    If Joe Crawford can threaten to kick a fan out of the game for cheering too loud (drunk OTC dude in the front row with the button-up) then it should go both ways.

    I forgot OTC was in town. Was wondering why I saw a bunch of scattered blue oxford button-ups in the club seats.

    Yeah, I hate that guy. The instant you see him, you know he's a sleazy thug. As others have said, put Dorsey in there for one or two plays until he can deliver a playoff-ending Flagrant II to that little twerp. We obviously don't need Dorsey if he gets suspended, so let him go do something useful. The NBA likes suspending our players, so let's just make their job easy.

    For those calling Barnes a "thug" - make sure you put "fake" in front off it.

    In fact just take thug out all together, a more apt description is "fake tough guy" or "punk b****"

    Lotsa guys I like who aren't Rox. Some guys I can't wait to see out of the Association. Thug Barnes is very high on that list!

    I want to Win and I want to like the guys representing. If Doc could have unloaded him for two minimum guys he would have, and tried last off season.

    Yeah, that is Steve Trauber. Created Houston Hoops (AAU team that Justise Winslow played on) and has had those seats for years. He is the Head of Investment Banking at Citigroup

    I'm all for Dorsey getting five minutes and six hard hack a Barnes. And I hope for each one, he stands over Barnes doing the Degeneration X crotch chop.


    I'd donate some money towards his fine if he did this.

    Just mind games. Really low cowardly version, but still, just mind games. he thinks he can play this better than Harden. We'll see.

    If Harden gets distracted by this mom stuff and focuses more on Barnes than the task at hand (torching Barnes and everyone else with smart, hard-nosed plays), then Barnes has won.

    What a low, low piece of filth though. How as a coach do you not sit a guy down and talk to him after that? I definitely wouldn't want a Rocket to talk that way to anybody's mother.

    EDIT: yes, I had to think about it... but even John Stockton's mother.

    It's true. 100%.

    But Barnes, being the idiot thug that he is, may have just given the Rockets the little extra motivation they needed. This actually could be the best thing to happen to our team in a while. We'll see.

    I still think Barnes needs to be fouled hard many times tomorrow night.

    Barnes' goal in this series is to get Harden ejected or suspended. It's blatantly obvious. He will stoop to whatever lows to get there.

    If the league can prove it (should be several witnesses) I think this is something that should be a major fine or suspension that should backfire.

    This series has enough backlash to begin with. The league would be stupid to not get out front and say enough Matt Barnes. The guy is a sh$& player who models bush league tactics that will continue to be emulated by people who want to find a role on a team and know they aren't talented enough to survive otherwise.

    And shame on Reggie Miller for actually praising this role on national TV. He should be punished for promoting that type of nonsense that has no place in sports.

    It's sad, either the Clips don't respect a team that had an identical record, or they are scared. Either way, they didn't pull this crap against San Antonio. This is our advantage, we need to probe it more.

    Seriously, he was praising him for doing the "dirty work," more like "dirty stuff." Reggie was driving me crazy last night. And I couldnt watch halftime, I just knew they would be trashing us.
