Most people in this hobby are just completely dense or a sheep.

A narrative comes out and everyone follows it like clockwork not using any logic. The most recent narrative with Ja was that he can't shoot/didn't progress from year one to year two, not taking into account his injury or the kind of player he is (the kind that relies on his athleticism and drive less than shooting ability who also weighs 180 pounds soaking wet and puts his body at risk going to the rim like that all game). So his cards tanked. Obviously he can't play at 110% every night but brings it when it matters most. Just watch the games or even look at his game logs and see when he pops off vs when he is deferential. Seems simple enough in theory.

Last year the narrative was that a bunch of people at the same time were saying they liked Ja's long term outlook better than Zion and his cards pretty much caught up to Z. They dropped to about 50% of Zion's prices before the playoffs began.

The same narrative game is happening in football right now. Some people recently started talking about how crazy Justin Herbert's prices are and giving examples of good/great QBs that don't sell for a fraction of him. People then overcorrect and his cards are going down because he was the example given, while Burrow and Tua are going up and getting close to Herbie's prices which are dropping. At the end of the season Burrow was sitting at maybe 60% Herbie comps and Tua was maybe 20-25%. I get that Burrow looks healthyish and Miami didn't draft a QB, but it's because Herbert has been the scapegoat in football for the crazy prices that he's dropping and the other QB's (who are also priced crazy by the same logic) aren't.

It's early in the trend and Herbie is probably going to drop even more this offseason, but if he comes out hot in Y2 some dope will find some new narrative and his stuff will spike. It's like clockwork in this industry.

surprised this thread isn't near the top of the BSKB section.



When it counts, this kid can ball.



I've been very impressed with him. From the "play in game" to this first round: he can flat out play.

Did this game go into triple overtime?

141-129? was any defense played at all? That is pathetic for a playoff game (even a reg season game), absolutely pathetic. It's hard to take any of these offensive stats seriously

Well, if you consider a longer time horizon, one could make an argument that you are buying early in the "rise." Who knows if this is a blip, or if the bottom was set for Ja

Dude, you're a ray of sunshine today!


Do you dislike puppies too?


Having a bad day? Or is it just my luck the two threads I happened to comment in today had you rage slamming the NBA?



and FYI: Some games are high scoring. Better than the 80-78 snoozefests in the past.

I'm not slamming the NBA, just stating the obvious. Everyone has got their bloomers wet for Ja Morant now but what is he actually doing? Scoring alot on a turnstyle defense. It's nice to see him not shooting bricks, i'll give you that.

High scoring is one thing, 141-129 is all star game level D, it's embarrassing.

youngest player to score that many points in his first two playoff games since George Mikan: like a billion years ago.

Good for me, what are you talking about? That's the response of someone that knows that I'm right and has no response other then that nonsense. I enjoy basketball, not free layups for 4 quarters. I'm not asking for a 92-88 score, I'm asking for the slightest bid of effort on defense. Is this that hard to understand?

what's hard to understand is your claim that you enjoy basketball, when you admittedly don't actually watch much of, and complain about the box score of a game you presumably didn't even watch.

Ja’s buckets are most certainly not cheap. People see “lay up” on ESPN’s game cast and perceive this as an easy uncontested event, never mind that the shot was created by a nasty crossover or series of fakes and then floated over a defender in his face.

The same type of criticism would be directed at Zion from people who clearly never watched him play and would say things like “he can’t create his own shot.”

May 2021: Ja marginalized for the same things Zion was May 2020 when Ja was being celebrated.
