Basketball players are some of the most pampered Black men on the planet.

- Gangs leave them alone, give them a pass.
- CACs love them
- They've never thrown hands
- Rappers love them
- Thots love them

Their minds are detached from reality.

I remember seeing Devin Booker trying to act tough :dead:

Yall remember the Nate Robinson fight.

Ain't nothin wrong with a family photo but seeing that after he talked all that gangsta shyt is :mjlol:
Y’all make the mistake of thinking street nikkas don’t start families with the intent of instilling everything they know, good and bad, in their seeds inside a loving environment.

My son is about Ja’s age in that pic and I made sure he learned karate and made him fight the lil nikkas his age from my hood whenever I went home.

My nikka 16 now, never made a C in his life, he has a few numbers in his phone he can make a nikka disappear if need be and a few to call if UVA, Columbia, or Harvard trip when he applies.

Being shortsighted gets a lot of nikkas hurt or embarrassed testing the wrong nikka.

I’m from the South is that isn’t the standard lingo of not only Southern BP, but BP across the state. C’mon bruh.


I’m two years younger than Ja and you will get clowned for using this lingo regularly. Same way we clownin’ dudes who wear shiesty masks everywhere rn.

He’s not even saying nun crazy? He’s the face of a franchise.. positioned to be one of the leading new faces in the NBA.. and has multiple endorsement deals. You CAN’T speak like this.. everybody OUTSIDE OF THIS THREAD understands this, which is why it’s newsworthy.
Props to you young bruh for having some sense.

Is threatening to run up on people with bullets, using gang lingo, “being” in the trenches and on. The same as calling a man a bum? Saying you’ve not been to the nba finals, same as saying you ain’t ready for gun play? :wtf:

Was Obama trying to show that he got O-block ties (Michelle) when he called Kanye a jackass? Or is jackass, unlike bum, not gang talk? :jbhmm:

Trash talk =/= street talk

"im coming to you then. tell em book dat shyt . im on yo block"

Next game on Christmas for the world to see? Tell the NBA to book it and it don't matter if it's at Golden State. I'll come to you.

"nah in da M. bring em to da trenches"


Nah put the game in Memphis. Let's see how they do in our arena (FedEx Forum known as The Grindhouse long before Ja got there)

Last 2
"cuz da money won't ever change me . been on dat , still on dat , forever on dat , won't ever speak on it" and "i'll be what im on , if iann hoop"

I been talking trash since day one. Yall just learning about it because I got a platform now. This is how I am whether I play basketball or not.

What was said never left the realm of the basketball court. If Ja and Draymond ran into each other over the summer, which NBA players happen to do, they'll acknowledge each other, maybe talk shyt like "we gonna bust yo ass next we face each other during the season" then KIM or get a quick run in on the court. No punches will be thrown and no guns will be drawn because that's not what any of this is about. This is a rivalry between the defending champs who are the OGs vs the young bucks who had the champs on the ropes the last time they played. This is how a rivalry in 2022 should be.

Read it again. There was no threat of violence. Both sides are drawing up interest for the game next season. Ja ain't looking at it like that, Dray ain't looking at it like that, NBA ain't looking at it like that. In fact, the NBA is salivating off the prospects of saving this game for Primetime on Christmas Day.

This isn't beef. It's basketball. Its not that deep. The only ones looking at it that deep are the ones who aren't even involved.
