Carl Landry Takes Out a Laker Girl

Print... and not for a nice dinner.
Kelly Dwyer of BDL points out that it's dangerous to have so many unprotected people so close to the court with so many massive bodies flying around. I, for one, always cringe when players go leaping/stepping into/over rows of fans. Despite my team allegiances, I cringed on this one.
And on that note: what the efe are you doing, Matt Barnes? I know the Lakers and Kings go hard, even in the preseason; I remember Rick Fox getting taught a lesson by Doug Christie's fist and Shaq being assaulted by Jackie Christie's designer handbag. But seriously? Throwing a tied-up opponent out of bounds? Screw you, buddy.
(Wow, it took exactly one game as a Laker to tick off Kings fans. One game.)

You beat me to it (no pun intended)
Frankly, I’m a bit shocked that he didn’t sock up the cheerleader for being in his way. Also, doesn’t he know that only Jim Jackson can get away with the molester mustache?
I remember when
Barnes was a borderline college prospect / kid playing pick up games at Capital Christian’s Friday night open gym. You could tell he was a good kid who had good athletic ability and a solid head on his shoulders, as displayed when I intentionally fouled one of his buddies into the bleachers, after which he was very cool about, shrugging it off as part of the game and telling me “nice hustle, though…”
Anyways, I think he’s kind of fallen into this mentality over the last couple of years and its frustrating because I think he’s a better person than that. This type of display makes me wonder where his head is at lately, and what could have possibly changed him to be this way. Its one thing to f*%k with Kobe, (right?), but Carl Landry!? Matt, lose the chip son…

Funny you beat me to another way back when story...
I remember reffing a Summer League game at Del Campo high school and he kept dunking during the warm-ups which is a technical foul. I pulled him aside and said, “listen you are one of the best players in the gym, I appreciate your help in leading by example. You know you are not supposed to dunk the ball during warm ups and I don’t want to hear from the other coach that you should get a ‘T’.” He argued to me, “I am not touching the rim so it doesn’t count.” I told him just to stop doing it and he just gave me a dirty look and said “it was Summer League, so don’t worry about it.”
Later in the game, there was a play where he went to the rack out of control and there was some borderline contact but no foul call and he came yelling at me as we were running up the floor, “Where is my foul call, ref!” I quickly retorted, “It’s only Summer League, so don’t worry about it.”
That fall I was reffing football as a back judge and there was a play where Matt Barnes (who played Wide Receiver and Tight End for Del Campo) pushed the lil 5’8" corner out of the way to go up and catch the pass but he dropped the ball. Immediately he looked my direction not remembering our Summer League exchange and yelled “Where is my f$%king flag?!” I told him that he was the player that pushed off and if he did it again he would get his flag. He shook his head and trotted off back to the huddle.
The Coach Steve Kenyon was my high school coach back in the 80s and was a person whom I had a great deal of respect for so I went over to him and told him about the warning I gave Barnes and he nodded and said no problem.
A couple plays later Barnes ran a post route and blatantly arm barred the safety on his way up to catch the football and because he caught the ball by gaining an advantage, a couple of our flags came flying in. After double checking with the flank official I ran into the Referee and told him what I had. Knowing it was a big penalty I ran over to the sideline to tell the Coach what happened and could hear Barnes cussing at me for the call. Before I could report anything, Steve, yelled Shaffer, I saw the play, I don’t like the call but its the right call. Just make sure we get the same call. Then he yelled at Barnes saying, "The next time you don’t listen to the official(s) I am going to yank you out of the game. Barnes yelled back saying that I never said anything to him. Coach took him out of the game for that series.
I always watched Barnes, along his journey through the NBA and had mixed feelings because you want to root for a sactown story, but always knew him to be a spoiled brat/prima donna during his high school basketball and football days.
Sacto_J, the only reason why I can think he didn’t have much too say during your altercation is that he was a scrawny kid (albeit 6’7") and without his posse wasn’t about to puff on anyone tough.
Perception is strong and sight weak. In strategy it is important to see distant things as if they were close and to take a distanced view of close things.

Barnes has been a scumbag for a long time.
In 2002, Cal was whupping up on UCLA. With just over two minutes left in a game they were CLEARLY going to lose, Barnes gave a blind elbow/forearm to Cal guard Shantay Legans head. Legans laid on the floor for a couple of minutes completely unconscious. He suffered a concussion and missed his next game. Barnes was given the NCAA mandatory one game suspension. I swear, I thought the Hass (Cal) crowd was going to kill him.
He is a sleazy dude. Who cares if he is from Sacramento?
Wow I totally forgot about that
I wil say, if someone has the gall to get ink referring to themselves as “Sactown’s Finest” … let’s just say I wouldn’t be surprised if they were a bit of a punk.

Matt Barnes is still abusing the ladies
This time he purposely slams a King into a Laker girl. I’m thinking the anger management courses aren’t helping.

Let it go?
Honestly, out of all the comments you’re going to single out this one? Why? Because of the clear pattern that Phil Jackson has of getting players who get under the oppositions skin? I’m not saying that Phil Jackson told Barnes to do that, I’m not saying that it’s coached. I am saying that it is a distinct characteristic of his teams and, quite frankly, and effective aspect of his style. I despise the Lakers, but if the tables had been turned I would be just as critical of Barnes.

If Phil Jackson is clever enough to sign players that throw other teams' players off their games...
Well, maybe the other teams ought to try and sign guys like Carl Landry who won’t take the bait.
If your opponent’s tactics distract you, that is completely on you. This has nothing to do with Jackson, and everything to do with how Barnes plays. You were the one that brought Phil into this, and it’s been years since I read anything about how dirty, excuse me, aggressive, Jerry Sloan’s teams play. I suppose Popovich keeping Bowen on the roster all those seasons will probably come up the next time a Sacramento player trips over Tim Duncan’s leg and sprains a wrist.

I completely agree that teams need guys like Landry that have restraint. I honestly believe that the reason we lost to the Lakers in the WCF was because we allowed them, along with poor officiating, to get into our heads. It destroys a teams chances. Jerry Sloan is a tough man and you can see it in the physicality and sometimes dirty play of his teams. All I am saying is look at Jackson’s history of hot headed players. Not just the Lakers, but Phil Jackson coached teams. I give him credit for being a good strategist and motivator (dude has 11 rings) and part of that is that he has guys like Barnes or Fox to throw off teams that are susceptible to the mental aspect of the game. However, that doesn’t mean I have to like the strategy or act like it’s not a trend.

…the second his ink touched Laker contract paper, he died as far as I am concerned.
P.S. The title should read, Matt BARNES takes out Laker girl by throwing Landry out of bounds on top of her.
and Barnes didn't even get a technical
that shows the refs are still favoring the Lakers over the Kings.
Barnes is just
learning how to play like a laker.
I always liked Barnes
Until he signed with LA. C’mon man, don’t sink that low. He’s always had his questionable moments and everything, but I appreciated his obvious passion for what he does. But now…..ugh. It’s awful.
OK, and also, pretty much unrelated, but I cringe every time I hear “Laker girl”. I mean, god, how sexist can you get? They are not girls. They are women. Stop trivializing them. Ugh.
"That was the most offensive thing I have seen in 20 years of teaching and that includes an elementary school production of "Hair.""
I agree.
I liked the passion until he pulled an Arnold Benedict on us. It’s kind of awkward now, though, because I know his mom – she works at my dentist’s office. It’s hard to praise him now that he plays with the Lakers.
Screw that.
I was fine when Vlade became a laker again, same w/ Ron-Ron. It’s hard to praise hi because he’s charged W/ FELONY domestic violence. And because what he did to Carl there was a total dick move.
There are some things that dirty and sully everything and everybody they touch.

It gets even worse when you break it down by race. There’s an extremely unfortunate mentality amongst far too many people that the “default” human being is a straight white Christian male. Anyone who doesn’t fit that mold (and some who do, but who have mental or physical illness/disabilities, are poor, etc) is an “other”. It makes no sense.

Interesting
Obviously the only reason a woman would have issues with the lack of equality amongst men and women is that she “doesn’t have a man”. Yeah. Very original! I do happen to be single right now, but it was my choice. My boyfriend decided to teach English in China for 10+ months and while he wanted us to stay together I told him it made far more sense to “take a break” (hate that term, but whatever) and see where we are when he gets back. He might want to teach abroad again or he may want to stay here. Either way, we’ll figure it out when the time comes.
We had (and may possibly have again) a great relationship based on mutual respect and trust. Neither of us was “up on a pedestal” to the other. We’re both fully aware that as humans, neither of us are perfect and we WILL make mistakes.
So yeah… your awesome, sexist little remarks about how I must just be annoyed because I don’t have a man couldn’t be less true. I was just as into feminism when I was in a relationship as I am now.

But by no means is it the most pressing issue in the world. And I never said it was.
"That was the most offensive thing I have seen in 20 years of teaching and that includes an elementary school production of "Hair.""
Ironic, hypocritical, shortsighted
Are words that come to first thought when I see someone fighting against sexism, and complain about the trivialization of women, only to find that the complaint is regarding using “girl” instead of “women”.
There are legitimate remarks to be made of sexism on StR or sports as a whole. Bone-picking about something insignificant that goes both ways (how many times have you heard women call a group of guys “the boys”), is in fact trivializing the feminist movement. As a male with two younger sisters, nine younger female cousins, and the only boy (am I demeaning myself?) in the immediate family, I find your argument/statements to be a disservice to feminism and something I find important.
Bé foréwarnéd: I am a mémbér of StR Groupthink méntality.
Agreed with Cab.
It’s important to pick the fights that matter, and not trivialize things that have very little significance (including the women who are being called “girls” in this context) in the grand scheme of things.
I’ve said it before: Noone is equal to anyone. Therefore, equality is really a placebo. Equal Rights? Now, we’re talkin. But, the right to be called something “preferable”? Bleh, forget it. That will never happen.

65%
That’s the ratio of people on this board which I estimate would defend Barnes and rationalize a play like this had he been wearing a Kings jersey.
It was a shit move on Barnes part, and be advised, it has nothing to do with anything he may or not have been charged with over the summer, and less to do with where he signed to play basketball. Do you not understand capitalism? Laker money spends just fine, and apparently, they offered Barnes more of it than anyone else, including a team up north who could really use a solid defending shooter at the 2 & 3.
The holier-than-thou-ness on display here is nearly as bad as Barnes’ cheap shot. I commend Carl for keeping his cool, even if getting flung into the stands pales in comparison with getting shot in the leg.
I wonder which one of Phil Jackson’s guys pulled the trigger, DON’T YOU?

Are you seriously surprised that Kings fans (even StR regulars) would be unabashedly biased against everything Lakers?
As a player, if you join the Lakers, and you make a dick move against the Kings, guess what? You are going to get some deserved, AND some undeserved flack from StR. Big deal. 99% is in good fun, and Barnes’ attitude, and the team he signed with make him an easy target. Who cares.

Apparently they called a foul on Landry, though, which just infuriates me. Ugh.

I grew to hate Barnes after a whole season of watching him, it’s ridiculous how many times he makes these kinds of plays.
You think he just goes hard when you only see him a couple of times a year, maybe plays a little dirty. But the dude is constantly flying off the handle making dangerous, unprovoked plays like this.

I wouldn't say this particular play was unprovoked.
Before the scuffle, you can see Landry shove him out. Doesn’t seem like much, but I would consider his whipping Landry
to the ground caused by that. Still a douche move, though. Barnes is touchy.
Stay focused, and stay away from unknown females.
Perhaps its just my Kings-centric attitude,
but the part I don’t like is that in the video, and from what I have read of the discussion around the web, everyone (other than those in this post) seems to be talking about it as if Landry simply fell as a result of being innocently tangled up, not that he was thrown.
Bounce a ball into the stands, get ejected/fined/T’d up. Toss a player into a sideline dancer, get nothing. I don’t know if this deserves punishment outside of a technical, but it seems odd.
"The Kings have nothing to lose but their games."
My opinion
when guys are marginal rotation players, like Barnes, a lot of them resort to the enforcer roll if it helps them stay in the league. Examples, Fox and Horry,both got dirtier as theire talent grew less, (yes I know they’re both L****s but that’s not the point). Bruce Bowen (sp) also got dirtier each year.
There are some guys smarter than me, some guys better looking, I take comfort in the fact that there is no guy that is both.
Barnes has always been like this though
He led the league in flagrant fouls in 07-08.

Just because you’re from Sacramento doesn’t mean you deserve respect or admiration. A terrible person is a terrible person, and the way that this guy acts on and off the court indicates that he is terrible.
There’s a difference between being tough and making plays that were intended to injure the other player. This guy is a jerk, and I’m embarrassed to have him represent Sacramento in any way.

Aaron Rodgers went to my high school.

Of course, he’s a class act and much more known than Barnes, but ya know.

Why'd you put up a picture of Mom?
Do you know where she is? I haven’t heard from her in years. I miss her smile and killer personality.

Let's not forget a Halloween favorite;
Richard Chase (May 23, 1950 – December 26, 1980) earned the nickname “The Vampire of Sacramento” after brutally killing six people, including a child and an infant, then drank their blood and ate some of their organs.

I suppose the triple cocktail of homerism, hypersensitivity, and inferiority complex just doesn't pack the intoxicating punch it once did.
That and fighting the urge to assist people with grammatical problems, I guess.
I like our team. It will be better than the Lakers them exact moment that it is better than the Lakers. Until then, the Lakers will have a better ball club. There was a definite screw job back in 2002, but it has nothing to do with the current state of affairs with these two teams, or any of the other ones. Barnes got away with one, but that’s just bad officiating.

Oddly enough,
I have also had a dream where your dad gets beat up.
I have another dream where you say, “My dad can lick your dad,” and I say, “Oh, yeah? Your dad would probably like it!” Then the ice cream truck shows up and we get push-ups.

What did he do that makes you hate the guy so much.
A hard foul on Landry?
A diva in high school?
Is that so bad.
Help me out guys.
I don’t understand why he is so vilified.
Enlighten me.
Ray Caruth is from Sac and I think he is an evil guy for what he did.
A real piece of $hit.
Don’t get the wrong idea.
Asking and answering your own questions is a leading indicator of schizoid personality.
Either that, or you’re actually Donald Rumsfeld.
I suppose both could be true.

Can anyone tell what Matt Barnes said right before the clip ends?
It seems like it’s “______ bitch.” Maybe “stupid bitch”? His lips aren’t quite as easy to read as Tim Lincecum’s.
It looks like he said it in response to something Carl said. (Or maybe he was addressing the Laker Girl. One can never be too sure with Barnes.)

I can see that. You're probably right.

Lay off Landry
Just like every other Kings fan I was delighted to watch Barnes go off on Kobe last year, but the dude needs to chill out. Everyone would quickly point to Ron Artest as the craziest Laker, but it’s not even close. It’s Matt Barnes.
I Came, I Saw, I Conquered.
Looks like Matt Barnes is an ideal pickup for the Lakers
Has toughness, can shoot the 3, play some small ball, defend a couple of positions, doesn’t have to be the star but can occasionally throw up strong second fiddle numbers. Kind of like adding another Artest with a slightly different skill set to the mix.
"I know we certainly gave up a lot to get him, but we do have other players on the perimeter who we can plug in. We haven’t had anybody who we feel is a go-to guy in the post. So we gave up a lot to get a lot, and we’re real excited about adding Carl." - Paul Westphal
