Possessiveness is an ugly thing.

On the other hand, estranged is not actually divorced. Tricky.
At least a goldfish with a Lincoln Log on its back goin' across your floor to your sock drawer has a miraculous connotation to it.

Barnes himself was publicly bragging about hooking up with Rihanna, so I don't think he gets to play the "we're not totally separated" card.

Matt Barnes is a different type of crazy.

Should have kept reading -- the divorce is impending (and was prior to this) so, no, he probably doesn't get that leeway.

Of course, since Fisher isn't pressing charges and this won't affect the NBA at all, it's kind of a fun gossipy thing but past that I'm not sure I'm all that emotionally invested. I think we all know some people of both sexes, but I think they're possessive gits.

If I'm Fisher my next move is to be seen everywhere in public with the ex

Sounds like a simple misunderstanding to me.

  • Be the posts you wish to see in the world.
Even before I read the evidence supporting this and had just seen the headline, I thought "that sounds about right on all fronts".

Besides our own C's upcoming season, PP34 and Doc in Clipperland, KG/Towns in Minny, Rondo/Boggie in SAC and the other myriad assortment of stories/side stories in the upcoming NBA season, I know this will be a GREAT one.

Additionally, we have Stephen A threatening KD, LOL.

Toss in a side order of crazy called Matt Barnes and I can't wait for the season to start. The drama is thickening and we've barely started the pre-season.

Except she came out and said "I've never actually met the dude" right after.  I think he's just kind of lost touch with reality

No, its the wrong Laker. You would need to change "Derek Fisher" to "Kobe Bryant".
