Those kids have pretty good presence on the mic for being HS students.

Vagface is trying to intimidate a student announcer. Run that through your head.

Barnes is a bitch and all-around shitty dude.

Barnes was and still is a dirt bag. I wonder what his son will grow up to be like? Sad he's got a dad that a complete DF!

It does not say he was arrested when he put his hands on a kid and threatened him. Is that the privilege of being wealthy, or high yellow?

NBA players are the biggest pieces of shite in the country.

Lot of nba players associated with that game. Robert Horrys kid was on the winning team.

I don't care what he did or didn't say but the fact that he had no business being anywhere but in the bleachers says it all. Pure LeBron move.

What a fricking embarrassment.

I think Derek is the stepdad to Barnes' kid.

Berated?

Would've been great if that kid just leaned over and punch him in the nuts

Is that Derek fisher?

Camp Randall•25 months

What a weird deal. Derek Fisher is a high school coach now and he’s coaching Barnes son. Maybe Derek has a kid at the school too. They got smoked in that game either way. The non call on the flop was obviously correct and the Tech on Barnes son was also warranted.

It's weird seeing the same bunch of guys who whine all the time about the good old days and respect thunk it's okay for a student announcer to disrespect an elder and parent of a player his age. You guys can't even try to be consistent. Your stances change depending on the people involved

Regardless of what you think of the people who comment on the site, Barnes was wrong and since he decided to put his hands on a student at the school I doubt this issue is finished.
