    Was the hashtag in front of REALLY #REALLY necessary?? Also, there's a difference between hard-nosed basketball, and being a dirty, cheap-fouling punk. Barnes has never understood that difference.

    I can't stand looking at Matt Barnes, he just looks like trash. He may be a really nice guy for all I know, but for some reason I just cant stand the way he looks.

    Exactly! Barnes will always be remembered as a p***y, Rafer would've easily beaten his ass in the 2008 Suns game if nobody had interfered.

    He's right, though to his point, instead of the refs keeping him in check "back in the day" he would have gotten his ass kicked by a league full of tougher players back then for the crap he pulls.

    The only reason he has value is -because- the league is softer now.

    It's HILARIOUS that this dude complaining about floppers and softness when he plays with CP3 and Blake Griffin. Two notorious floppers and soft as cotton candy players.

    Actually, he would have more because he is stronger and faster then everybody else. That's STRONGER.

    NBA has evolved just like the culinary scene in the country. In other news, the sun will rise and I will pay taxes by April 15th.

    No doubt in my mind Lebron is an amazing player, if not the best in the league. It's absolutely hilarious to me when his 260 pound frame goes flying into a lane then he flops over after a 220 pound guard standing still bumps him over. For the entire game....smh. You see it on a lot in other games, but watching the Miami Heat is ridiculous sometimes.
