The NBA was definitely NOT amused with the Matt Barnes vs. James Harden‘s mother smack talk session earlier this week … fining Barnes $ 50k for running his mouth during the game. 

Both Barnes and Harden’s mother admitted getting into it during the Clippers vs. Rockets playoff game on Wednesday … though neither side has revealed what specific insults were hurled. 

Now, the NBA says Barnes committed the cardinal sin of “directing inappropriate language at a fan” — and dinged him $ 50,000.

Neither Harden nor his mother have been punished by the league.
