it’s been straight ja morant slander, hypothetical trade packages and lowlights for three years and the second he gets traded it’s back “OMG JA 🤩🔥👀💯🐐” from the media.
fuck the media for how they treated ja and the way they handle the memphis market historically.
If we could get a front office and leadership that actually wants success for once that’d be so cool. It seems like every single front office admin we have is hellbent on sabotage when things go really good.
I don’t really know how to react.
Half of me is heartbroken. My teenage years and adult life? Spent watching Ja.
Half of me is relieved. No more drama on that end. A new leaf.
All I know is I’ll miss the 22/23 seasons bad.
Whether Ja Morant stays in Memphis or not I’ll always root for him. He’s the first player in a Grizz jersey to have his own shoe means something as a 28 year old born and raised in Memphis. He put the city on the map despite his mistakes which we all make. 12 forever good with me
You know, Ja has done some things that has pissed some people off (myself included)
But to be treated like a complete and worthless asset by all 29 other teams, after all he’s been through, is painful to see.
I’d love to watch him conduct the Grizzlies again.
