What was this about? Supposely he responded to a picture Nick Young tweeted about our 16 championships by saying this.



Matt Barnes responded with this







Its just amazing how every and anybody in the NBA feels the need to attack the Laker franchise right now... Last thing I remember is the Clippers not winning a ring either. SMH what a joke!!

[Kilroy]

Sounds like someone's got small franchise disease...

[dAdo dA dEvil]

... now i'm glad that he never won a ring with us ... ^_^

[One Love]

Time for all the haters to voice their opinions... We won't be down for long... Out these paper clippings in your locker room fellas... Ain't no love...

[chefy]

I like matt barnes and i don't see anything wrong with what he said tbh. He's always loyal and will do anything for his team. He's the true definition of "you'll like him if his on your side, you'll hate him as an opponent"

[stunnar0b]

**** him

[hermes]

he's probably right

when your team is struggling you either look toward the future and hope things turn around or you look to the past when things were good to make yourself feel better

We might have more than 16 rings if Barnes actually showed up in the 2011 and 2012 playoffs.

[BEazy]

I hope Clippers do him wrong just like they did to Caron Butler.

Last time I checked, they were also kicked out in the first round. So I guess their best is equivalent to our nightmare season?

Edit: Fake account. Matt Barnes' twitter handle is Matt_Barnes22

Double Edit: T'was his Instagram account. My bad.

They showed this on the TWC Lakers channel. This is a legit account, This situation had nothing to do with him from the beginning. Nick didnt even say anything about him

[True_Laker_Fan]

Quite frankly I never did like Matt Barnes anyway even as a Laker, he was a nasty and ugly person, got into fights and played like a thug. Pretty much a piece of filth like the mayor of San Diego, Ca who insists he didn't realize there was anything wrong w ith trying to rape women in public

[MoMan24]

Last I checked both the Lakers and Clippers got eliminated in the first round and losing 4 straight. Also the year before they both lost in the second round so how the Clippers rule now confuses me.

[True_Laker_Fan]

The Clippers don't rule squat - lol, They merely think they are something because they have a good team for the first time in their history

[MAMBAEMD]

The condition exhibited by Barnes and other Laker-haters is called "Laker Envy"

[The Laker Kid]

he's just sour he's not a Laker anymore

[DEEP3CL]

That stuff is funny to me, him responding to regular Joe Blow just goes to show how insecure he is and their fan base. The Lakers have been around going on 70 years, yeah you have bumps and periods of stuck in the middle but they've always found their way back to the top.

I wouldn't worry about Barnes, dude ain't never had much of a real impact when it matters most........the playoffs.

[Marionettetc]

Barnes is a straight up bitch

[dAdo dA dEvil]

... it seems to me that former Orlando Magic players are still bitter that we beat them in the finals ... even after suiting up for Lakers ... (i.e. Howard and Barnes) ...

[leeprettyp]

This just comes off petty to me. How about taking shots at the Memphis team that just beat your team in the playoffs a year ago.
