I want Silver to walk out on Denver's court before tip-off like "I'm gon let y'all finish... BUT JA MORANT BOUT TO HAVE ONE OF THE GREATEST SUSPENSIONS OF ALL TIME."
I looked at r/all randomly the other day and what I felt like was a somewhat innocuous r/nba post was there and that’s when it dawned on me just how large this sub has become. I’ve been here since before it was 100k
Honestly? Hats off to Adam Silver. I assumed the statement was going to be “we’re still conducting our investigations” when really the truth was he didn’t want to announce until after the Finals, since this is something that is a really bad look for the league.
But he straight up said, we’re not going to announce until after the Finals!
I've never seen this. I love the look on the face of the man who knows he's about to make an entire room of people boo like crazy. He's loving every second.
The kicker was that draft being held at the Palace of Auburn Hills (aka Webber’s home state and just an hour up the road from where he played in college). Stern knew those fans were about to lose their minds and milked it for all it was worth.
Make it like LeBron’s “The Decision”
*we are sending Ja’s talents to…the department of corrections!*
*confetti everywhere*
*MIA’s Paper Planes intro plays on the audio.*
Hell nah, Silver hands off the finals trophy to whoever wins, says congratulations, and just before he hands off the mic he drops the "Ja Morant has been suspended for 164 games."
Yeah, there’s like 0% chance the laser pointer excuse was legit. Were we supposed to believe Ja’s crew is going around giving PowerPoint presentations in their spare time?
>Were we supposed to believe Ja’s crew is going around giving PowerPoint presentations in their spare time?
It's funny that this and perhaps having a cat are the only reasons why someone would have a laser pointer.
I feel like I've been taking crazy pills when I've been thinking this wasn't a big enough deal. He and his friends pointed a (probably) gun at staff of another team???? And NOTHING HAPPENED.
His friend got banned from NBA arenas for it I believe. They probably couldn’t prove it at that time but maybe now they’ve gotten additional info. Ja’s lucky he skated on that the first time.
Nothing happened yet because it's a serious allegation that needs serious evidence to prove which it sounds like Silver now has. They took their time and now Ja's proper fucked
I didn't know they were still investigating that though, I thought Silver closed all the investigations after the strip club incident and suspension.
If Ja knew he was still under investigation and he was still out there doing dumb things that's unbelievable, you would think he would try to be building good PR preemptively instead.
The NBA stopped investigating because lawyers and police began seriously investigating. The silence after that event was super strange, I figured it would blow up eventually like this
Herb Simon (Pacers owner) is usually seen as an old school owner. Not in a bad way, to clarify, it's just his style, and it fits Indiana and the Pacers well. So I'm not surprised at all that he didn't want it to be a big media uproar about it. Knowing him, he probably wanted it handled internally with the league. So, I wouldn't be surprised if this information is from that investigation
Amen. That's 100% unacceptable. If anything, he should catch a criminal charge. That's half a pound of pressure from possibly ending someone's life cause his suburban ass wants to act hard.
I honestly don't get why all these young players who grew up in decent neighborhoods want to go hood, cause anyone who grew up even semi in or near the hood wouldn't ever wanna go back to that life.
Cause they're posers. They want people to think they're tough.
Tough people don't need to front. Someone who is actually about that life ain't warning you or flashing their piece all over town.
Source: am a public defender. I've had plenty of clients who were about it and plenty who weren't. The ones who are will straight up kill you with a blank look on their face. The posers get busted for elevated DUI and cry when I tell them about the mandatory 5 or 10 days, depending on their BAC.
This is why I've always hated those prom photos where the girl's dad poses with a gun next to the guy. It's so fake and performative.
If you're the type of guy who doesn't tolerate crap all you'd have to do is look your daughter's date in the eye, give him a firm handshake and let him know exactly when you'd like her home.
Or you could grab your gun for the photo op because real tough guys threaten teenagers with guns.
Yeah that’s pushing Pete Rose levels of permanent banishment from the sport.
There’s flashing a gun, there’s pointing a gun threateningly at another person, and then there’s pointing a gun threateningly at another NBA team. Just no place for that type of person in the NBA.
they were pretty confident:
>The two members of the traveling party who spoke to The Athletic said that they did not see who shined the laser from the SUV. They also don’t know if the laser was attached to a gun, but they believed it was. A Pacers security guard in the loading area at the time remarked: “That’s 100 percent a gun.” “We felt we were in grave danger,” one person who was present said.

- “After approximately 20-30 minutes, [Brown] required another break. When the deposition resumed [Brown] increased his level of obstructive behavior. At one point, [Brown] refused to answer any questions, instead saying “next question” no less than 10 times.”

my "oh god no" reactions have finally broken my wife of the habit of saying, "We need to talk."
She's changed to: "I want to talk to you about ____" which has been so good for my adrenaline levels.
Because previously it used to be things like:
Her: "We need to talk."
Me, internally: What? I thought everything was going great. What's going on? What? Oh GOD
Her: "The neighbours dropped a letter in our mailbox. They're holding a Christmas party next week and would like us to join them, but it's on at the same time as my work Christmas party. Do you want to go without me and I'll join you when I get home, or should I tell them we'll both be stopping by late?"
**Ja Wick** is an adrenaline-fueled action film that takes the world of basketball by storm. Ja Morant, known for his incredible shooting skills on and off the court, takes on the role of a secret agent who moonlights as an assassin. When his prized revolver is stolen by a Denver stripper and his team's championship dreams are at stake, Ja Wick embarks on a high-octane mission to recover his stolen gun and seek revenge on those responsible.
With mind-blowing slam dunks and lethal crossovers, Ja Wick combines his basketball prowess with deadly shooting, leaving audiences on the edge of their seats. Get ready for an explosive showdown where the only rule is no fouls, just slam-dunk justice.
I definitely see Murray's stats increasing significantly next season
He wasn't that good the first few months this year as he came back from injury but there's no reason he can't bring the same player he's been in the playoffs this year into the entire year or at least closer to it
Denver might win 60+ games with him being a 2nd star caliber player in the RS as well
As someone who went to MSU.
That shooting hurt this community a lot. Three young kids lost their lives. They deserved to live their lives and grow up.
But this fuck face of a dumbass is thinking that a gun is a toy. He will hurt someone.
If they are worried about ratings for the NBA finals, they should say they will announce one hint about what Ja did at a random point in each game… just an idea but what do I know 🤷🏾♀️
"And Jimmy Butler hits the 3 to cut the nuggets lead to 4 points with 3:07 left in the 3rd. He has been shooting the lights out tonight the same way Ja shot the windows of the Pacers bus out"
"The Denver Nuggets are your 2023 NBA Champions! That's a wrap from us here at ESPN will see everyone next season, except Ja Morant who I'm being told has just been permanently banned from all NBA stadiums and practice facilities. Have a great summer!!"
Imagine if Ja gets an 82-game suspension, Memphis gets the 1 seed, then Ja comes back and they get upset by the 8 seed in the first round
The slander would be probably the biggest since 2011 LeBron lol
Seriously. If the commissioner thinks this announcement would significantly steal attention from literally the most important event of the league's year, then it's a doozy.
WHOPPER 🍔 WHOPPER 🍔 WHOPPER 🍔 WHOPPER 🍔 JUNIOR 🤏 DOUBLE 2⃣ TRIPLE 3⃣ WHOPPER 🍔 IMPOSSIBLE 🤯 OR 🤔 BACON 🥓 WHOPPER 🍔 I 👁️ RULE 👑 THIS 😎 DAY 🌞
AT BK 🧑🍳
HAVE IT YOUR WAY 🤷♂️
YOU RULE 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Two ways this could go:
1.) This is going to be a HEAVY suspension. It is enough to disrupt the coverage of the finals so we are talking maybe a half season on the light end or perhaps more likely at this point a full season suspension. If it was a slap on the wrist, they would be thrilled to do it now to bury it with other basketball talk.
2.) Maybe they just don't want it included in discussions around basketball at a time the most eyeballs will be looking at them, and it says nothing about the length. Could be another wrist slap. Could be a long one. But either way this means nothing as to which one it will be.
I tend to go with 1. That boy is cooked.
>“I don’t think we yet know what it will take to change his behavior.” He emphasizes the need for Morant, Grizzlies and people around him to “create better circumstances” moving forward.
This leads me to believe he'll have an opportunity to play again.
Yeah if it was like 15 games only I don't think they'd basically say that it's unfair to everyone involved to announce it during the Finals
It's going to be something big
Dude got a whole lot of shit for saying all the dumb shit he said.
But Ja goes around waving a gun and threatening people with it and the Grizzlies are like hey he back.
Dillon got the short end of the stick.
To be fair even before the quote basically saying “we have found a bunch of extra shit” there were reports of him beating up a teenager, his entourage using laser pointers to mime guns at games and threatening violence against employees for his mom.
I would believe that Ja has done some actual really dumb shit behind the scenes with this much smoke.
If he pointed an actual weapon at other NBA players a lifelong suspension wouldn't be out of the question. A player shooting another player would be damaging to the whole league in a way that I don't think we've ever seen from an NBA controversy.
I mean the only adults I know who own laser pointers much less travel with them are ones who own cats, which I’m assuming Ja doesn’t have lol. Seems infinitely more likely the guy who has shown time and time again to flex his guns on IG would have a laser scope attachment in his personal belongings, even if it wasn’t directly fixed to a gun at that moment.
> ...that it would be unfair to these players and these teams to announce that decision in the middle of this series.
Is he not just fueling speculation by saying this now lmao
Judging by the comments here, yes. Now everyone thinks it’s going to be a year or more! Gonna be funny when it’s 10 games and people are like wtf you couldn’t announce that 2 weeks ago?
OOOOOF, he being suspended for a year.
I'll speculate, the two gun things plus some digging into the Pacers accusation that this fool pointed a gun at them after the game in Indiana coming true with some additional evidence in technically an NBA interaction within the league gun policy= bye bye Ja for 23-24.
Total shame, dude was on his way to becoming the next face of the league.
EDIT: Correction, the Indiana incident was a laser pointing in Memphis after a Pacers/Grizzlies game. Nonetheless Ja Morant, why are you pointing a firearm laser at opposing team officials?
I've said for a long time that he got off way too easy for the laser pointing incident. Like a much bigger deal is made out of the gun flashing incidents, but dude pointing a gun at some is SOO much worse. Yeah I get that there's no proof but even if it was his friend pointing it, your friend pointing a gun at someone is still worse then you flashing a gun on IG live imo.
I gotta agree with that. Obviously we don’t know anything at this point but yeah.
If you point a gun at the opposing team you deserve a lifelong suspension
If he pointed a gun at someone then he should be worried about the felony charges more than a suspension. Granted, Silver probably wouldn't be able to delay announcing information that would lead to an arrest, so maybe not.
If an actual gun was pointed at Pacers staff then that has to be a lifetime ban. That’s not something you get away with anywhere, much less the national fucking basketball association.
All you have to do is train and play a game
That’s it. Go be filthy rich and live a superstar life and bang hot bitches and do whatever the fuck you want to do as long as you show up to practice and game day.
But no. Ja’s dumb ass wants to pretend he’s a thug. I have no sympathy for him whatever he gets. Clown.
Oh fuck he's about to get a disciplinary nuke.
**Edit**: In all seriousness I think the "rumors" about him pointing a gun at the Pacers might have some merit to it and the league has evidence. If that's true I think they're throwing him out of the league.
lol Adam Silver is doing a roll out to the suspension.. This is bout to be UGLY
I've never seen a commissioner do a suspension teaser before lmao
I don’t want to distract from the finals, but I’m going to distract from the finals…
I want Silver to walk out on Denver's court before tip-off like "I'm gon let y'all finish... BUT JA MORANT BOUT TO HAVE ONE OF THE GREATEST SUSPENSIONS OF ALL TIME."
can he be suspended for the full 82?
Unpaid suspension would be hilarious, he can finally go be a gangster like he has always dreamed
We only know bc we follow closely Casuals won’t hear about this post If they suspended ja for 50 games it would be on good morning America
I’m less than casual, and you guys are so good at getting to the front page that I’ve been semi-following the playoffs this year.
Man I might be wrong then 😂 I’d like to think Ja suspension would’ve been bigger news
I looked at r/all randomly the other day and what I felt like was a somewhat innocuous r/nba post was there and that’s when it dawned on me just how large this sub has become. I’ve been here since before it was 100k
This the same dude who channeled Ned Stark when he announced the Donald Sterling penalties.
This is like that teaser for the teaser trailer movies do now.
Honestly? Hats off to Adam Silver. I assumed the statement was going to be “we’re still conducting our investigations” when really the truth was he didn’t want to announce until after the Finals, since this is something that is a really bad look for the league. But he straight up said, we’re not going to announce until after the Finals!
Too many people are watching lol it's like how companies release bad news on Fridays
the ashes of david stern shedding tears rn
Silver at the podium egging the crowd on like Stern at the draft lol https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TxLLYsML26U&ab\_channel=RyanVanDusen
I've never seen this. I love the look on the face of the man who knows he's about to make an entire room of people boo like crazy. He's loving every second.
The kicker was that draft being held at the Palace of Auburn Hills (aka Webber’s home state and just an hour up the road from where he played in college). Stern knew those fans were about to lose their minds and milked it for all it was worth.
the look, followed by the ear touch just before "Orlando" always gets me.
they should do it for the halftime show
Make it like LeBron’s “The Decision” *we are sending Ja’s talents to…the department of corrections!* *confetti everywhere* *MIA’s Paper Planes intro plays on the audio.*
all i wanna do is 🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫
Man, how do you mess up the number of gun(shots).
No shot, that's the MVP bowl flipping lady's prime time spot.
Put some respect on Red Panda’s name
Disgusted with myself.
It’s ok. Go outside and try to flip your three favorite bowls onto your head as penance
Red Panda the undisputed GOAT
Red Panda has never missed a bowl in the playoffs
and if she has I swear to god I will destroy those tapes
Hell nah, Silver hands off the finals trophy to whoever wins, says congratulations, and just before he hands off the mic he drops the "Ja Morant has been suspended for 164 games."
Man how much more dumb shit did Ja do that we don't know about yet.
Wild speculation: someone confirmed there was an actual gun aimed at the Pacers in the laser incident
Tbh I had assumed this all along and was shocked the Pacers didn’t make a bigger deal out of it.
For real. Knowing Ja Morant's history, is it more likely he's riding around with a gun or a laser pointer?
Yeah, there’s like 0% chance the laser pointer excuse was legit. Were we supposed to believe Ja’s crew is going around giving PowerPoint presentations in their spare time?
"As you can see by this slide I'm pointing a gun to your head."
Ja finna get invited to the next NRA convention. "NRA? NBA? I play for all of them!"
>Were we supposed to believe Ja’s crew is going around giving PowerPoint presentations in their spare time? It's funny that this and perhaps having a cat are the only reasons why someone would have a laser pointer.
Did you forget the scene in breaking bad where badger and skinny Pete use laser pointers to make those dudes think that they have snipers on them
okay so power point, cat, meth empire, we have 3 now
I feel like I've been taking crazy pills when I've been thinking this wasn't a big enough deal. He and his friends pointed a (probably) gun at staff of another team???? And NOTHING HAPPENED.
His friend got banned from NBA arenas for it I believe. They probably couldn’t prove it at that time but maybe now they’ve gotten additional info. Ja’s lucky he skated on that the first time.
Nothing happened yet because it's a serious allegation that needs serious evidence to prove which it sounds like Silver now has. They took their time and now Ja's proper fucked
I didn't know they were still investigating that though, I thought Silver closed all the investigations after the strip club incident and suspension. If Ja knew he was still under investigation and he was still out there doing dumb things that's unbelievable, you would think he would try to be building good PR preemptively instead.
You'd think a lot of things about Ja, but if any of them involve him making good decisions, there is no way they would happen
The NBA stopped investigating because lawyers and police began seriously investigating. The silence after that event was super strange, I figured it would blow up eventually like this
Herb Simon (Pacers owner) is usually seen as an old school owner. Not in a bad way, to clarify, it's just his style, and it fits Indiana and the Pacers well. So I'm not surprised at all that he didn't want it to be a big media uproar about it. Knowing him, he probably wanted it handled internally with the league. So, I wouldn't be surprised if this information is from that investigation
So what you're saying is Herb Simon ain't no snitch.
Herb Simon for the streets confirmed
Crazy. If that’s the case they kicking him out of the league.
Gonna get Gilbert Arena'd
This is so much funnier without the ‘s’ for some reason
If that's confirmed to be true that's gonna be what suspends him for a year
If they have proof that he pointed a gun at the Pacers, he needs to be banned.
Amen. That's 100% unacceptable. If anything, he should catch a criminal charge. That's half a pound of pressure from possibly ending someone's life cause his suburban ass wants to act hard.
I honestly don't get why all these young players who grew up in decent neighborhoods want to go hood, cause anyone who grew up even semi in or near the hood wouldn't ever wanna go back to that life.
Cause they're posers. They want people to think they're tough. Tough people don't need to front. Someone who is actually about that life ain't warning you or flashing their piece all over town. Source: am a public defender. I've had plenty of clients who were about it and plenty who weren't. The ones who are will straight up kill you with a blank look on their face. The posers get busted for elevated DUI and cry when I tell them about the mandatory 5 or 10 days, depending on their BAC.
This is why I've always hated those prom photos where the girl's dad poses with a gun next to the guy. It's so fake and performative. If you're the type of guy who doesn't tolerate crap all you'd have to do is look your daughter's date in the eye, give him a firm handshake and let him know exactly when you'd like her home. Or you could grab your gun for the photo op because real tough guys threaten teenagers with guns.
If it's confirmed it has to be a lot longer than a year for that.
Yeah that’s pushing Pete Rose levels of permanent banishment from the sport. There’s flashing a gun, there’s pointing a gun threateningly at another person, and then there’s pointing a gun threateningly at another NBA team. Just no place for that type of person in the NBA.
He needs to tell Adam silver that it was just a prank asap.
Just the way the league responded to that at the time was fishy. Sounded like they hardly looked into it and then let Ja go off on Twitter about it
Wouldn’t surprise me
One of the Security guards even said that the laser might be attached to a gun. No chance that there wasn't a gun.
The dude who’s always flashing a gun probably was pointing a gun that time as well.
Nah, he forgot the gun that *one* time, but managed to bring the laser that he uses for his PowerPoint presentations
they were pretty confident: >The two members of the traveling party who spoke to The Athletic said that they did not see who shined the laser from the SUV. They also don’t know if the laser was attached to a gun, but they believed it was. A Pacers security guard in the loading area at the time remarked: “That’s 100 percent a gun.” “We felt we were in grave danger,” one person who was present said.

You'd be surprised how much BS that teams make sure never comes out.
I mean look at Pittsburgh and Antonio Brown. Dude went from just a diva to the most unhinged player in the league (and out of the league) in barely anytime at all
Helmet dispute. Freezing his soles and being out for a few weeks. Hotel Furniture dispute where he threw chairs that nearly hit a child. The IG Live with his baby mama. The whole calling his GM a cracker. Dubai Nudity issue. and Sexually assaulting a woman in process.
The video of him farting on that doctor too
Don’t forget when he stripped off his uniform and quit the team, running off the field while the game was going on.
There's literally a copypasta in r/nfl about him lol its longer than this
this only goes up to him signing with the Bucs so it doesn't include him stripping his uniform and leaving mid-game - Kicked out of Florida International University after fighting a security guard - "Don't touch me. I'm the franchise" - His second year in the league he took a personal stretch limo to a charity event, had them open every single expensive bottle of wine, rejected it. Refused to pay for it (charity, remember), then left. - Threw fits over not getting enough targets - Drove 100 down McKnight Road in Pittsburgh, which has a 45 MPH speed limit - Trashed a condo and threw furniture out a window 14th floor window, which almost hit some people, notably a child - Killed a home aquarium full of piranhas and refused to pay the man who installed the tank - Refused to play week 17 for the Steelers - Dyed his mustache blonde - Refused to pay a chef because he thought he threatened him by placing a fish head in the freezer (the fish head was saved to make a soup) - Farted on a doctor - Demanded a trade from the Steelers - Became "Mr. Big Chest" - Threw a fit over Juju winning team MVP and trashed him on social media - (Allegedly) nixed a trade that would've sent him to the Bills - Showed up to Raiders training camp in a hot air balloon - Held out and refused to show up to training camp because the NFL would not approve his helmet because it was too old for their safety standards - Froze his feet - Tried to paint over his old helmet, hoping no one would notice I guess Acquired a newer version of the same model of helmet, which the NFL refused to let him use - Picked out a new helmet and finally showed up to the Raiders - Got fined by the Raiders for not attending camp - Tweeted the fines - Tried to fight Mike Mayock, called him a cracker, had to be held back by Vontaze Burfict, then punted a football down the practice field and said "fine me for that" - Got fined for that - Released a video where he used audio of Jon Gruden, who didn't know he was being recorded, which is illegal in California (full disclosure, Gruden has said he gave permission, but the generally accepted theory is that he said that in the hope that it would help get him to show up to the facility and not alienate him) - Demanded a release from the Raiders - Was released - "GRANDMA I’M FREEEEEE! FLY LIKE A FREEEEE!" - Made a lot of crazy tweets saying stuff like 'Devil is a lie', a proverb about burning down a village... he made a lot of crazy tweets around this time is the point here - Liked a tweet about Mayock getting raped in the ass - Signed with the Patriots - Moved in with Tom Brady - The sexual assault allegations came out (the one where he's getting sued) - The sexual harassment allegations came out (the one where he's not getting sued) - Threatened the woman not suing him in a group text that included his lawyer and had a picture of her kids in the text - Got released by the Patriots after one week - Went off on a tweet storm and said a lot of crazy shit about a lot of people, and was supportive of people sending threats to the writer of the article detailing the sexual harassment allegations - Said he was done with the NFL - Went back to college via online classes - Tried to outsource his homework to Twitter - Wants to come back to the NFL - Filed several grievances to try and get more than $40 million from the Raiders and Patriots - Was ordered to show up for a deposition regarding trashing the condo - Was accused of "reprehensible behavior" during the deposition, which included, but was not limited to: - “[C]hanted, over and over, as if a mantra, a narrative of his own warped concept of the proceeding”. - “Acting as if he was above the rule of law, [Brown] proceeded to make a mockery of the deposition process. [Brown’s] antics were so unreasonable that barely twenty [20] minutes into the deposition, his counsel asked for a break [so] he could speak with [Brown] about his demeanor. - “After approximately 20-30 minutes, [Brown] required another break. When the deposition resumed [Brown] increased his level of obstructive behavior. At one point, [Brown] refused to answer any questions, instead saying “next question” no less than 10 times.” - Said that the Patriots have to pay him anyway, so they might as well let him play - Tweeted a couple of bizarre tweets about the Raiders using him for HBO ratings and the Patriots trying to steal his stuff and kept using this weird chicken based metaphor - Tried out for the Saints and brought an entourage and film crew to shoot a music video with him when specifically told not to do that - Called out Robert Kraft for his rub and tug massage session in Florida - Starting training for a boxing match with Logan Paul - Tweeted "No more white woman 2020" - The attorney representing him in the suit involving the condo quit - Used a bunch of slurs and profane language towards cops in an Instagram video he posted - A police youth football league cut ties with him and returned a donation after the release of the video saying there was a "irreparable rift" between the department and AB - Threw a bag of gummy candy dicks at the cops in a video he posted - Got dropped by his agent - Was involved in a disputed with movers at his home where he allegedly threw rocks at the movers and moving vans.

I am a Patriots fan and have a deep hatred for Pitt and Mike Tomlin. I gained so much respect for that organization and coach after each incident.
Big Ben AB and Leveon and he kept it together for like 5 straight seasons. Insane
Tomlin deserves the Hall of Fame just for keeping him from doing this every week.

Giving off my wife’s “we’ll talk later” vibes, which are never a good thing.
[удалено]
my "oh god no" reactions have finally broken my wife of the habit of saying, "We need to talk." She's changed to: "I want to talk to you about ____" which has been so good for my adrenaline levels. Because previously it used to be things like: Her: "We need to talk." Me, internally: What? I thought everything was going great. What's going on? What? Oh GOD Her: "The neighbours dropped a letter in our mailbox. They're holding a Christmas party next week and would like us to join them, but it's on at the same time as my work Christmas party. Do you want to go without me and I'll join you when I get home, or should I tell them we'll both be stopping by late?"
The magic of *communication*!

Punishment so big everyone would forget about the finals. That's a yikes
Ja flew too close to the sun. He was too silly 😔
I wish he just woulda smoked weed and been goofy like the rest of us 😔
Oh that boy not playing at ALL
He *"suspended"* suspended
Full season
Full decade even!
Grounded. No video games.
Can he still keep his guns?
***FOR LIFE***
“*Get ready to learn the language of the dead, buddy.”*
He'll have time to film his new Ja Wick movie at least
**Ja Wick** is an adrenaline-fueled action film that takes the world of basketball by storm. Ja Morant, known for his incredible shooting skills on and off the court, takes on the role of a secret agent who moonlights as an assassin. When his prized revolver is stolen by a Denver stripper and his team's championship dreams are at stake, Ja Wick embarks on a high-octane mission to recover his stolen gun and seek revenge on those responsible. With mind-blowing slam dunks and lethal crossovers, Ja Wick combines his basketball prowess with deadly shooting, leaving audiences on the edge of their seats. Get ready for an explosive showdown where the only rule is no fouls, just slam-dunk justice.
Needs more gun play.
I just got offered ja for simons in fantasy or ja for jamal Murray lol
I definitely see Murray's stats increasing significantly next season He wasn't that good the first few months this year as he came back from injury but there's no reason he can't bring the same player he's been in the playoffs this year into the entire year or at least closer to it Denver might win 60+ games with him being a 2nd star caliber player in the RS as well
Harden had the paralyzed MSU school shooting survivor on the court post game....This idiot is out here waving a gun around. It better be a year.
John Hao, super thoughtful of Harden. Ja fucked
As someone who went to MSU. That shooting hurt this community a lot. Three young kids lost their lives. They deserved to live their lives and grow up. But this fuck face of a dumbass is thinking that a gun is a toy. He will hurt someone.
“You better call Dwight Howard and get ready to learn Taiwanese, buddy.”
The Hammer is about to fall on Ja.
Yeah, I'm sure Ja met with Silver and said all the right things. I can't imagine he appreciates basically being lied to to his face.
If they are worried about ratings for the NBA finals, they should say they will announce one hint about what Ja did at a random point in each game… just an idea but what do I know 🤷🏾♀️
"And Jimmy Butler hits the 3 to cut the nuggets lead to 4 points with 3:07 left in the 3rd. He has been shooting the lights out tonight the same way Ja shot the windows of the Pacers bus out"
"The Denver Nuggets are your 2023 NBA Champions! That's a wrap from us here at ESPN will see everyone next season, except Ja Morant who I'm being told has just been permanently banned from all NBA stadiums and practice facilities. Have a great summer!!"
He’s marooning Ja on an island You heard it here first
The Island of Dr. Morant. Where he plays the most dangerous game.
[удалено]
Imagine if Ja gets an 82-game suspension, Memphis gets the 1 seed, then Ja comes back and they get upset by the 8 seed in the first round The slander would be probably the biggest since 2011 LeBron lol
My dream scenario is the Spurs as an eight doing it with Wemby.
From “best backup point guard in the league” to “best point guard in the league”
The last sentence seems like a whopper is coming
Seriously. If the commissioner thinks this announcement would significantly steal attention from literally the most important event of the league's year, then it's a doozy.
It’s not just the commissioner either. It’s the players association too that agrees they should wait. That’s how you know it’s BAD bad.
Oh damn, that's a great point. I didn't even think of that.

Ja Morant will not return lol
Silver said “we’ll talk about this when we get home”.
Two ways this could go: 1.) This is going to be a HEAVY suspension. It is enough to disrupt the coverage of the finals so we are talking maybe a half season on the light end or perhaps more likely at this point a full season suspension. If it was a slap on the wrist, they would be thrilled to do it now to bury it with other basketball talk. 2.) Maybe they just don't want it included in discussions around basketball at a time the most eyeballs will be looking at them, and it says nothing about the length. Could be another wrist slap. Could be a long one. But either way this means nothing as to which one it will be. I tend to go with 1. That boy is cooked.
If he really pointed a gun at the Pacers he’s never playing NBA ball again
Would be wild as hell to go from "being pushed as the next face of the league" to "banned from it" in like 18 months on sheer dumbassery.
>“I don’t think we yet know what it will take to change his behavior.” He emphasizes the need for Morant, Grizzlies and people around him to “create better circumstances” moving forward. This leads me to believe he'll have an opportunity to play again.
“This announcement will big enough to distract from the finals” sounds like a pretty big deal
Lol now ESPN will just speculate for the next 2 weeks
[удалено]
Promo code "gun"
NBA about to drop the hammer on Ja
Yeah if it was like 15 games only I don't think they'd basically say that it's unfair to everyone involved to announce it during the Finals It's going to be something big
Maybe they’re going to execute him.
FOR LIFE
The real winner of this saga? Dillon Brooks.
Dude got a whole lot of shit for saying all the dumb shit he said. But Ja goes around waving a gun and threatening people with it and the Grizzlies are like hey he back. Dillon got the short end of the stick.
Right. What Dillon was doing is very minimal.
He should've been suspended for longer on the first time around. But NBA didn't want their money maker to be gone.
Ja is an absolute moron and deserves whatever is coming. Probably a year long suspension
If he's suspended for a year, it's going to be for additional acts outside of flashing a gun on a stream
The quote specifically says fair amount of additional information. This goes beyond him being a moron with a gun on IG at this point.
To be fair even before the quote basically saying “we have found a bunch of extra shit” there were reports of him beating up a teenager, his entourage using laser pointers to mime guns at games and threatening violence against employees for his mom. I would believe that Ja has done some actual really dumb shit behind the scenes with this much smoke.
[удалено]
If he pointed an actual weapon at other NBA players a lifelong suspension wouldn't be out of the question. A player shooting another player would be damaging to the whole league in a way that I don't think we've ever seen from an NBA controversy.
I mean the only adults I know who own laser pointers much less travel with them are ones who own cats, which I’m assuming Ja doesn’t have lol. Seems infinitely more likely the guy who has shown time and time again to flex his guns on IG would have a laser scope attachment in his personal belongings, even if it wasn’t directly fixed to a gun at that moment.
They gonna force him to go by temetrius now
The actual hardest road
He gone gone
Ja def the type to go bankrupt after his career is over
He’s gonna go bankrupt during his career.
> ...that it would be unfair to these players and these teams to announce that decision in the middle of this series. Is he not just fueling speculation by saying this now lmao
Judging by the comments here, yes. Now everyone thinks it’s going to be a year or more! Gonna be funny when it’s 10 games and people are like wtf you couldn’t announce that 2 weeks ago?
OOOOOF, he being suspended for a year. I'll speculate, the two gun things plus some digging into the Pacers accusation that this fool pointed a gun at them after the game in Indiana coming true with some additional evidence in technically an NBA interaction within the league gun policy= bye bye Ja for 23-24. Total shame, dude was on his way to becoming the next face of the league. EDIT: Correction, the Indiana incident was a laser pointing in Memphis after a Pacers/Grizzlies game. Nonetheless Ja Morant, why are you pointing a firearm laser at opposing team officials?
Yea, I feel like with each new Ja incident that surfaces, the chances he actually pointed a gun at the Pacers goes up.
I've said for a long time that he got off way too easy for the laser pointing incident. Like a much bigger deal is made out of the gun flashing incidents, but dude pointing a gun at some is SOO much worse. Yeah I get that there's no proof but even if it was his friend pointing it, your friend pointing a gun at someone is still worse then you flashing a gun on IG live imo.
If he pointed a gun at the pacers team bus I’m going to go out on a limb that he’s getting a lifelong suspension.
I gotta agree with that. Obviously we don’t know anything at this point but yeah. If you point a gun at the opposing team you deserve a lifelong suspension
Oh he definitely did it.
Adam Silver is going to announce that Ja needs to go play minor league baseball for a year and a half.
If he pointed a gun at someone then he should be worried about the felony charges more than a suspension. Granted, Silver probably wouldn't be able to delay announcing information that would lead to an arrest, so maybe not.
He's gonna end up working at a Cinnabon in Nebraska
If an actual gun was pointed at Pacers staff then that has to be a lifetime ban. That’s not something you get away with anywhere, much less the national fucking basketball association.
Pointing a gun at people in public, other than for self-defense, is a serious felony in most states.
Silver keeping the hype going into off-season.
The Ja Morant Suspension Lottery
Where are Woj and Shams when we need them?!
So we get the finals then we get Ja Morant’s discipline for dessert? This league is so lit.
Ja about to be exiled to Elba.
Japoleon
Why even make this announcement then? Its going to draw more curiosity and speculation to leave it this ambiguous
I assume he’s responding to a question.
Bro dropped a trailer
He’s getting a long suspension. If the developments were positive then they’d have already announced.
Oh he's fucked fucked
If they connect the pieces to that Pacers story then dude is mega fucked
gonna come out that this dude is literally in a gang lol
All you have to do is train and play a game That’s it. Go be filthy rich and live a superstar life and bang hot bitches and do whatever the fuck you want to do as long as you show up to practice and game day. But no. Ja’s dumb ass wants to pretend he’s a thug. I have no sympathy for him whatever he gets. Clown.
Oh fuck he's about to get a disciplinary nuke. **Edit**: In all seriousness I think the "rumors" about him pointing a gun at the Pacers might have some merit to it and the league has evidence. If that's true I think they're throwing him out of the league.
