When is this stupid arse story going to die? Is JJ even going to play again?

I'm fricking over this. It's beyond stupid that a washed up has been continues to get this much attention.

I don't think anyone is lying, I just think that JJ is completely in the wrong and is being naive by thinking that we would cater to his wishes.

if JJ actually had any value on the court, we might have gotten some decent offers from an Northeastern team. It's his fricking fault for being such a garbage shooter last year

Then don’t be a scum bag & say other wise

Pretty easy solution to make your small market a little more desirable

Yep, if JJ wasn’t washed up, he could have gone someplace he wanted.

JJ said he handled this himself instead of doing what players normally do and leave it to his agent.


Wasn’t JJ down here in part, to eventually be folded into a front office position? I believe that was scuttlebutt back in the day.

Now if that were the case I could see why he would attempt to handle it on his own if he felt he had that relationship with Griff and Langdon.

JJ having a platform, (and not a team currently) is not good for us. A team would real him in.

If he does want a FO career anywhere he should sftu anyway.

I don't know where that rumor started. If you listened to more than a few episodes of his podcasts you could tell his future plans were not even remotely compatible with the grind of coaching or front officing.

No one respects Griff as a GM. Yet y’all will simply defend him because he is the GM of your team. Griffin is an assclown who lied to JJ

In no reality is JJ in the right around this situation.

People can hate Griffin all they want, but Griffin would deserve more hate for this situation playing out as JJ would have wanted it to play out.

This situation should point to JJ never being approached by a league organization for anything after the way he handled this one.

Assuming what JJ says is true, how is he in the wrong?

If he had played mediocre, not even well, we might not have had to trade him. If he could have knocked down wide open threes, we would have been in playoff contention.

Since he couldn't, the market was weak, and that arse wipe should understand that as well as anyone. Basketball is a business, one in which a white guy with limited defense and athleticism who can't make shots should not be able to try to call the shots
