He said later that it wasn't intended to be a gun, but a halfway middle finger?! What B.S. I liked that guy based on his highlights, but it's looking like the bad character reports based on the altercation in the parking lot are holding more true. Especially after the Vegas shooting, this is just really tone deaf, not to mention inappropriate, and an obvious lie on top of it. What a sh*tshow in Phoenix this year.
That was clearly intended to be a gun. I had concerns about him also. Maybe this isn't a big deal we will see.
Speaking of Josh Jackson and the Suns here are some fun videos.
People are seriously upset about this? Yeah, it's a stupid thing to do in his position, but geez people really get their panties bunched up easily these days. Elementary kids get suspended for eating a flippen Poptart into the shape of a gun. I'd have been given the death sentence by the time I was 12 if these absurd rules applied when I was a kid... and I've never injured anybody.
It would be less of an issue if he didn't already have a history of doing dumb stuff and then lying about it.

True.
And Monster, I agree people get too worked up about stuff in general these days. It feels like we all go from zero to outrage in about 3 seconds. I also think fans get away with harassing the players on the court too much, so I'm sympathetic to their frustration. But mimicking shooting a fan like that is definitely a threatening gesture, and lying about something so obvious shows he's shameless and can't be trusted. On top of his history, it's not a good sign for the guy's character, that's for sure.
Man, I'm happy for Milwaukee. That is a franchise that has flown under the radar for a long time. Oh, they get in the playoffs now and again, but almost always lose in the first round. They have a legit MVP candidate on their hands now with Giannis and a pretty nice supporting cast.
