Matt Barnes jokes he needs a second job to pay all his fines
It's not just Marshawn Lynch who doesn't want to be fined. Matt Barnes feels the same way.
Barnes got docked $25,000 Tuesday for "directing inappropriate language toward a fan" and had to start thinking about ways to pay it.
I might need to find a second job with all these crazy tecs & fines. I Can see it now LA TIMES.. "Costco worker by day nba player by night"😂

Barnes also wanted to clear up that he wasn't cursing at a fan.

Barnes is making $3.4 million this year, so he'll probably have enough money to pay the league. But if he does have to find a day job he can tell everyone, "I'm just here because I got fined."
