Things haven't been going well for the estranged couple of Matt Barnes and his wife, Basketball Wives star Gloria Govan; but now it seems that the NBA star has been taking a lot of heat from fans and social media bullies after he was fined $25,000 during the recent L.A. Clippers and Phoenix Suns game.
If you don't know, or didn't watch the game, Barnes went off on a spectator in the crowd, and was fined for "inappropriate language toward a fan."
According to The Shade Room, Barnes cursed at an owner after he was being cursed at first, if you read all of his ranting tweets this week. Barnes apparently has been fined a total of $50,000 this month alone!
Another 25k! The part of the story the nba hasn't told you was my language wasnt directed at a fan, I was talkn to the owner of the Suns....

Now Barnes has something to say to all of his bullies after he bullied a fan, well owner.
Barnes captioned the photo below:
"Yall really think you know me, but to keep it real you hv no clue...! Just know whether you hate me or love me....... I'm always gonna land on my feet.. I love all my fans, the fans that appreciate & respect the hard work & time we put in, all the school plays & sporting events we miss out on in our children's lives.. We get paid well, but we are still human just like you.. We can't call into work when we're sick, we hv to play, when we lose family members we don't hv time to morn, we hv to play, when we lose our families & don't get to see our kids for days at a time, we can't go hide & cry, we get paid to entertain, so we get on that court ... My life is played out in front of the world.. My life is your entertainment, you see shit on blogs & tv & think you know the whole story.. Shit, by the way yall pass judgment & comment you would think you were there.. SO MANY CRITICS WITH NO CREDENTIALS! But what HAS ALWAYS KEEP THAT FIRE INSIDE OF ME BURNIN & THAT FUCKN DOGG YOU SEE ON THE COURT, is EVERYONE who says I CANT!! ASK KOBE,CP OR BG WHO THEY GOIN 2 WAR WITH?? BET IM ON THAT LIST! "
He wasn't finished- he adds: "Yet yall sit on social media passing judgment or the reporters, some who couldn't even lace up a pair of shoes let alone run up & down the court has the nerve to tell US wat we're not good at!! That's kinda always made me laugh.. Smh! Next time you try & pass judgment make sure you know the person, or you have all the information for the situation, because I guarantee 9 out of 10 times you don't know the person or you only know half the story... In a world driven by attention & hate I'm scared to death of what the future holds for my kids, yes my kids will live a good life, because I worked my ass off for that, but how can I look Isaiah & Carter in the eyes & tell them based on the fact you are BLACK ITALIAN & MEXICAN people with HATE YOU for that reason alone, cops will PROFILE YOU for that REASON ALONE, you may not get a JOB, for that reason alone.... YOU THINK YOU KNOW ME....You know Matt Barnes the basketball player, the Matt Barnes the media wants you to know.. You don't know MATT BARNES the MAN, MATT BARNES THE FATHER! #YOUTHINKYOUKNOWME!"
