Derogatory nickname for James Harden of the Houston(Texas) Rockets in the National Basketball Association. Coined by Something Awful Forums user Brolander, who in a GDT (Game Day Thread) witnessed James Harden do some stupid contorted crap to try and get a foul on a three point shot attempt and expressed his disgust by calling Harden "you, you...Root Beer Barrel!" A reference to both the root beer flavoured hard candy and a literal barrel of root beer, it lampoons bullshit antics and barrelish chest shape. You can technically call someone else a RBB but you are still referring to James Harden, it is not a generic term for a foul-seeker or rule-abuser. It is not racist.
