He's certainly going to try.

Matt Barnes talks a lot of shit for an NBA journeyman.

I don't think that shit would fly with LBJ.. He doesn't let shit get under his skin and I also don't think some of the other Cavs would just stand there as Matt Barnes "tries" to talk shit...

I mean, what are his teammates going to do? Punch him? Push him? Clobber him on a foul and get a flagrant and risk suspension?

NBA rules regarding this shit is straight pussy. In the olden days, Ron Artest would have devoured Matt Barnes' soul in a cannibalistic ritual at half court---and the Magic would have been awarded 2 foul shots.

^Pretty much agree. I havn't seen LBJ get too pissed. I don't think talking would do it. It would take some pretty physical and bush league stuff for him to get pissed. Z would be there in a heartbeat as he's shown before. As would some other guys.

Not exactly punch him or anything, but Z and Andy have been known to get in the face of the guy trying to mess with LBJ..

If it happened in the playoffs, I think Shaq would let him know how he felt, if Barnes drove to the basket..
