And it also can be seen as being just enough to keep him between the rails a little at least. Going to be interesting which direction Morant goes when he gets pushed, and he will get pushed with all he is doing.

When you walk into that world you walk into the whole thing and they’ll be someone in and around Memphis that decides to make a name for himself taking a shot at him. Memphis is no joke.

Oh no doubt, I had that thought this morning. This guy wants to act like a gangster there are going to be some looking to show him he isn’t.

Yep. That world has zero fucks to give. There’s been a whole ton of violence with rappers in LA going on Instagram and shit with their locations and they get stuck up. I think a few guys have actually been shot and killed.

Coming out of high school, I still had dreams of playing in the NFL.

Looking back at me at that age, if I had made it...unless I was smart enough to buy a nice big house and move my parents and sister in with me, there's a decent chance I'd have ended up in some kind of trouble. lol

And I had a far more stable childhood than a lot of these guys.

My football days ended in 8th grade. The H.S. I went to had a good program and a great coach. All league players would transfer just to play for him. So I said fuck that, gonna stick with basketball.

No brooks tomorrow either and this as well.

Memphis season is officially on the brink

 

[bksballer89]

Lakers get a big break

 

[The Q]

Control tap to a teammate is often counted as a rebound.

A tap out of bounds is not a controlled tap.

So no.

Most aren’t controlled

Just a general direction

Just another example of what @msgkings322 and I talk about with luck needed every year

Yeah, if I had The ability to make it to mlb and make some coin, I think I would’ve been fine until my 2nd or 3rd divorce…

If he wants to be a gangster, maybe some prison time will serve him well. He will truly cherish the life every young kid playing basketball growing up wants

Yep and injury luck is the main factor

By far

That dude doesn’t roll up Malones knee and Shaq and Kobe may never have broken up

Unfortunately, a long suspension might get this kid into more trouble

Unless he decides to go play minor league baseball….

Lakers get a big break

Bruh, you just jinxed it. Now D'Lo is gonna miss the game and AD is gonna stub his toe in the warm up line and miss the game

 

[wildturkey]

Well earned suspension for Ja, probably should be longer. I was thinking like 6 games. Something just long enough to make him realize how bad he's fucking up. NBA probably should have sat him down earlier for a stern (pun intended) talk before it even got to this point.

There's some clips floating on Twitter from different people talking about how David Stern would snuff this shit out. Like this one below. He basically had people on the ground that would find out everything about you and who is around you. If they caused any kind of trouble, he straight up banned them from the buildings and made it known to the player that they would pay a heavy price if they stayed involved.
