Metta World Peace Says, “Harden Outsmarted Me, He Snuck Up Behind Me And Flopped”

Jason Whitney It’s no secret that Metta World Peace has needed his head examined for years now. I’m almost to the point where I think he’s purposely being outlandish as part of an act. A couple of weeks ago he blamed Jon Barry and Bill Walton for him not being able to get dates. He frequently mentions the elbow incident like it’s a joke. Even going so far...

World Peace’s Brother Wants a Piece of Jon Barry, ESPN

By now you’ve seen the brutal elbow Metta World Peace delivered to the back of James Harden’s head. While MWP and his brother insist it was accidental, they’re about the only people on the planet who believe that. Even gratuitous player slurper & blowhard, Stephen A. Smith doesn’t believe it was accidental. At halftime, after [...]

ESPN NBA analyst is part owner of the Dodgers

Nope, I'm not talking about Jon Barry. Of course it's Magic Johnson who was part of a group that bid a record 2 billion dollars for ownership of one of the MLB's most iconic franchises. It's a staggering sum of loot that highlights just how much of a business professional sports are these days and how insanely successful Magic has been in his post-NBA business ventures...

Video: ESPN Experts Discuss Rondo/Paul Trade

A little surprised that all four would do the trade (even without an extension). Jon Barry comes off pretty unknowledgeable basically implying that the C's would be fine with trading for Paul for a year and then him walking, because maybe they want to get rid of Rondo. Well a) They shouldn't want to get rid of Rondo. And b) if they do, they should never just dump him. Get...

Why does Jon Barry hate Heat, again? | (Video)

Can’t seem to remember the moment when the Heat did wrong by Jon Barry. Of course, don’t remember much about Barry’s NBA career in the first place, beyond his brother having a brief stint with the Heat. Then again, Brent Barry never got much of a shot under Pat Riley, so perhaps that’s it. Whatever. Jon Barry’s back on ESPN and back questioning the Heat...
