Matt Barnes, who played with the Suns in 2007, spoke about Sarver’s very poor attitude. According to the retired star, he and a 13 year old Suns fan were exchanging words talking trash to each other. Sarver, who was seated near by told Barnes, “Don’t talk to my f*cking fans.” The athlete did not appreciate what was said replied saying, “I’ll come slap the sh*t out of you in front of your wife.”

The NBA fined Matt Barnes $25,000 after being told on by either the owner or some else who had overheard the exchange. The former champion has openly admitted to hating Sarver and his poor attitude. After Sarver’s suspension was announced, Barnes believes the NBA should fire him as owner.

“I think Robert Sarver was a perfect candidate to get kicked out of the NBA, and I’m sure I’m not the only one that feels that way. Unfortunately, the NBA decided not to.”  Until further notice, the league has only given him a small price to pay.
