Remember that time Matt Barnes allegedly drove from Santa Barbara to Los Angeles to confront Derek Fisher over his relationship with Gloria Govan, Barnes’ ex-wife?
Derek Fisher Has Had The Two Worst Weeks Ever
Pacers fans sure do.
The Grizzlies visited Bankers Life Fieldhouse on Thursday. Making his way to the free-throw line in the third quarter, Barnes was heckled by the crowd. Chants of “Derek Fisher” rained from the stands.
Derek Fisher Plotting Revenge Agaisnt Barnes
With Matt Barnes at the FT line, #pacers fans start chanting, "Der-ek Fish-er! Der-ek Fish-er!"

Much to the surprise of no one, Barnes finished 1-for-2 from the charity stripe during that sequence.
He did, however, manage to have the last laugh. The Grizzlies cruised to a 112-103 victory over the Pacers. Barnes finished with 10 points, three rebounds and three steals, enough to help Memphis capture its first win of the NBA season.
But nobody cares.
Wins and losses come and go, what Barnes was subjected to lives forever.

Matt Barnes needs to drive to wherever Derek Fisher is and tell him he can't continue to trot out that starting backcourt.

Unfortunately for Barnes, both he and Fisher will be married to each other for the remainder of the year. This type of behavior can be expected at every road stadium in the league. The social media-driven world we live in is an unforgiving one.
Fans won’t let him forget his transgressions anytime soon.
