Summary

Less than a week after allegations were made public that Ja Morant assaulted a teenager, for an encore, Morant took to Instagram Live brandishing a gun in a strip club. Morant is garnering sympathy from NBA alumni like Jalen Rose and Paul Pierce. Jason argues that the gangsta culture and the city of Memphis are seducing Morant into a lifestyle that’s detrimental to his future in the league — or is it? Maybe Nike and the hip-hop culture will make Morant more valuable in the long run. Former NBA first-rounder Royce White, Pastor Anthony Walker, Bryson Gray, and comedian Steve Byrne join the show to discuss Morant's recent downward spiral. Texas Tech head basketball coach Mark Adams has been suspended for “racially insensitive” comments he made toward a member of his team. Those comments were actually scripture the coach was using to teach his players teamwork and success. We are officially living in a world where the Bible is hate speech. “Fearless” contributors Steve Kim and T.J. Moe join the rest of the panel to share their thoughts on the coach's suspension. And we've saved the best: Jason strikes a match in his Fire-starter about Chris Rock’s Netflix special “Selective Outrage” and makes the case as to why Rock is on the “God Squad.” We want to hear from the Fearless Army!!

Why he did this? I don't know. There are people out there speculating is this some some sort of humiliation ritual. He was just last week. The Washington Post was writing about his off court troubles beating up a 17 year old boy and flashing a gun on him this past summer.

He's had to problems with the Indiana Pacers and and he and his crew after a game perhaps flashing a gun or pointing a red laser light at a car of Indiana Pacer officials.

John Morant has seemingly gone off the reservation and gone crazy and seems to be caught up in this thug mentality or wanting to be a gangster.

4:26.2

It seems crazy. I don't know how you could be in the news all last week and then hey, I'm going to go to Instagram and post a video of myself with a gun other than to say the culture has a hold of him.

4:42.2

The culture baits young men to buy into the thug mentality and that's how you get street cred. There's part of me. This light if it's not a humiliation ritual.
