“If I look at a ref funny, I'm getting a tech. If I say anything wrong ...” — Matt Barnes Quote

“If I look at a ref funny, I'm getting a tech. If I say anything wrong on the street, it's on Worldstar or TMZ.”

“I mean, don't get me wrong, being ref is a very tough job - managing 10 of the best athletes in the world. At the same time, I think there is way too much ego from their standpoint.”

“I was one of those guys that really had to fight to make it in this league. Early on, I really had to do whatever it took, whether it be fight, rough people up, to make the team. I looked at it as it's either me or them - and it was going to be me.”

“I feel like I've forcefully been thrust into the tech world, and I've enjoyed every minute of it.”

“Sometimes I speak out on women in tech issues.”

“My parents were always involved in community theatre, and I'd do the tech work and play the child.”
