Derek Fisher recently gave a bizarre interview in which he says he doesn’t care if the drama with Matt Barnes is costing him coaching opportunities.  Barnes reacted to Fisher’s comments and also decided to tell the real story about what occurred between them and Barnes former wife, Gloria Govan, who is still in a relationship with Fisher. 

Matt Barnes recently appeared on Hollywood Unlocked and discussed a multitude of things he’s been in the headlines for.  One topic was the Rihanna situation.  Barnes admitted to dating the superstar but Rihanna denied even knowing him.  Matt was very coy but addressed the situation.  Another topic was the infamous fight with Derek Fisher over Barnes ex-wife Gloria Govan.  Barnes says he and Fisher were closer than Derek portrayed to the media and he was angry with the way they went about everything.  Barnes also discusses how the NBA likes to label him as the villain.

On the same day Matt Barnes tried to fight John Henson from the Bucks, another player he tried to fight wasn’t having a care in the world while taking pictures with Barnes ex, Gloria Govan. Her and Derek Fisher had no issue being in public together and showing lots of PDA while being out and about in Los Angeles yesterday. Since Fisher was fired by the Knicks he has more free time to spend with her while simultaneously keeping his head on a swivel looking for Barnes. Check the gallery!
