We shouldn't discount the possibility of him being in trouble with criminals. Crypto and betting are hotspots for crooks and mafia-like organisations. Remember the crooks showing up to SGA new house because it was previously inhabited by some crypto scammer.
@@timluo6120asking family for money isn't easy and can be rife with drama depending on the family dynamic. Plus, he might have some inferiority complex.
MPJ is an absolute stud. I grew to really like him on his curious Mike pod but given everything he’s going through currently with his brothers and he’s still helping lead the nuggets to sweeping the Lakers, I hope there are all star selections in his future.
Bra I'm damn near 7 months clean off fentanyl n my big bro jus got locked up Oct 4th 2023 .... Its bad and good I guess cuz I got clean officially on the 15th same month. I alrey was frfr jus kinda needed a perk cuz missed big homie. FMB BRIAN/PURK EPs
Two things #1 I live close to where he Jontay played and he was a beast In high school #2 the reason that they are cursed with injury is because for as long as I can remember i heard stories of them playing all the time summer winter you name it they played all the time so there will definitely be some wear and tear
@@jumpy2xstreamingit's definitely genetics sometimes, with a touch of knowing how to push yourself, how to plant, move and land. Also, bones and cartilage need to be protected when you're young. There's no 100% healing from ligaments, tendons, and stuff, even the best surgeries are only trying to get you back to where you naturally were, and sports players usually don't take the time they should. People like Lonzo Ball did not respect that lmao
@@do3807 man honestly I don’t even wanna see Lonzo back on the court cause at this point he’s heading to completely disabling himself in his old age. Dude should take that money start a business and retire never look back, his career is already a bust anyway
@@jumpy2xstreaming i hate to tell someone to give up their dream but yeah I agree. If only so he can still walk pain free and healthy for the rest of his life
I see A.M. Hoops on my feed, I click! The enthusiasm in your delivery makes me want to start drunk-debating bball with my imaginary friends! Great channel, keep up the the good work
It’s sad because injuries screwed him over… Seems reasonable to me . Why? It’s not sad because he took to gambling? That seems sad to me too… Not saying he should be let off for it or anything - but it’s still sad. Something can require consequences and accountability, but still be sad…
Yeah he deserves everything he got just because he bet on himself… literally zero remorse for a guy who’s career was basically over after 2 acl tears. You only see him as a player and not a human
Drop a video about the new age taking over and we done with the 2010s. I'd vs ant. Bron vs jokic. Shai. / And 90s basketball style just more 3s with these big line ups. Pls
I only kind of feel bad for Michael defending his brother earlier on only to find out the truth,as far as Jontay goes faking those injuries and money is bad enough as it is, but what the disrespectful part to me was betting on the team that was trying to give you a chance in the first place, hopefully he learns from what he's done and we can hopefully be done with it sooner rather then later and we can get along with our rebuild
A simile: a figure of speech involving the comparison of one thing with another thing of a different kind, used to make a description more emphatic or vivid . He’s not saying one is better or worse.
Hi 👋🏽 woman here, I am a dummy when it comes to sports, and I need someone to break it down for me here and there. Please dont shame me. I am trying to understand. Anyway, your videos are great for people like me, Thank you 😊
Very sad story. NBA HQ Definitely made an example outta him. - Only wish they'd ban LeBron and Klutch Sports for all their conflicts of interest and paid-off (bought) LeMedia
Well they're not going to ban players that give them money lmao, it's a business and nobody cares if they ban a no name player, but a star ? They wouldn't. The only way they would do that is if the entire league's reputation is at stake.
It’s not like he was a difference maker. He was a bench player AT BEST. Thats why Silver made an example of him. If this were Lebron, Jokic or Steph… Silver would’ve never let it leak out 💯
Crazy. 5.2 mil after taxes is still fuck you money. You could just park money in some bonds & dividend paying stocks and not have to worry about a thing. 3% of 2 million, is 60k.
Jontay's real crime was trying to hustle the NBA mafia. And when you start winning a little the house will make sure you never take their money again because the house always wins.
I don't think he was making a million with the Raptors. More like half that. However, he would have got another contract with the team. Frustrating and unfortunate situation for Jontay and the Porter family!
I love how gambling is were the NBA puts their foot down but flashing a gun live twice, domestic abuse, drug abuse are just temporary suspensions 🤣 BUT if rigging performance got gambling gain … why is Scott Foster still a ref …
You can’t be objective about sports betting when you are getting paid by them - the losers in gambling far outweigh the winners it’s destructive to people lives but if it makes someone else a buck who cares about the damage
