Matt Barnes Arrested on Felony Domestic Violence Charge
1-liner, Courts, Legal, NBA September 9th. 2010, 11:30amMatt Barnes: The hot-tempered small forward who played with the Magic last year but signed with the Lakers this offseason, was arrested yesterday afternoon in Sacramento on felony domestic violence charges. According to the Sacramento Bee, “After speaking to Barnes and the woman, deputies determined that the two had been in a physical confrontation and Barnes had prevented the woman from talking to 911 operators. Curran said dispatchers heard the sound of a struggle in the background on the brief open line until it was disconnected. Both parties had visible injuries but Barnes was determined to be the primary aggressor, Curran said.” After the arrest, Barnes tweeted. Then, he told a TV reporter, “I was the victim, but got arrested.”

Jason Smith doesn’t think Barnes did anything wrong.

Matt Barnes has street cred?

didn’t some outlet or another just run a piece yesterday saying that, combined, the nba and nfl average an arrest every 2 days?

you obvs missed the Matt Barnes-Kobe post. TBL called Barnes street or something close

If the woman turns out to be his destitute Grandmother, does that make it okay to be witty?

Matt Barnes has street cred?
according to this site, he’s the NBA’s most “street” player.

It’s a cool concept and cinematography. And the song is BA, too.

This video represents the first time I was attracted to Rhianna.

Yep, that’s my Quarterback.
September 9th, 2010 at 11:51 AM
Gotcha. Well, he should be fine. I’m pretty sure beating down on some chicks is SOP if you wanna be truly street.
September 9th, 2010 at 11:51 AM
@cleet- at least he is going to class

It’s hard to tell if that’s chest hair or tattoos.

cleet, be honest. Harris looks about 165 in that photo.
September 9th, 2010 at 11:55 AM
He’s always gonna be a skinny dude. Honestly he looks a little bigger than last year but I’m sure he is no more than a buck 70.
September 9th, 2010 at 11:56 AM
The have him listed at 200? I don’t think so.
September 9th, 2010 at 11:57 AM
Forget the overalls, where can I find that hat?

As a Lakers fan, I haven’t like Barnes and didn’t love the signing although he’s a decent ball-player. Between this and the alleged incident of him slapping a ref up this summer, he might be well on his way to getting let go.
September 9th, 2010 at 11:57 AM
Ha, what a joke. Miami’s website lists him as 200.
September 9th, 2010 at 11:58 AM
He is 6’4 but who knows if that is accurate if he is that tall he might be closer to 175/180 but no way he is 2 hundo.
September 9th, 2010 at 12:00 PM
That sounds about right, cleet.

Was it? I only heard briefly about it and nothing else. Either way, not good.

I think it was – either way it isn’t a good thing. Once is an accident, two is a coincidence, three is a trend.

I told my wife about the incident she told me the Lakers should just cut their losses with him before he drings his b.s. and drama during the season.

Russell Westbrook is putting in some serious work. Steph Curry isn’t exactly a defensive star.
