My biggest issue with all these Ja stories is wtf is the memphis front office doing? Did anyone sit down with him? Poor leadership across the board in that organization

Cavs on the road. Hope they make it close. They suck on the road.

Also, Philly at Miami.
Nets and Knicks a good one too

Why would you assume that they haven’t?

Why would you assume that it would make a difference?

If the stories are true, that is the type of behavior that looks like he believes he is above the law. Untouchable.

He ain’t changing his behavior off of a talk with front office personnel.

Can’t blame the Grizzlies for Ja’s bad behavior.

Nah, just seems like his fame has gone to his head.

They would have intentionally leaked that info by now especially after that indy situation. This one was an offseason situation but the indy one? I would have leaked it asap to my source that we had a sit down since another nba team was involved

Question is, has Westbrook come to this same conclusion?

Also, PG is kinda a bitch….lol

It’s true, he can’t be the #1.

But, You are getting paid like one.

So, don’t let that excuse your current failures.



Good that he can be honest with himself...but not something he should be saying publicly.

Maybe, maybe not.

But I think it is a bad assumption that Memphis isn’t attempting some form of intervention just because it wasn’t public.

They should be more concerned about their relationship with their player than public perception.

I like the Sixers.
You feel better than I do. I’ve got James Harden and a road game in Miami. Not only was Harden likely out last night, he probably had multiple teammates out with him. His career numbers in Miami are way off his career averages. Miami is a fun city for most. It’s heaven for a dude like Harden.

Sixers are an enigma. When I get down on them they do something to string me along. When I start feeling like they’ve turned a corner they lose at home to the Celtics and then follow up sleep walking through a home game with the Heat. Sixers have 22 games left and 15 are on the road. Dropping that home game for a 1-2 home stand out of the All Star break is just unacceptable for a squad with championship goals. Meanwhile…Bucks and the Celtics just keep rolling along.

Smells a lot like Process Era Sixers. They let Jah Okafor get away with shit. They let Ben Simmons do what he wanted. Maybe they’re scared of the dude and him wanting out if they give him the tough talk. At the same time, his coach never even played college basketball let alone pro ball. I would bet that’s a tough person to get through to JA on how to conduct his business in the NBA spotlight. JA likely needs an old head to sit him down and bring him a Come to Jesus talk.

The league could help teams a lot in these situations, but they are totally awol.

JA Morant isn’t a person to them. He’s just an asset. They’ll sell him when he’s up and he’s making them money. And when a story hits like today they’ll just inundate you with KD is back tonight! stories to hide his transgressions. They don’t care if this Star burns out because the game will produce another one to replace him. It’s cut throat and all they care about is their money.
