Coattail riders are just "yes men". They don't question anything because they fear it'll get them ostracized.
It’s a dumb image and we need to continue to shame that type of foolishness. With that said, I’ve heard these commentators ask that Adam suspend the brotha indefinitely which is also ridiculous.
Go to that John Wick training center. You get to shoot all types of shit and it can be recorded.
Exactly! I’m from the hood and I have good sense. Sense enough to not do ignorant dumb shit. I hate that fools like these clowns “define” what being from the “hood” is. There are a lot of good upstanding people, who care about their communities that live in the hood too! And we’re sick of these damn fools too. I’m sick of black peoples celebrating the most low, destructive versions of ourselves, like that shit is cool. For males it’s the “gangster” hood shit and for women, it’s the ratchet hood rat shit. I never thought that shit was cool, even as a shorty growing up in the hood. We got to stop letting these clowns represent the culture.
Calling Ja a Moron is just dumb. Yes, his actions were dumb asf but to say he is a Moron and Dumb is not what OG's like Stephen Jackson should be saying.
Not once have I heard any of these OG;s say they are going to reach out to him. That's what he needs...
Jay Williams made a good point this morning and said he needs like a life coach or like a mentor beside him for the next several months on top of talking to a licensed therapist.
Like his dad should hire someone like Eric Thomas to talk to him and be around him this whole entire offseason....

Getting in shoot outs and constantly having to worry about someone killing you, wasn't something that I looked at and thought, "oh the fun they must have."
You don't make any money being a goon. What's the point of putting your life on the line, and you can't afford wagyu.
Funny how that fake rap set looks like a Dipset video
you can't reach out to someone who won't answer the phone.....
His dad is the one "dancing in all the videos, on the sidelines at all the games...."
He can't hire anyone, I see Ja saying that is his money, with the super serious face
Exactly! Well said!!
Something about the white man coming to the defense of us black people. Man stay out of black people’s business.
Facts, these CACs think they know what they talking about when it comes to our people when they need to S.T.F.D. and STFU.
It's not even about breaking the law, but let him cook!
This is a case of layers needing to be peeled back.
Ja Morant is a young player, with a fun marketable style of gameplay who should be preparing to make gobs of money, especially as LeBron is aging out (this is not a knock on LeBron but he's 38 and 20 years in, he's closer to the end than to the beginning) and Ja could be a very fun, face of the league but he's throwing it away because he's doing stupid shit that would make brands not want to work with him and might make teams apprehensive about signing him to huge contracts.
Like I said in the other thread, if he was in the NFL, he'd be getting released.
Facts
Miss me with hood status if you ain’t robbing the rich. Killing your own ain’t it.
Totally agree because the NFL don't play that shit.
JJ Redick.... continues to just kill it.
This is tennessee's fault... Not a single law was broken in this video. It's crazy but it's true.
the nba might have a code and conduct policy... but that's it.
But on the real... JA has got to do better then this.

JJ was incorrect. Those lawmakers he mentioned will be held to account at the ballot box. They just happen to know that those who will be responsible for holding them accountable don't have a problem with their statements or actions, so it's unlikely that they'll suffer negative consequences. In fact it's why they continue to be so overtly pro-gun, because the people who can remove them from their positions are staunchly pro-gun, and they aren't about to bite the hand that feeds them.
Unfortunately for Ja, the people who will hold him to account, those that can remove him from his position(Grizzles organization and the NBA,) do have a problem with his actions. Ja already bit that hand once, but decided to go back for seconds, now that hand is about to smack the shit out of him.
He’s right, damn on pernt
Rhetorical?
Well he's not their people, so they don't give a fuck.
I said this the first time it happened, but I suggested that he go hang out with Allen iverson, because they play the same and AI went through some things before he came in the league...he's seen friends die because of gun violence
Ja didn’t break any law.
If I owned a bouncy house, rented it out for kids bday parties and the star of my commercial had similar (gun) vids out there……I would fire the star of my commercial and make a new one.

I understand the NBA Is a business and they never Have liked the street nigga image in their game rightfully so They have done everything to try to keep it out but it’s getting harder with social media The nba is a business that targets families and kids/sponsors etc So IMAGE is a big thing I understand .. so Ja and other Young American brothers Like (miles bridges etc) Keep doing things to tamper with their Image and brand .. As I said when Flau'jae Johnson Got pushback for the 911 lyric I don’t even think elite black athletes Should try to rap unless it’s will smith like cuz image is too vital To profit in the sports business And rap culture is usually anti establishment it just is But if you break the rules You gotta deal with the punishment So Ja is in trouble again with his organization .. ACCOUNTABILITY No excuses However In a country where mass murders run rampant weekly domestic terrorism is on the rise etc And as a young black man Knowing and numbers showing that Other Black men will blow your fuckin head off out of jealousy etc Why can’t you be a proud 2A guy In a state that guns are legal in? And play sports at a elite level? Are is it the rap music in the background of these videos And him representing hip hop street Culture and you don’t want that in your game .. Because maybe that’s the real problem You decide
I disagree but he makes a strong argument
The NBA is private business and the power of the commissioner has been collectively bargained with the players association
It’s within the league’s right to suspend Ja for a pattern of reckless behavior which include brandishing firearms. The NBA is in the make money business, not the business of advocating the 2nd amendment business. Ja is one of the faces of the league and it’s within their rights to hold him accountable for his reckless, dumb behavior

Iverson been to prison as well, also went to jail for carrying a gun but got bailed out.
None of this shit happened to JA yet but if he keeps it up then he will be dealing with some serious consequences soon outside of the NBA!
I'm pretty sure all of us on BGOL want to see JA succeed and had he never was trying to be something that he's not, this thread on BGOL wouldn't never had exist.
I want to hear more good news about JA and not some dumb shit he's doing fucking up his dream being in the NBA.
