• Ja Morant....so what exactly is he supposed to be suspended for?

    From michael anderson@21:1/5 to All on Mon May 15 20:07:14 2023
    Other than having godawful taste in music?

    Best I can tell he is just holding a gun and laughing with his friend to terrible music. Is he following gun safety rules to a perfect t? Probably not....but it's not like he is aiming it at himself or his friend in a joking manner. At some point even
    those most trained and safe with guns have not had perfect gun safety etiquette.

    He's not really "waving it around" in a wreckless manner. Hell we don't even know if it's loaded.

    I just don't see what he did wrong here.

    Two weeks ago I went over to another brookwood doc's property and we shot targets there......I think he posted it to his page. Should we be suspended to? For what lmao??

    Conduct detrimental to the team, basketball, and the NBA.

    Right now, I would actually posit (and I believe the NBA should ban him for this and do a thorough investigation in this offseason into any gang ties he has) that he is a high-ranking member of a major gang and is trying to bring that gang culture into
    the NBA.

    As usual, you are a clueless fucking dumbfuck.

    (a) Pardon me for being in pedantic mode today, but it's "reckless" - "wreckless" is somebody with a clean driving record.
    (b) First Rule Of Guns: All Guns Are Loaded. Tell Brandon Lee otherwise.

    Can you bet on the NBA? Yes.
    Can Ja? No.
    Face it - NBA players are role models, whether they like it or not. If the league thinks that one of its players flashing a gun in a car is a problem and then posting a picture of it (and I have a feeling the real reason for any suspension is not
    carrying the gun, but publicizing it on social media), then it is a problem.
