'em by the p**ssy" and "Man hit tha sh** out dat n***a!"

    The victim's attorney claims to have the hospital records, marks on the victim, surveillance footage and witnesses. Slam dunk case if true.

    Are teams allowed to rip up contracts in these circumstances?

    I'm a Matt Barnes fan, and while I know I'm in the minority, Matt is a good guy. Seriously, during his time in PHX, I was able to have quite a few conversations with him, and he also invited me to a charity benefit.

    He plays a villain on the court, but that's part of the reason he's still in the league. He's an enforcer. Still, at his age, he puts together good games and is dependable.

    With that said, if he's guilty of all of these accusations, I'd be very disappointed. He seemed to be finally moving forward after the drama with Gloria/FlopFish. I'm sure he's worried about custody of his boys.

    The Kings would be smart to trade Cousins immediately before footage of this surfaces. It's almost certain he'll both get suspended and take a huge hit to his reputation.

    Original Source:
    [Graham Rayman -NEW YORK DAILY NEWS - Friday, December 9, 2016, 1:30 PM] NYPD closing in on arrest of NBA's Matt Barnes for allegedly assaulting woman at NYC nightclub
    "Jasmine Besiso, 26, and her boyfriend, Myrone Powell, 35, filed a federal lawsuit against Barnes and Cousins on Thursday. Besiso claims Barnes choked her into unconsciousness.
    Powell had two black eyes when he appeared at a press conference announcing the suit Thursday. His lawyer Michael Lamonsoff claims Cousins sucker-punched Powell in the side of his head. Powell was then stomped and hit by Barnes and other members of his entourage, according to the lawyer."

    More from the Sacramento Bee:

    [Ailene Voisin - Sacramento Bee - December 8, 2016 7:34 PM] Incident involving Barnes, Cousins an unnecessary distraction
    "Jasmine got up to leave to avoid the ruckus,” Lamonsoff said from his New York office, “and that’s when Barnes came over and choked her. Her boyfriend intervened and tried to stop Barnes, at which point he was sucker-punched by DeMarcus Cousins. Barnes and Cousins just started pummeling (Powell), and other members of their entourage joined in, beating and kicking my client while he was on the ground. While Jasmine and Myrone went to the hospital, Barnes and Cousins took off before the cops got there."

    Is it too soon to insert a "Is Matt Barnes gonna have to choke a b****??" Meme.

    Probably. I'll stay away from it.

    Maybe he can sit with the Larry O'Brien trophy during court. "Ah, shucks....case dismissed."
