Image via WikipediaMaybe there is something in the weather? Maybe the true colors of these NBA bad boys (Artest, Barnes) are starting to seep through again? Maybe it's something about September that has the Lakers' new kids on the block getting into trouble.
First, Ron Artest having a run in with the Los Angeles Police Department and now Matt Barnes being arrested on alleged domestic violence may signify that the bad boys are back in LA.
Apparently, Matt Barnes is a bully on and off the court.
Barnes will likely receive a stern suspension and fine from the Commissioner of the NBA, no pun intended. There were around five suspensions and fines in the month of August. Will Artest be fined for his fast and the furious race car incident?
Two legal issues in the past week are not the best of ways to start off the 2010-11 NBA season. Looking forward, will these offseason mishaps have any effects on the defending back-to-back NBA Champion Los Angeles Lakers?
The Lakers head coach (Phil Jackson) is known for giving players a book to read at the start of the season; will Barnes' book have something to do with domestic violence?
Los Angeles is now a stacked deck of trouble makers and bullies.
