Has Eva Longoria found another basketball lover? Negative!

On Sunday, the New York Post's Page Six speculated that Longoria -- who divorced San Antonio Spurs' Tony Parker in late 2010 -- was getting romantic with L.A. Lakers Forward Matt Barnes.

The paper said that the Desperate Housewives actress, 36, seemed "very flirty" and had "a spark" with Barnes, 31, during a Thursday dinner in NYC with two pals.

Although the item included a statement from Longoria's rep that the pair were just "friends," Longoria didn't appreciate Page Six's speculation.

"First Jessica Simpson, now this," she wrote on her WhoSay page -- alluding to rampant chatter about Jessica Simpson's possible pregnancy. "Once again, press gets it wrong, Matt barnes and I are not dating!"

She added: "We are doing a charity event together for Padres and Athletes vs Cancer."

Indeed, Longoria is currently dating Eduardo Cruz, a singer and the younger brother of Penelope Cruz. The affectionate twosome first stepped out together on a yacht in Miami in February of this year.

    Sooo ... is she saying the press has gotten it wrong on the JS pregnancy "rumours" after the most recent pics of her looking like she swallowed a watermelon whole? And if that is what she's referring to ... isn't that a bigger insult to the general public than to the media/ paparazzi? After all, a picture speaks a 1000 words :/
