Philly Will Do That To You
Former Sixer Matt Barnes was interviewed by HoopsAddict.com:
HoopsAddict.com: You’re playing for a legendary Coach in the personage of Don Nelson. Describe the experience of playing for “Nellie”?
Matt Barnes: It has been a dream come true playing for Coach Nelson. I was in Philadelphia prior to coming to Dallas and I was thinking retirement. I was disrespected badly by Mo Cheeks while in Philadelphia and was contemplating pursuing a football career.
...
Matt Barnes: I had a bad experience with Mo Cheeks. No Coach ever talked to me in the matter and he did beat down my confidence. I was wondering if his view was how the league (NBA) thought about me.
Philadelphia! Where even professional atheletes making millions of dollars feel like nothings.

LOVE Matt Barnes! Reading this almost erased all my goodwill towards Mo Cheeks that I've had stored up since he bailed out that girl sing the national anthem. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q4880PJnO2E

I think last night puts to rest any doubts about little Matty's manhood. (That sounds funny... not quite what I meant.)
