Watch the owner of JJ Barea’s Puerto Rican Team punch a referee during a playoff game

During the offseason most NBA players take vacations, workout, or take scenic bike rides through the mountains—but not J.J. Barea. This summer Barea has been the coach of Indios de Mayaguez, one of the ten teams in Puerto Rico’s Baloncesto Superior Nacional.

Most people would assume that working for Mark Cuban has to be one of the most unique owner situations, but this recent playoff game proved Barea works for at least two eccentric owners.

On July 7th, Indios de Mayaguez was down 2-1 in their Quarter Final Playoff series against Santeros de Aguada, and tensions were running high.
