The funny thing is, I'm hesitant. Obviously, there's plenty of people to talk about how ridiculous it is. It does clearly seem like it's an assault rifle gun gesture. I understand. I appreciate, David, you acknowledging that you may not be sure, but it feels like it falls specifically in that category. Yeah.

But I also think about John Morant, and I think Zion falls in this category also, and Anthony Edwards falls in this category. I complain often about the early professionalization of youth sports and how we get kind of all these athletes who are trained to be boring. Robots. And uninteresting, and they play that way, and they act that way. And John Morant's not one of those guys.

And so I appreciate that John Morant skyrocketed in his popularity because of the way they played, and not because of the gun stuff, but because he was interesting. And I like that. But sometimes what comes along with that is he hasn't been polished.

He's a rougher rock that hasn't been through this AAU, this Nike circuit that 12-year-old talented basketball players have gone through, which is how you end up with a player like Jason Tatum, right? who plays incredibly well and says nothing that I care about.

listen here you have an opportunity to really have a problem because he already lost out on the full max deal that he could get because of the issues he had so is someone actually helping him that's what the agent is supposed to be for i'm not sure that anyone's in his ear at this point like he's it feels like the people believe that he ran the coach out like he has all the power that he needs in an organization right now and i think that just to um push back on something that you said a little bit ago

I don't even necessarily think that it has to do with where the player came from as much as these things are kind of pop culture things that are gestures. Like, you'll see guys hit a three and shoot the three guns where it doesn't matter where they come from. I think that that's the question and how close the NBA wants to be aligned to those things. Obviously, they don't.

Absolutely. So, yeah, I guess I don't know. The thing that jumped out to me about this is that they're doing an investigation. I don't think you need an investigation. No. What's the fine for doing gun gestures? Get that man the fine. Unless you plan on suspending him because of his history, this feels odd to me.
