Bill, can you stop obsessing about gambling!? You cannot gamble because you live in California and Fan Duel is illegal there. You are trying too hard to make money from your loyal fans placing bets on stupid picks you make.

Bill, not sure if it's a mystery looking at Ja situation, the new reality of instant news both positive and negative. The NBA is showing their concern with having a new young star (Ja is dynamic and a must watch) and the cost his behaviour can have not only in Memphis but with corporate NBA and sponsors. His current inability to manage influences within his circle has raised major concern within those who have access to pertinent information. the two gun videos, the assault on 17 year old, the mall issue with his mom, and negative impact that some within his circle has created a dynamic, that has put many on edge. Your comment on Mental Health holds true, along with Ja deciding what he really wants to accomplish. Layered on this issue is the financial reality with the new CBA. how does Memphis move forward as restrictions on dollars impact team decisions. I believe that withe the new CBA and Ja inability to make positive choices he could be hit with a 40 game suspension with clear
