Matt Barnes came to the aid of teammates during a scuffle in last night’s game against the Thunder—he was ejected as a result. Barnes was still heated about the incident in the locker room and sent out this tweet.

Unsurprisingly, the tweet was deleted. Here’s the incident that ruffled his feathers.
You could argue that Barnes escalated the situation with his shove. And yet, that still doesn’t explain the remark about his teammates. Perhaps there’s something deeper going on or perhaps, Barnes is just a hot head.
Yeah, that seems like a more plausible explanation.
