When did the NBA become high school and college and you need your daddy to be at every game home or on the road and always being the center of attention. Does he not understand that Ja is the one playing and not him??
When JJ said "apparently [Steven Adams] un-bunned his hair. It was let loose." I knew this segment was going to be special 🤣🤣🤣 This is the analysis we needed.
@Alonzo Galloway truth is, everybody on the GRizzles is "too small" to guard Bron, a 38 year old in 20th season. The dude is unreal, should just ram his way to the hole every freakin time. A true beast
Shannons apology was incredible, he showed love to the whole grizzlies team and was a true class act. I love the passion and lets be real, it was just a lot of barking on both sides, it wasnt that serious.
@Downey 2000 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 you got it bruh lmao. And because someone disagrees with you they must be riding Shannon 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️. Maybe I just disagree with you 🙄. Also The people actually don't decide. The league does.
@Ogwiseman83 you're still missing the point . You're biased your a Shannon nutt hugger we'll see in the future who's right or wrong the people will decide not you .
@Downey 2000 now you're just saying stuff to try to fit what you want. Shannon stayed on the sideline when he checked Brooks. They all came towards him. And again Brooks initiated something disrespectful to the point that Shannon felt he had to check him. ja jumped in, then jas dad jumped in. So again if Brooks initiated the problematic behavior, How are you so concerned with someone responding and matching his energy but not concerned with the player causing the issue. Especially a player who has a long history of being problematic. Unlike Shannon
@Ogwiseman83 Shannon ran in to the court and called brooks out like a G . He should have gotten kicked out for that anyone else would have . That's the point .
Shannon said he was cooled down .... he didn't apologize for being a real man though. Ja and his weakling dad learned a quick lesson before they were knocked out.
@Dudapest Funk watched it and nobody was holding sha sha. But that dude was pushing funaki as hard as he could. And steven wasn’t budging. His teammate was being bullied. And he said bully me hall of famer.
@CheemsDuku ya he can be cool and all that. Like I said you can find the same stories bout Shannon. Who cares. It's just weird that yall act like you know him personally and seen him put the beats on people when he has not. Nobody knows what would happen but jump on Adam's cause he's the nba strongman. To who? It's the NBA. Ain't nobody fighting and he knows that. All that being in the front is camera work and ratings
Never seen a more JJ tweet I actually laughed out loud when everyone was freaking out over the situation and JJ is just like "that is a fire cardigan."
It's hilarious because this is from a Seinfeld episode- when Kramer, and Spike Lee have a confrontation with Reggie Miller. All 3 are tossed from the arena, and then go to the strip club together.
They keep talking about Shannon’s cardigan like it’s the most expensive thing on him but his Jordan 1 Dior’s on his feet costs around $8k-$12k depending on the size 😂
That makes me think he is dumb. We know he's rich, shouldn't be wearing a car around town unless its valuable to his image. Just wear high end Versace or Ralph Lauren, its good enough.
The Grizzlies would've ignored him if he was "any other fan", but because he was a figure in the media, they started to talk back to him. Let's not pretend fans on the sideline don't talk smack. If the Grizzlies had a problem with what Shannon said, they should've just told the refs to remove him from the game... But instead they talk back to him and approached him, which also put them at fault, as now, Shannon has a "right" to defend himself.
@Siya Mafuya you’ll have to ask them but they seem to try to embody the tough image of old Grizz teams despite being a more finesse ball club. Veteran players will take advantage of their sensitivity in the playoffs tho
@Clement ok I have watched the nfl and something I won’t do is STFU. Huge respect for MJ and magic Johnson but MJ is not going to go to an nfl game and treat it like a basketball game. You are a fan on the side lines who bought tickets to watch no be in the court
@Siya Mafuya better to b a has bin, than a never was. I can tell u probably never watch nfl games, Or even saw him play football. , cause if u did u would STFU. That's like saying football players shouldn't respect michael Jordan or magic Johnson.
Wow! He is a stand up man for apologizing and admitting that he was wrong. I respect the hell out of that man. Kudos to him. He could of gave just a simple or basic apology to the fans at the game, the players, and his network and called it a day. But he gave an exclusive and exquisite apology to the entire nation and his family, and the man he got into the altercation with. Mad love for Shannon.... ❤️🔥
Shannons apology was incredible, he showed love to the whole grizzlies team and was a true class act. I love the passion and lets be real, it was just a lot of barking on both sides, it wasnt that serious.
@Madisyn Issaquah ……I…….am………aware…..of……that……I…….passed……2nd…….grade…..I…….can…….read……. I’m rebuking the claim that asking 5 people if something is a good idea is conducive of successful ideas lmao. That’s putting far too much faith in your fellow man. There’s always gonna be 5 morons you could ask to credit whatever bad idea you suggest. Something I noticed about billionaires is they all have their own method of success. Just because it worked for them doesn’t mean it’s gonna work for you. Let’s not act like these billionaires are just normal guys who made it work. They more times than not have every advantage and damn near limitless resources. They can afford to take risks. Most can’t. I like how your trying to flip this around like I’m dumb. You literally thought I made up mass hysteria. Get off CS-vid and pick up a book once in a while.
Thank you JJ. No one in the sports media has said a word regarding this incident. A normal fan would have been escorted out and season ticket cancelled.
The genetics & the dedication to the steroids is impressive. He has had both hips replaced before 55 though, so there’s a price to pay for the prolonged steroid usage & looking like that in your mid 50s.
I'm totally, 100 percent, with Shannon Sharpe. And it was a good this it didn't escalate and he was able to still be there and watched and finished the game. It was a bonus that his team, Lebron's Lakers won the game as well.
When JJ said "apparently [Steven Adams] un-bunned his hair. It was let loose." I knew this segment was going to be special 🤣🤣🤣 This is the analysis we needed.

It can be seen as special treatment letting him stay because he is a celebrity, but I think because he is a celebrity everyone realized the situation was not going to get worse and spiral into an all out brawl like it could with a random fan.
I saw JJ lose his last college bball game in Atlanta 2005. He walked off the court w/ his head down in disgust. I have always disliked Duke as a U of Michigan loyal fan but I will say I have respected everything he has gone on to achieve in his life & nba life. I always found myself rooting for him, I hated they lost to LSU his last year
So let me get this right Shannon Sharpe didn’t move from his spot and was approached by the grizzlies who are salty because Shannon said they never won anything for a team that run they mouth. Shannon should be put out the arena? He told Dillion he couldn’t guard Lebron and Dillion reacted emotionally and said F you and Shannon said no F you . Then players start walking over to him . Get outta here
Shannon is an older guy who of course has a lot going on for himself career wise, as a corporate guy. As accomplished as he is as a HOF Football Player, his popularity has peeked post retirement, in the arena he’s in and he seems to be really enjoying it. With that said it’d be wise for Shannon to slow his roll and not become intoxicated with his newfound widespread fame and stop allowing his legion of online fans to gas him up with the “tough guy” act because frankly he looks really foolish
Going to give you another chance and keep 99% of this to myself because I think your podcast is great and I like your content. But your current call of the grizzlies vs warriors game is sub par at best. But just one note, grizzlies and warriors is not a rivalry.
It's funny, cuz on Twitter yesterday, Shannon actually posted a picture of the cardigan and who it was by while thanking his stylist for keeping him fresh 😂
I find it very interesting that people love Shannon Sharpes apology and call him an extremely mature adult, but are the same ones that keep extremely petty arguments going online when they know they were proven wrong. Why do people look up to people for the things that they should be doing themselves? I have never seen someone apologize when they were proven wrong in an online argument.
Shannon was fine, he never entered the court. He taunted Brooks so he cursed him and Shannon said come here and say it. It made the Griz look weak, they can trash talk but they can't take it apparently unless Adams backs them up
The grizzlies are fun and exciting no doubt. But at some point they need to have some class and play good basketball. All that talking and chirping and dancing and griddy is tasteless. Ja Morant hits a fade away floater that bounces around the rim hits the backboard and drops in and he hits a dance and points at a 7 day contract player “you can’t guard me”. Shannon is a man who’s done it at the highest level. Has the numbers the wins the Super Bowl hardware. Respect the game or the game will make you respect it.
@juno shay literally yelled i'm right here multiple times. he challenged brooks to a fight and then had to be physically restrained by refs and grizzlies personnel from tee morant.
@Jumpy Henderson He didn’t cause it though. They came up to him, what are you not understanding???🤦🏽♂️He was trash talking like any other fan and Brooks got in his feelings just because the trash talk was coming from Shannon. If it was coming from any other fan they would’ve just ignored it.
@juno nice circular reasoning. nba has a strict fan policy since malice at the palace i dare you personally to go to an nba game sit courtside and cause an altercation. see if you last 5 more minutes in that seat. it doesn't matter if he said or stepped anywhere, causing an altercation gets you ejected in 99.9% of cases
Didn’t any of the Grizzles players take responsibility for their part? The Grizz are really the ones who escalated everything. They’re the ones who walked over to him
I blame the Memphis players for the entire incident. Instead of staying over by their bench on the opposite side of the court, they walked across the court to confront Shannon. Just focus on the game instead of beefing with hall of famer/celebrity/sports talk host.
Yes, he should have absolutely been removed from the arena. Any “normal” fan would have had to go. It was like Will Smith slapping Chris Rock and being able to just sit back down and receive an a standing ovation later on in the night.
It’s deff LA! Every other city and Sharpe would’ve had to go. Even though I thought that was funny that he took on the whole team. But it is giving a bad example. The average Joe is gonna try what Sharpe did next time.
What blows my mind is how Dillon Brooks started ALL THIS but bc he’s always barking and then running away, no one even brings him up in relation to this whole thing 😂😂 dude wasn’t even in most of the videos he ran so fast, Steven Adams had to step up
Thanks JJ, I totally agree. He should have been kicked out and possibly banned for attending any other NBA game. He walked onto the court and that’s totally unacceptable. Had it been any other fan that’s exactly what would have happen.
Just comparing the way Oakley was treated at MSG when he said nothing to this incident it doesn't seem right that he was allowed to stay and Oak got manhandled
I’ll say this on Shannon’s behalf, He said that Dillon Brooks cursed him first. I believe that. Which you hear NBA players curse fans all the time. If you notice, Shannon never left his spot the whole incident. The Memphis grizzlies players came over to him.
Great job the security preventing players getting closer to him (take a look at Steven Adams reaction to check that). This question about Shannon is highly debatable, but can you imagine if a player even touches him whilst he is at his seat? That's no malace at the palace but a player could get away for a long time for that
It would've been wild if they told Shannon "You have to leave. The Cardigan can stay, though." Then they cut to his seat and it's just the Cardigan drapped over the chair🤣🤣🤣🤣
They let him stay cuz he didn't actually do anything. He said Brooks was too small for Bron. Brooks then crossed the line being disrespectful for no reason. Once you go that route then it's on. Shannon didn't step on the floor, he stood in front of his seat and didn't do anything they all came to him. So although he was yelling he didn't start it and he definitely didn't instigate. Brooks started it and kept goin but was nowhere to be found lmao
@Jilla’s Leaks because he said you to small for Bron.. and Brooks wanna start running his mouth disrespectfully at that... If Brooks said nothing and let Shannon go off, they throw him out but ppl know how Brooks is... It's a different situation when u talkin to someone who resides in the smoking section and want all of it. U can't say whatever u want to ppl and be rude cuz u feel like it
Lmaoo Unc Shannon was able to stay the rest of the game according to JJ was cause he was wearing a fire cardigan 😭😂. I had to rewatch this a couple of time cause JJ is outta control for this one 😅
@shaft9000 Shannon was just doing what court side seats does. They can talk smack to players, they been part of the game. Grizz player got his feelings hurt, and the trash team they are wanted to act like he is tough.
3:10 that’s on the players hand to kick 🦵 him ….he did not insulting them , usually is the home team kicking people out not the visiting team unless is a superstar
Who said they can’t take it? All they do is lose 1 or 2 games and go on to win at least 10 straight . The Grizzlies have been very consistent to who they are
Wow. The fact that a small guard like JJ is the same height as a guy as huge as Shannon made me realize how unreal and freakish NBA players are. I mean... LBJ, Giannis, Dwight, Shaq... Are they even still humans or are they Titans?
Yeah but they dont fit the bill, they are in the middle of the nba in fouls, so they arent bad boys, and they clam up in bad situations and try to make peace after, then ja gets it going again lol. They do tons of charity work as a team their whole mo is about the future so they have kids included in everything for example trip (jaren jackson jr) has a pre game routine with a little 7 yo girl who passes him the ball in shoot around, shes been doing it since she was 4. All of them have their kids at the game, even though they are 2nd youngest team in nba. And are often in social media posts etc doing cute kid things. These guys are great to watch, and they are trying to be stand up good guys for the fans, and the rest of the nba are pushing the villian plotline. It seems like they are focused on the bigger picture. They arent perfect though and are still kids themselves esp ja and dillon getting into trouble outside work.
I mean what did Shannon say that any other fan wouldn't have said "you can't check lebron you mean Dylan said f u to shannon because of that. Dillion couldn't handle it and then got scared when sharpe said you don't want this.
Shannon Sharpe was a paying customer and said nothing out of bounds that other fans scream during the game. Fans are well within their right to do so, this includes Shannon. Grizzlies players are the ones who started acting unprofessional in this situation, Shannon just responded with equal energy. Mr. Sharpe is not at fault here. Players should not engage in confrontational behavior with fans of any status in life. If there is a problem, the refs and security's job is to suggest and carry out removals, not fake thug acting Grizzlies players. Sorry, it's just the truth, and I am not a Lakers fan. Basketball fans are getting sick of the disrespectful fake thuggery act from the Grizzlies. And what f*cking coach supports this behavior in representing their team?
Last time I checked fans yell and scream at players all the time what was the issue with Shannon yelling at the players. Adams was wrong for going over and physically confronting him
Shannon wanted all the smoke at dillion by engaging and saying “come here”. What’s brooks going to do? Fight someone on the stands? He was walking off the court. Shannon was upset that dillion was cussing him out but then saying “come here and say it” is so unnecessary like for what. He’s already saying what he needs to say to you across the court. But if you wanted someone to “come over” knowing dillion is a smaller person and Shannon knowing he can take him on. In comes steven adams and man bigger than him
In all fairness before he started getting pushed Shannon stood in his seat the entire time. Brooks came with the disrespectful energy Shannon just matched it!... Just saying!
