That’s an easy answer because what Giddey is being accused of isn’t socially acceptable to make fun of especially in this age and climate.

Even the Silver parody tweet someone posted a few days ago wasn’t funny at all and why they put that disclaimer under the comment on Twitter.
I missed that one.

they kicked pat bev off the show after this
incredible really. when its time to say "x needs to surround himself with better people, the folks he surrounds himself with will undoubtedly lead to his demise - if its not this incident then *surely* it will be the next" there's a segment on every time block.

"who is going to step up and be a mentor :mjpls: this isn't what our league is about"

and so on

Unless its Ja Morant...

Several things with the Ja Morant thing:

1. There were several incidents prior to the gun flashes IG posts that the Grizzlies and NBA fronts office swept under the rug.
2. When the FIRST gun flash IG post happened at the Denver club, the NBA did wait until AFTER the Denver police handled their investigation. And despite the Denver police didn't find any sufficient proof on both of it being a real gun or a toy gun. It was then the NBA decided to suspend him a few games which coincided with him being out for injury anyway.
3. After Ja lied to Silver's face and did it again, Silver did delay any suspension until AFTER the playoffs because he said he didn't want that to distract that from the playoffs.

I say this to say that Ja Morant wasn't immediately suspended. It was always delayed based on what the police investigation says or other reasons by Adam Silver. So, Silver has been consistent in what he says. He's just waiting for whatever confirmation by the local police investigation with Giddey.

*insert Juelz gif*

Ja had the gun in Denver and was told to stay away immediately while they "investigated"

MLB got Wander Franco up outta there immediately for the same shyt Giddey is accused of

But now when it's Giddey, or more specifically, a cac, NOW ya wanna be nuanced and apply context:camby:

Did it though?

He was always going to be asked the question about the situation by the media the moment he stepped to the mic for an interview whether it was Malika who did it or not. That’s what a journalist would do.


The were absolutely dragging their feet in addressing this and would have preferred to avoid it all together.


Miss me with this bootlicking bullshyt.

As a gun owner, the Ja shyt confused me from the get go. If a nikka being a dumbass off the court but not harming anybody is suspension worthy, it should be a lot more nikkas being suspended.

But after reading some commentary I was like "ok cool. Ja didn't break any laws, but playing around with guns is a bad image for the league and he's a league employee. Players have a code of conduct to abide by above and beyond the law. Makes sense".

But this shyt is acceptable under that same NBA code of conduct? fukk outta here. Free my nikka Ja :childplease:

Is there any proof of anything else, age or date?

you gonna suspend him for a code of conduct violation based off what a pic with a girl saying I fukked Josh giddy, that aint enough

We seen Ja holding a gun twice,with our own eyes twice.

It's completely different
