May 15, 20232 yr Ja Morant suspended again for flashing a gun on Instagram live. The incident is causing a debate online about the different treatment of white vs black celebrities open carrying.
May 15, 20232 yr 20 minutes ago, Cleburger said: Ja Morant suspended again for flashing a gun on Instagram live. The incident is causing a debate online about the different treatment of white vs black celebrities open carrying. I get it that it is bad optics to flash a gun on instagram, but 1) Assuming he owns the gun legally, 2) He was not on team time and was at his home or other private residence, 3) nothing illegal occurred with that gun, then I agree, the Grizzlies acted a bit heavy handed. Given it is the offseason for him, it could be just a headline grabbing move by the team in the offseason to make it look like they are doing something but not actually doing anything. It is not like he would actually miss any paychecks (From what I understand, players are only paid in season), so locking him out of team offseason activities for a month at the beginning of the offseason is likely something that really is an optics only type punishment.
May 15, 20232 yr Let's be honest, this guy is bad news. Off the top of my head, in the least few years he's beaten up a teenager after a pick-up game, either threatened or attacked a saleman, either threatened or attacked yet another high school student, made a vague threat to shoot someone online, flashed a gun several times live, and is surrounded by thugs who pointed guns at the Pacers in February. Bad news all around.

July 1, 20231 yr Author still getting love ... Kevin Love Agrees To Two-Year Deal With Heat June 30th 2023 at 7:57pm CST by Dana Gauruder Veteran power forward Kevin Love is returning to the Heat on a two-year contract, according to Tim Reynolds of the Associated Press. The second year will include a player option (Twitter links). The Heat are using their non-Bird rights to re-sign Love, which will result in a $3.7MM cap hit for next season, the Miami Herald’s Anthony Chiang tweets. Miami could have gone as high as $3.84MM to retain Love, so they’ll get a little cap relief if the $3.7MM figure is correct. In any case, it’ll be a bargain for a five-time All-Star and 34-year-old rotation player. After reaching a buyout with the Cavaliers, Love appeared in 21 regular-season games with the Heat, including 17 starts. He averaged 7.7 points, 5.7 rebounds and 1.9 assists, though the 37% career 3-point shooter struggled from long range (29.7%). Love played 20 postseason games with Miami, including 18 starts, and produced an average of 6.9 points, 5.6 rebounds and 1.2 assists in 17 minutes. His 3-point shooting perked up to his usual level (37.5%). https://www.hoopsrumors.com/2023/06/kevin-love-agrees-to-two-year-deal-with-heat.html
July 6, 20231 yr Author trades and signings timeline here — NBA free agency 2023: Latest signings, news, buzz and reports ESPN.com Jul 4, 2023 The NBA's free agency negotiation period officially kicked off at 6 p.m. ET on Friday, ahead of the league's annual moratorium period, which began Saturday at midnight. Deals can be agreed to during this period but can't be officially signed until Thursday. While this year's list of free agents doesn't contain as many superstars as those in years past, there could be plenty of player movement via trades, which we've seen in recent offseasons. Among the big names who were free agents was Toronto Raptors point guard Fred VanVleet, who agreed to a three-year, $130 million deal with the Houston Rockets. Point guard Kyrie Irving re-signed with the Dallas Mavericks on a three-year, $126 million deal. A player is an unrestricted free agent (UFA) when he is not under contract and is free to sign with any NBA team without any obligation to his former team. A restricted free agent (RFA) is still under control by his current team, but he is not on the roster and is free to seek offers from other teams. However, before an RFA can accept an offer from another team, his current team must have the opportunity to at least match that offer to retain him. If his current team matches that offer, then that player must remain with his current team. We'll have all the latest news and reports as our team of NBA insiders chases down every bit of information to keep you plugged in as the league reshapes itself once again this summer. more: https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/37852244/nba-free-agency-2023-latest-deals-news-buzz-reports

July 25, 20231 yr Author also, its not exactly one to one here regarding playing pro sports either. i dont believe hamlin's father is a zillionaire. pretty sure bronny should give up playing ball up outside of a hobby as he most certainly doesnt need it. if i were his super wealthy parents i would definitely encourage him away from danger like that and toward other things. lebron of course gets health checked all the time, but he better keep a closer eye on his ticker too. and the other kids, that could run in the family. good news is afaik them i have no doubt savannah, lebron and the whole family are well on top of this.

April 30Apr 30 So the Cavs will face the 4th-seeded Pacers in the conference semifinals. The Pacers beat the Bucks 4-1 in their series.This is the highlight reel of the closeout game. The Bucks did not have Damian Lillard available and yet still had every opportunity to force Game 6. This was a wild one capped by both a comeback to force overtime and an even more dramatic comeback to take the win and the series, so I guess the lesson for the Cavs is stay disciplined until the very end, but honestly, even acknowledging the risk of overconfidence, I think the Cavs could take this series in 5 games or fewer. That said, the Pacers beat us 3 of 4 games we played this regular season. But they didn't exactly look in peak playoff form last night, even though they got the win.
