Man the last year of being a grizzlies fan has been rough. Was hoping this summer things would start to turn around
Well fuck, guess we not trading tyus i still don’t think Ja did anything wrong but when you are one of the faces of the league and already got in trouble for it they are going to make an example out of him
Is this news? Of course he is possibly facing a lengthy suspension. He got suspended last time for a similar offense.
Feel sorry for the good guys in the team man, they signed up to win a chip but got McFucklord instead
What Iām mad about is why did the team not tell him he didnāt get a say so and they were hiring a dude to follow him whoās sole job was to make sure there were no videos going out. Make him a ādriverā so heās with him all the time and his only job is to drive Ja around, and make sure no one has a phone open and on any social media while Ja is around. At this point can we just get like an EMP ankle bracelet for him so no electronics work within 50 ft of him.
And he deserves it. Can’t believe he’s so dumb. Now what should have been a transformative offseason for us will be filled with nothing but distractions and negativity.
Unbelievably disappointed rn
You would expect him to know better after he got in trouble for it the first time around.
He should! What kind of idiot makes the same stupid mistake again when billions of people would love to have his talent and future. No one is impressed by your gun anyway, flashing it around and possibly shooting yourself or someone else isnāt cool, just ask Plaxico Burress. I hope he wakes up so we can all watch him have a great career!
Simple solution. After ja suspension he has no social media accounts goes on the straight and narrow publicly at least. Gets his money gets his rings, then he can do whatever he wants
how long we thinking. 20 games? 41? full year?
Bridges got 30 games for domestic violence so I don’t think Ja’s suspension will surpass that but he needs to sit his booty down for some time and get his mind right. You can argue they went light last time with the 8 games so I expect them to still make this a strong wake up call.
Genuine question for Grizz fans, why is this situation worse? I thought last time, the crux of the issue was him (potentially) taking the gun on a team plane, into NBA facilities etc.
Here heās in a car, in the off season? Is the issue bringing the league into disrepute? I would think the penalty should be less, except that heās now a repeat offenderā¦
Super dissappointing and just awful energy to head into the new season with. I am expecting a 20-30 game suspension for Ja. He is an elite plater on the court but his off the court antics are purely idiotic….
I guess my question is what rule did ja break? Open carry is legal and he didnāt travel with the team
Ja is just an empty dude inside. The words he says literally have no meaning. He is a typical gen z kid. Desensitized to everything. Weāre not going anywhere with him being our key player.
Gonna be 10 while games this time
Whatās the crime
Hella yeah fuck this shitty ass dynasty
Should be suspended for all season
Innocent until proven guilty
This is such an insane series of events, I just donāt understand what Ja was thinking. No NBA team wants their star player waving guns around on ig live.
Expecting 20 games. Could be a little less. I donāt think it would be higher.
Suspend him a fucking year.
I really think this needs to be last time.
How many times has he done this without being caught
Should be 82
It seems likely that Adam Silver told Ja in no uncertain terms what would happen if he repeated the behavior that led to the eight game suspension. Ja probably already knows exactly how many games he will miss now.
Suspend him 20 games so he can’t get all NBA or all star. Minimum. Would be cool with any length.
its all nba young boys fault smh lol
Honestly more deserving of an indefinite ban than OJ Mayo was.
Someone needs to whoop his ass with a belt
He won’t. He’s NBA’s darling. He will be suspended 5 games at worst. Chalk it up to load management.
last time was 8 games. i mean this time HAS to be at least 25-30? maybe all star break?
Man should be suspended for a full year this time and permanently his next fuck up.
Can someone explain whatās so bad about flashing alleged gun on ig live? Where is the rule that says: āYou canāt have a gun.ā?
In Jaās defense ā¦. Look at that trigger discipline
Great š«
Most dudes involved with gangs/guns on the streets dream of being a superstar NBA player with millions. They are just trying to get by anyway they can.
Ja dreams of being a gangsta with a gun trying to earn money the hard way….
I feel bad for his attitude. A great superstar skill, but canāt appreciate his talent in a manner way.
A lot of gunshot happening in America, yet this idiot just repeats his action again instead of showing good sample as an influenced person
