Bro he already lost over 50 million and set to miss another 8 million and that’s not even including the money he’s going to lose for not being eligible for all nba a second year in a row. This dude lost more money than Latrell sprewell when he beat up his coach.

Bro 25 games is enough, y’all trying to give this young man a death sentence for doing something that’s not technically illegal. Was it stupid? Yeah, but not illegal. You also have to take into account that ja is going to miss 25 games which is going to add up to 8 million he will lose, add that on top of the 50 million he already lost last season for not being eligible to make all nba and add that to the money he is gonna lose for not being eligible to make all nba this upcoming season. That’s a lot of money to lose for someone who is only a 4th year player.
@@jaydot4956 not enough, millions of kids buy his shoes. He loves gun violence, like we don't have enough of that already.. and don't blame the gun blame the mental illness.

So it's definitely not a death sentence for him to learn a lesson to make him be on his best behavior.

There's a brand new candle lighting video someone has sold him out on on tmz. What it is. Just his hand lighting candles with the gun showing a friend it is a lighter. Well someone sold it to tmz. So he's about to have another incident.
Adam Silver better be willing to drop the warhead if Ja messes up one more time. And tbh, I fully expect something to happen with him again. It might not be another gun thing. But I feel like it’s gonna be something dumb af! 😢
Hopefully dude just stays inside lol that’s literally all he has to do, during off szn just travel. Easier said than done but there’s the blueprint atleast for starters
Ja has 2 gun incidents, the laser at the team bus, the gun incident with the teenage at his home and the fight at Foot Locker. He's done plenty to warrant a longer suspension. Silver is just weak.
The NBA became too soft. The rules, the players, and now even the punishment. If David Stern is still the commissioner, I can see 50 games at the minimum.
Chris in the beginning explained exactly why Ja needed to be sat down a whole season. Why bc he and others need to be shocked. 25 games and only losing 7-8 million when you’re making 35+ for a season and have a gteed 193 million overall isn’t saying much. But if you sit a guy down for a year, he loses 35 million and a whole year of bball where his team might suck and be in the lottery draft after getting close to contending, NOW you’re sending a real message.
What part do you think would help ja. The highly animated and showman personality. The scotch that would be flowing. 2 people now intensely thinking al capone is the bees knees. Like. Their idol. Or would it be his making rooms smoking and the outside non again.
Another example if Josh Gordon from the NFL. He was suspended so many times and twice for the whole season. If I am not mistaken Josh was given an mentor and I thought it would help him. I wanted him to fix himself and stop with the drugs. At the end of the day yes I want Ja to change, but I feel like another issue will come in the future. Adam Silver is weak and this will come bite him back. 25 games is not enough of punishment to change. In my opinion at least 50 games would send a real message to Ja and maybe other players.
Union busting been around 100 years the Republican party took it to a new level with Ronald Reagan as President. Never vote Republican, not for the working people.
I don't Believe Ja Morant will change. He should have been suspended for the entire season. For all of you people who want to defend his 2nd amendment rights Get A Life. H should have been suspended for the entire season. He Has To Prove that his behavior has changed. Otherwise you are going to lose your money, opportunity, and others will have the last say. His family needs therapy and he as well. He needs to be in therapy Continually and not just for the 25 games. The union defense of Ja Morant is ridiculous because they aren't ready to do what is appropriate for Ja Morant to have a behavioral change consistent with societal norms. His parents are not doing their best to assist him with lifestyle changes and choices. Memphis Grizzlies are just as bad for allowing this behavior behind closed doors. To defend his behavior is inappropriate, incompetent, and inconsistent with behavioral change. For all of these 2nd amendment rights advocates out here trying to defend his rights to a gun You are missing the point of behavioral change he needs to do. His parents are just as inappropriate of helping hom change because they are benefiting from his playing abd endorsements. Ja Morant has a problem that is not being addressed by himself or his family. The problem is more than just behavioral it is emotional, mental, and social issues. Its not about his rights to have a gun. You idiot's who think he should be allowed to show gunson live Instagram and Facebook videos are out of your minds, selfishness, self-centered attitudes, and think you can do whatever they want. Nope. Grow up Dude. Or maybe you should leave the NBA League. As all of these so-called sports analysts need to understand it's his behavior, his family members, and immaturity, insecurity, insensitivity, and ignorance of why you are being used by others. Also the family especially his mother and father are Not Helping. They are young people who have a child who is a young father who didn't have the nurturing, conversations about, and isolation necessary to be prepared for the spotlight. The NBA told his team they are Not Going to Be Lied to by Ja or his team. Incbluding your parents.
Okay the 25 game suspension was light but if there were additional clauses for it, like if he gets himself in similar situations again, then it would be automatic no discussion another 100 games suspension plus a million dollar fine.
I’m with Rob, Im pessimistic Ja behaviour will really change. Hope I’m wrong because he’s a baller man. Memphis got chance to do something going forward
Honestly why can't people accept that this is who Ja is, he's always going to be in the news for stupid things. No amount of counselling can fix making bad decisions either you got sense or don't.
It was 1st confirmed gun issue i dont even call it a offense. Remember the 1st actual offense he had gun on work property. I beleve they are punishing him for his lifestyle of interacting to heavily with the street element which i would agree, but you shouldnt be able to give the man 25 gms for bringing harm to himself
@@BillyG.O.A.TMedia in the end its a culture then remember when stern changed dress code because he didn't like or though how the brothers dressed wasn't kool. He didn't do his projections because that swag actually brought larger audience to NBA.
@@kirkbennett2398 The DRESS CODE WHEN AT A GAME. He can't tell you how to dress outside of that. It's baloney and you guys sound absolutely ridiculous trying to come up with reasons he should be suspended
He not even missing half the season he’ll be fine but Adam silver funny asl for being dramatic leading up to this decision as if he was fina be harsh about it 😂
The NBA will make billions with or without Ja. Ja is more valuable to Memphis than the NBA. Lately, Ja has either been injured or involved in nonsense off the court so he ain't been helping the NBA make money. Adam Silver is just a soft commissioner.
The NBA is trying to protect this little kid because their business partners are invested in him. Ja lied to Adam and Adam only wants to give him a slap on the wrist.
He should be happy the NBA gave him another slap on the wrist with only 25 when with all the information they've got on him he should've gotten at the very least half a season and wouldn't have argued with 50 because he needed to really get the book thrown at him to get him to grow up and really get help
@@32jaysmooth The NBA has its own sets of rules and bylaws like any other business, so yes, he did do something to deserve a suspension and a lot longer than the tap on the wrist he got last season when the alien Silver tapped him on the wrist and put him in the corner for 3 games. He's got a laundry list of things that he's done and the worst of it is threatening a teenage boy with a gun last year, then the incident with the Pacers security as well last year and I could keep going but you should check it out instead. You could easily argue 40-50 games
I wonder if Silver was yawning when "Duh"'s letter was read to him or when he read JM's statement. He should be lucky he only got a 25-game suspension. It could have been 30, maybe 35. The association can complain all they want. Remember that Brady brought his suspension to court and lost.
They were never going to suspend him half the season or the whole season, the NBA is still a business and JA is a major part of making them money, even JA knows this, this probably has a lot to do with his behavior no fear of consequences, 25 games is basically still preseason nobody's really watching because of football until after December
This is the same Broussard that 2 weeks ago argued that the fake gun made the act not punishable. Flip flopping and disingenuous media person.Why wouldn't Rob call him out?
I think Adam Silver knows Ja will do this again. If he suspends him for a season this year, what will he do next year? Ban him from the NBA for waving a gun outside of NBA facilities?
It surprised me that he's had 2 years of college, which should help with maturity at the very least. Maybe he needed antoher 2 years. Wishing him the best.
Amount of college doesn't equate to maturity. Worked in an office of 80 professionals, ran my own company, and been around thousands of people in business and social atmosphere. I'd say how you were raised has most to do with it.
@@jerryb5631it’s not how you were raised. It’s how the child receives how he was raised. I’m from the hood just like most bruthas. I had a two parent home. My father worked to become a lawyer, and my mother worked to become an accountant. I was a child that received 90% of what my parents said. I became a lawyer as well. My best friend of 42 years was raised by a single mother in the straight up projects. He became a doctor. Our other best friend had a two parent home. His father worked for the city, and his mother worked at the hospital in medical records. He sold drugs, did a stint in jail (18 months), bounced around a few jobs throughout. So, yes, how you raise your child is in the equation, but the other part of that equation is how the child receives his guidance. An example, from the age of six, I was not allowed to hug men in my family as a kid. My father made me look my uncles and older cousins in the eye and shake their hand at 6 years old. He prepared me to be a man that early. As a teenager, since I was out and about and it was the crack era, he incorporated a father/son day where sports wasn’t allowed to be talked about. The conversation was about life lessons such as getting girls pregnant and what would happen, drugs, how to recognize trouble/hustle, and in my later teenage years how to build credit, how to manage your time to accomplish your goals, songs to look for in a woman. I received those talks because I trusted my parents to steer my right due to how they lived. My father even went as far as taking a condom, poking holes in it, giving me the condom to open, and pouring water in it to show me how girls can trap you if you didn’t have a Jimmy wrapper on you. And, when we got home, mama would ask me what we talked about today every single time. And, he always said to me as a kid, “I’m not your friend. I’m not supposed to be cool to you. I’m your coach and teacher. The only difference between me and your sport coaches is I love you and I’m going to be here forever for you no matter what. You listen to your coaches when they teach you something, right? You listen to your teacher when you’re learning, right? Well, why wouldn’t you listen to the man who loves you and will do anything to protect you?” That hit hard at an early age, and it’s true.
@@MIGGYME1 Strongly disagree. Four years between 18-22 is like a decade of growth, especially with the right people around you. Just think if Zion had at least 3 years w/Coach K and the Duke staff. More focus, less injured, better conditioning. Guys are always better off w/that experience.
If Ja needs something to center him or at least think before he goes online,when you are loosing money that you already earned and the nba would have gladly rewarded you by pushing you to the moon once steph was gone...its only a matter of time before people realize he cant be a number 1 in a title winning team then hes really going to be stressed cos so far people have been praising him for his dunks.
Unions can see that the employer's bank account is zero and still tell them to go on strike for bonuses. The NBPA wants the NBA to release Ja Morant's dirty laundry now because the suspension was not based on just the "toy" gun incident.
He got 10 for lying to Silver. And 15 for lying to Jalen Rose 😂
That Jalen Rose line was dead on
Lmfao 💀
Jalen and everyone who watched the interview knew Ja wasn't taking the matter seriously.

Spot on assessment 😂😂😂😂
That last “STAHP” from Chris was personal 😂😂😂
BRO IM DEAD LIKE… ALL THESE YEARS
I get it though. This is such a stupid thing to mess your career up for. Just stop playing with guns on social media. And it’s that simple.
Listened to the podcast last night and came here just to see that “stop!” In video form 😂
yeah that was from Chris the Father
He’s tired of dumb ass people lol

He also received a nerf contract.

Adam Silver better be willing to drop the warhead if Ja messes up one more time. And tbh, I fully expect something to happen with him again. It might not be another gun thing. But I feel like it’s gonna be something dumb af! 😢
It will be another slap on the wrist, this is black privilege at its finest
Hopefully dude just stays inside lol that’s literally all he has to do, during off szn just travel. Easier said than done but there’s the blueprint atleast for starters
No he won’t lol silver soft
Ja has 2 gun incidents, the laser at the team bus, the gun incident with the teenage at his home and the fight at Foot Locker. He's done plenty to warrant a longer suspension. Silver is just weak.
The NBA became too soft. The rules, the players, and now even the punishment. If David Stern is still the commissioner, I can see 50 games at the minimum.
Don’t the players run the player association 😂
Chris in the beginning explained exactly why Ja needed to be sat down a whole season. Why bc he and others need to be shocked. 25 games and only losing 7-8 million when you’re making 35+ for a season and have a gteed 193 million overall isn’t saying much. But if you sit a guy down for a year, he loses 35 million and a whole year of bball where his team might suck and be in the lottery draft after getting close to contending, NOW you’re sending a real message.
STOP!
Bruh that man has been given multiple passes. At some point one has to wonder why so much leeway?
Shannon Sharpe. You sending ja morant to Winston churchill. Is the equivalent of me suggesting the ODB.
What part do you think would help ja. The highly animated and showman personality. The scotch that would be flowing. 2 people now intensely thinking al capone is the bees knees. Like. Their idol. Or would it be his making rooms smoking and the outside non again.
Or their mutual passion to pose with weapons emulating gangsters.
Read some memoirs people. Stops you looking the fool.
Another example if Josh Gordon from the NFL. He was suspended so many times and twice for the whole season. If I am not mistaken Josh was given an mentor and I thought it would help him. I wanted him to fix himself and stop with the drugs. At the end of the day yes I want Ja to change, but I feel like another issue will come in the future. Adam Silver is weak and this will come bite him back. 25 games is not enough of punishment to change. In my opinion at least 50 games would send a real message to Ja and maybe other players.
Josh Gordon had documented drug issues tho. Like seriously bad habits, it wasn’t just smoking weed
Chris taking us to English class today, Licentious…learned a new word
25 games is a slap on the wrist
See people. Even the nba has a union. Rich people get unions but good old bezos doesn’t want us to have them.
Merry Christmas nba
Union busting been around 100 years the Republican party took it to a new level with Ronald Reagan as President. Never vote Republican, not for the working people.
why would bezos want that? i understand why you would want that, and i’m all for it, but for him it makes no sense.
You're bitter about your life decisions and where they've led you. Joining a union will never change the decisions you already made.
@@will-zj5gqI think you are making his point. He was critiquing Bezos but the people who need to wake up and realise the need for unions...
Rob Parker is savage “thought it could have been a half season” hahah, daaaaammnnnnn!
25 games is just a joke. Ive lost total respect for Adam Silver. No accountability and responsibility at all. Ridiculous.
He don't know you crybaby
Anything less than 1 season is BS Crap.... NBA will suffer for this...
I don't Believe Ja Morant will change. He should have been suspended for the entire season. For all of you people who want to defend his 2nd amendment rights Get A Life.
H should have been suspended for the entire season. He Has To Prove that his behavior has changed. Otherwise you are going to lose your money, opportunity, and others will have the last say.
His family needs therapy and he as well. He needs to be in therapy Continually and not just for the 25 games.
The union defense of Ja Morant is ridiculous because they aren't ready to do what is appropriate for Ja Morant to have a behavioral change consistent with societal norms.
His parents are not doing their best to assist him with lifestyle changes and choices. Memphis Grizzlies are just as bad for allowing this behavior behind closed doors.
To defend his behavior is inappropriate, incompetent, and inconsistent with behavioral change. For all of these 2nd amendment rights advocates out here trying to defend his rights to a gun
You are missing the point of behavioral change he needs to do. His parents are just as inappropriate of helping hom change because they are benefiting from his playing abd endorsements.
Ja Morant has a problem that is not being addressed by himself or his family. The problem is more than just behavioral it is emotional, mental, and social issues.
Its not about his rights to have a gun. You idiot's who think he should be allowed to show gunson live Instagram and Facebook videos are out of your minds, selfishness, self-centered attitudes, and think you can do whatever they want. Nope. Grow up Dude. Or maybe you should leave the NBA League.
As all of these so-called sports analysts need to understand it's his behavior, his family members, and immaturity, insecurity, insensitivity, and ignorance of why you are being used by others.
Also the family especially his mother and father are Not Helping. They are young people who have a child who is a young father who didn't have the nurturing, conversations about, and isolation necessary to be prepared for the spotlight.
The NBA told his team they are Not Going to Be Lied to by Ja or his team. Incbluding your parents.
Wow 25 games this world is so soft now I pray no kids look.up to him he's pitiful and Adam silver is too
Okay the 25 game suspension was light but if there were additional clauses for it, like if he gets himself in similar situations again, then it would be automatic no discussion another 100 games suspension plus a million dollar fine.
WHEN HE DO IT AGAIN ADAM SILVER GO SAY OK SO SINCE THIS IS THE THIRD TIME IM GIVING U 27 GAMES
I’m with Rob, Im pessimistic Ja behaviour will really change. Hope I’m wrong because he’s a baller man. Memphis got chance to do something going forward
I think Rob Parker peed a little after that last STOP! 😂😂😂😂
Well my momma used to say you can’t make grown folks do anything
This punishment is still to light! We're is David Stern when you need him!
Feeding worms
@@samualjohnson5450 that's cruel bro
Honestly why can't people accept that this is who Ja is, he's always going to be in the news for stupid things. No amount of counselling can fix making bad decisions either you got sense or don't.
25 games suspension is laughable question is can Ja practice with the team at the teams facilities during the suspension??
It was 1st confirmed gun issue i dont even call it a offense. Remember the 1st actual offense he had gun on work property. I beleve they are punishing him for his lifestyle of interacting to heavily with the street element which i would agree, but you shouldnt be able to give the man 25 gms for bringing harm to himself
so he has to live his life according to ADAM Silver, huh ? Not one crime committed. Adam Silver is his father now
@@BillyG.O.A.TMedia in the end its a culture then remember when stern changed dress code because he didn't like or though how the brothers dressed wasn't kool. He didn't do his projections because that swag actually brought larger audience to NBA.
@@kirkbennett2398 The DRESS CODE WHEN AT A GAME. He can't tell you how to dress outside of that. It's baloney and you guys sound absolutely ridiculous trying to come up with reasons he should be suspended
The ending LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If that was Allen Iverson they would have made him an example
He not even missing half the season he’ll be fine but Adam silver funny asl for being dramatic leading up to this decision as if he was fina be harsh about it 😂
This is super star privilege. He looks like a good kid but he acts like big fool.. This punishment is too light .. He will do it again..
another slap on the wrist
These are grown men who know right from wrong I don't see Broussard and parker doing stupid things or fox would fire them right
I'd bet money the NBA went lightly while also knowing the NBA PA would fight it and they'd get their star player back sooner
The NBA will make billions with or without Ja. Ja is more valuable to Memphis than the NBA. Lately, Ja has either been injured or involved in nonsense off the court so he ain't been helping the NBA make money. Adam Silver is just a soft commissioner.
Ja screw chasing the jumper. You get a man of the year award out of this. Youre the GOAT of fool trickery.
25 what a joke. Adam is soft like the league😊
Black privilege at its finest right here
They should just have their own leaugue.
The NBA is trying to protect this little kid because their business partners are invested in him. Ja lied to Adam and Adam only wants to give him a slap on the wrist.
He should be happy the NBA gave him another slap on the wrist with only 25 when with all the information they've got on him he should've gotten at the very least half a season and wouldn't have argued with 50 because he needed to really get the book thrown at him to get him to grow up and really get help
He didn’t do anything to deserve 25 games. He ain’t hurt no one. He ain’t threatened no one.
@@32jaysmooth🤦🏾♂️
@@32jaysmooth The NBA has its own sets of rules and bylaws like any other business, so yes, he did do something to deserve a suspension and a lot longer than the tap on the wrist he got last season when the alien Silver tapped him on the wrist and put him in the corner for 3 games. He's got a laundry list of things that he's done and the worst of it is threatening a teenage boy with a gun last year, then the incident with the Pacers security as well last year and I could keep going but you should check it out instead. You could easily argue 40-50 games
@32jaysmooth look up all the incic8dents surrounding him. Actually he has hurt someone and he has threatened people
@@jeanwilde5357the rest are accusations, lol by that logic shouldn’t Kobe have been permanently banned from the NBA for his rape accusation ?
NBAPA so soft on and off the court
Look at Antonio Brown he got all the help in the world he's still the same
AB doesnt want helps, he wants to be "free like a bird", lol.
Football + Kanye = AB
Keep it up he go be dunking on niggas in the church league for free 😂😂
I wonder if Silver was yawning when "Duh"'s letter was read to him or when he read JM's statement. He should be lucky he only got a 25-game suspension. It could have been 30, maybe 35. The association can complain all they want. Remember that Brady brought his suspension to court and lost.
Chris is 100% right. Do whatever you want Ja, just keep it off Social Media. It's really not that hard.
Ja just needs to google. Time. Man of the year. 1938 i believe. Youve almost got him with this chatGPT.
This chat gpt is approaching daffy duck on the old peace treaty ja. He's not liking it.
And no not Michael Scott. That was a copycat from a real thing.
LOL THE END
They suspended a player who had FELONY domestic violence charges for 30 games! How is 25 for not doing anything illegal not fair?!?
"If none of this woke him up, I doubt 50 games will"
THEN WHY PUNISH HIM AT ALL?!?!
Punishment serves two purposes:
1. Punish the guilty party.
2. Deter others from following in the guilty’s footsteps.
Principal
@@JJ-Toreddie Nah, you mean OPTICS..
@@chillin8099
Try answering the question posed.
Didn't ask anyone to define words
@@darrengordon-hill I did, you asked why punish him at all and I gave you the two reasons why they punished him.
Another slap on the wrist. Adam Silva showing weak leadership here! 42 game minimum!
STOP !!!!!!
BOOSIE BETTER HOPE ADAM SILVER IS THE JUDGE IN HIS CASE 🤷🏿♂️
I thought for sure he would've gotten at least half the season
This will not end it Chris. You living in a foolish world. The boy didnt even take responsibility. He claimed it was a toy gun. He aint gone stop.
They were never going to suspend him half the season or the whole season, the NBA is still a business and JA is a major part of making them money, even JA knows this, this probably has a lot to do with his behavior no fear of consequences, 25 games is basically still preseason nobody's really watching because of football until after December
This is the same Broussard that 2 weeks ago argued that the fake gun made the act not punishable. Flip flopping and disingenuous media person.Why wouldn't Rob call him out?
I think Adam Silver knows Ja will do this again. If he suspends him for a season this year, what will he do next year? Ban him from the NBA for waving a gun outside of NBA facilities?
It surprised me that he's had 2 years of college, which should help with maturity at the very least. Maybe he needed antoher 2 years. Wishing him the best.
Lol idk why people think college=maturity. Especially in todays society. Lol no no no
Amount of college doesn't equate to maturity. Worked in an office of 80 professionals, ran my own company, and been around thousands of people in business and social atmosphere. I'd say how you were raised has most to do with it.
@MIGGYME1 it's precisely how you were raised!
@@jerryb5631it’s not how you were raised. It’s how the child receives how he was raised. I’m from the hood just like most bruthas. I had a two parent home. My father worked to become a lawyer, and my mother worked to become an accountant. I was a child that received 90% of what my parents said. I became a lawyer as well. My best friend of 42 years was raised by a single mother in the straight up projects. He became a doctor. Our other best friend had a two parent home. His father worked for the city, and his mother worked at the hospital in medical records. He sold drugs, did a stint in jail (18 months), bounced around a few jobs throughout.
So, yes, how you raise your child is in the equation, but the other part of that equation is how the child receives his guidance.
An example, from the age of six, I was not allowed to hug men in my family as a kid. My father made me look my uncles and older cousins in the eye and shake their hand at 6 years old. He prepared me to be a man that early. As a teenager, since I was out and about and it was the crack era, he incorporated a father/son day where sports wasn’t allowed to be talked about. The conversation was about life lessons such as getting girls pregnant and what would happen, drugs, how to recognize trouble/hustle, and in my later teenage years how to build credit, how to manage your time to accomplish your goals, songs to look for in a woman.
I received those talks because I trusted my parents to steer my right due to how they lived. My father even went as far as taking a condom, poking holes in it, giving me the condom to open, and pouring water in it to show me how girls can trap you if you didn’t have a Jimmy wrapper on you. And, when we got home, mama would ask me what we talked about today every single time.
And, he always said to me as a kid, “I’m not your friend. I’m not supposed to be cool to you. I’m your coach and teacher. The only difference between me and your sport coaches is I love you and I’m going to be here forever for you no matter what. You listen to your coaches when they teach you something, right? You listen to your teacher when you’re learning, right? Well, why wouldn’t you listen to the man who loves you and will do anything to protect you?” That hit hard at an early age, and it’s true.
@@MIGGYME1 Strongly disagree. Four years between 18-22 is like a decade of growth, especially with the right people around you. Just think if Zion had at least 3 years w/Coach K and the Duke staff. More focus, less injured, better conditioning. Guys are always better off w/that experience.
Okay nobody wants to say it, so I will… here we go… stop hanging with Ninjas 🥷🏻!!!!!!!!! Yes I’m black 😮
Another slap on the wrist, I honestly thought he was suspended for 82 games
If Ja needs something to center him or at least think before he goes online,when you are loosing money that you already earned and the nba would have gladly rewarded you by pushing you to the moon once steph was gone...its only a matter of time before people realize he cant be a number 1 in a title winning team then hes really going to be stressed cos so far people have been praising him for his dunks.
It seems the NBAPA exist to oppose all decisions management makes about players. I thought the man was going to get 40 games.
Unions can see that the employer's bank account is zero and still tell them to go on strike for bonuses. The NBPA wants the NBA to release Ja Morant's dirty laundry now because the suspension was not based on just the "toy" gun incident.
