      If Silver had a hammer to swing, he already would've swung. David Stern wouldn't have let that fly. You listen to Silver talk and he sounds like he got fooled by Ja. HOW???? Everybody and their momma knew he was gonna do it again. How can this impotent fool say he was shocked? Are you kidding???? To even have this convo on tv he's basically begging for the court of public opinion to help him. This will not end well

      The biggest boss of a company is usually never spoken badly about out lout or in writing because of the easy "your fired" or suspended fallout. However, that does not mean that people don't like or support everything he does. Silver and Ja are actually both a like. Both have the ability to command a group, Silver with the "player conduct, I can suspend you for anything" and Ja with the "i am making 40M a year, I am the shot caller of this gang" and make them fall in line and do what they say. NBA just wants none of its players to own guns which makes absolutely no sense.

    Man is a certified labelled brand risk. No corporation, marketing team or big brand is gonna ever risk anything to do with him in the next several years.
    He also royally pissed off the big boss. Had a heart to heart with the man. And then he figuratively spit in that guys face.
    Man just torpedoed his chances at ever being elevated to a super star or hall famer.
    He also harmed his team brand and chemistry. Guess who is having second thought building their franchise around a player?
    Unless he is the second coming of Lebron, Curry, Jokic in terms of value as a player.

    Yea, depending on the relationship, I wouldn't put it past Memphis to trade Morant. I could see him getting a 40+ game suspension and, depending on Morants mentality, this could be a major blow to his career, which in turn majorly affects his team and the franchise. Instead of having a stellar career, his career could very well just be blah. If I had to guess, he'll make a strong comeback, but you never know with todays social media and constant barrage of backlash.

    On the matter of Doc Rivers getting canned: it's going to be real messed up when it comes out that the 76ers did that to appease Harden after Harden leaves the team anyway.
    It blows my mind that a team that probably would make the playoffs without Harden, and could probably replace him with someone less washed/less troublesome, which would be a net positive for the team, is still willing to go to lengths to keep him, vs getting rid of him & keeping a coach that clearly knows his stuff. Hopefully Rivers ends up somewhere better.
