    Interested to see if we hate the Suns or Ja more

  2. Projinator

    I don’t understand what yall want from young stars. Is confidence bad now?

  3. DynamixRo

    I’m sure people will forget all about this statement and definitely won’t rub it in his face if the Grizzlies somehow fail to make it out of the Western Conference.

  4. BigKahunaPF

    How is this even a bad statement? This sub trying to hate on Ja now?

  5. behappysometimes

    I don’t understand why people are making a big deal out of this. He’s an overly confident young star that’s already better than anybody thought he’d be at this point in time. Let him talk his shit and be humbled in the postseason.

  6. CarryTheHellOn

    Never made it out the second round 😂

  7. stonkerooni

    Don’t forget he’s better than Jordan in his prime too

  8. TattedUpDasher

    At least he had the balls to double down. He would have looked soft had he backtracked

  9. I_Set_3_Alarms

    Whoa Ja Morant thinks his team can make the finals? What an asshole /s

  10. kookbeard

    Grizzlies are going to get the 2 seed and then face the Mavs in the 1st round. The Mavs win in 6 because they own the Grizzlies.

    I mean who cares? I would assume most stars have this mindset lol

  12. MooseMeat60

    Are people overreacting to stuff like this because some of the other big super stars don’t really say much? Luka giannis and jokic barely have quotes so we have to over react to anyone else who has them?

  13. MostlyMellow123

    Dame has been making these comments his whole career lol

  14. ResponsibilityOk235

    The Suns are the biggest frauds of the west been saying this for the past 2 years. Only way they even got there was because of injuries man. They trick y’all

  15. projectionist88

    Always good to get a reminder to never go back to browsing nba/new

  16. wiseraccoon

    I genuinely don’t understand how his original response became a story. The guy can’t say anything anymore

  17. Glowwerms

    Doesn’t bother me that he feels this way but it is funny that the Suns catch shit on this sub so much for being cocky and shit talkers when Ja and the Grizzlies are the most arrogant team in the league

    Ja traveled like a mf on that game winner btw 😘
