There is nothing lamer than going out of your way trying to be cool. Ja Morant cannot stop himself from being the corniest guy in the world.
Last season, The NBA suspended Morant. He was forced to go to fake gangbanging rehab after being filmed shirtless and waving his gun at a strip club.
He has learned absolutely nothing from that punishment as he is still flashing guns on Instagram Live.

So after having his entire season derailed with off-the-court nonsenseāincluding rushing to the mall to threaten a security guard or beating up a teenager because he embarrassed you on a basketball courtāJa decided to get right back to the bullshit of flashing guns on Instagram.
Everything I read about Ja Morant makes it abundantly clear that he’s a 23-year-old guy who thinks he’s invincible.
I have a CVS receipt’s worth of speeding tickets from being 23 and not caring if I drove 100mph through a storefront because I didn’t care about long-term consequences. Been there, done that.
It sucks that Ja will most likely face a lengthy suspension due to his desperate need to constantly let the world know how tough he is. There is nothing lamer than recording yourself in your car blasting rap and waving weapons. If I knew him in real life, I would see these corny videos and immediately send them in a group text with mutuals to roast him for being a dweeb online.
Who is Ja even doing all of this for? He’s certainly not doing this for the hoes. The shirtless, bird-chested dude is not swimming in girls. Girls aren’t lusting over Ja holding up his guns at a strip club. The hoes aren’t flocking to the weirdo who tries to fight mall security cops.
Ja Morant is a drunk. He gets a little alcohol in his system and starts cosplaying as Mitch from Paid In Full.

Until Ja sits down and actually does the work and looks internally to find out why he has to chug bottles of tequila and constantly tell everyone that he has a gun on him, he will never reach the particular level of success his natural basketball talents can provide for him.
We’ve seen so many dynamic point guards like Ja have their careers shortened from knee injuries. Baron Davis, Steve Francis, Derrick Rose, John Wall, Russell Westbrook. All had their primes abruptly ended when their ACLs popped and slapped to the hardwood.
Ja Morant has been relatively healthy despite running full speed into defenders night after night. Yet, we still might see his prime wasted. My man loves being drunk and pretending to be the star of Paid in Full.
It sucks that Ja Morant’s obsession with being the hardest guy in the yard has not only forced us all to care about a little violation of team protocols and blah blah. Now annoying folks are using Ja as an opportunity to score points online by coming down extra hard on a black kid to get high-fives from their racist buddies.
There are real-world consequences of a young, rich, black man constantly daring negativity and violence to meet him at his front door. Let’s add he’s in the city of Memphis where goons have no problem calling your bluff. Ja could lose his life over this nonsense.
For me, it seems like Ja just wants to be a drunk local with his homies. Have you seen some of the buildings he’s hanging out in? My man is hanging in local dive bars that have memorabilia from the high school down the road where the owner used to play football 20 years ago.
I reckon I’m jealous and annoyed that Ja Morant makes a bajillion times more dollars than I do yet he can’t stop having the same poor-ass drunk weekends I have. 1
Ja Morant flashed his gun again because he wanted a suspension.
He wants to be drunk and messy with his lame-ass friends. I hope Ja gets what he wants.
There are guys in the NBA desperate for minutes. If Ja doesn’t want to be there, he can spend winter nights at the hookah spot instead of on an East Coast road trip making millions to work for like, 2 hours.
It’s tough feeling bad for these guys who double and triple down on their mistakes. Ja is a dork who would rather be a music video vixen than an NBA superstar. He and Dillon Brooks are going to dominate China in a decade. Shaq and Kobe of the South China Sea. Can’t wait. Ja vs. Jimmer is going to be a movie. Put his statue next to Stephon Marbury’s. Also, keep him away vasoline.
Is Ja Morant a dork for trying way too hard to be cool?Ā Leave a comment below. Respond on Twitter,Ā FacebookĀ orĀ Instagram. Or shoot me an email atĀ Deadseriousmailbag@gmail.com. Letās chat, bay-beeeee. Let me know if you think Ja Morant is actually cool so I can make fun of you.
- minus the guns though because flashing guns to show people how masculine you are is the corniest thing in the world and you are a straight-up loser if you have to pull out a weapon for clout.
