I do feel like this is a bit of a letdown after Silver hyped it up as so big it would take away from the finals. Don’t clickbait me Adam.

lmao, yeah, they have to say that. They are gonna talk to Ja, then talk to the League office, and I would be shocked if it's mentioned again. It would be cosmically dumb for them to actually fight this more than the baseline union duty of this questioning of the process and making sure it's above board. As "unstated conditions" are kinda bullshit. Because if the League like actually lays out facts publicly, Ja is not gonna come out looking good, and no one on any side wants that. loving laffo if they do though. Ja's people would be like insanely stupid to keep this in the news by challenging it, and it sounds like he has no intention of actually doing so judging by his statement.

yeah I'm a cop in that im super anti gun and anti idiots with guns. ja has exhibited a pattern that indicates a lack of self awareness and serious dedication to change his behavior. 25 games is a weak suspension given the violation was a repeat of the exact behavior that got him in trouble and was **THIS IS SO IMPORTANT** illegal. that flashing a gun on livestream in a car isnt **THIS IS SO IMPORTANT** illegal is completely irrelevant. imo it should have been 26 games 👍 🚓 🚨 💙 blm blue lives matter 💙

If ja went from 30 seconds of therapy to 25 games maybe the third infraction is 2500 years.

Ja got renewed for 3 years on the shoe deal. Which is really rewarding him for social media clout chasing cause little kids love it. I hope he can just not flash guns on social media and realize he's more famous and has higher status than rappers so he doesn't need to pretend to be king von anymore I enjoy watching him play basketball pentyne posted:drat this is crazy, does the NBA know about all this?

"Ja will be suspended 5 games for being a fake thug that has guns but doesn't bust them" "Ja will be suspended 5 additional games for saying no to pussy to go play xbox with his 'broke rear end friends that don't like him anyway', an confidential source reported to league officials. The NBPA will be disputing the 'broke rear end' charges later in the week."

anakha posted:Just curious, what metrics rate the 1991 and 1993 Bulls as below average defensively? The narrative around the first threepeat team was that they forced a lot of turnovers with how long and quick Jordan/Pippen/Grant were defensively. Lid posted:I'd like to know that too given MJ was the greatest two-way player of all time so saying they were bad defensively is they must've been atrocious if Jordan couldn't keep them at average. Both of those teams had a worse than average D FG%. ~97% of NBA/ABA champions have a D FG% better than league average. -Christian Braun -Michael Porter Jr. -Jamal Murray Their D all improved markedly in the playoffs. It's been a few days and I'm still  ing at that crooked ref calling the foul because Aaron Gordon's private part injured Jimmy's foot. That ref was sweating profusely knowing he had to lie in front of millions of people in a futile effort to extend the series.
