Shannon Sharpe Hits Ja Morant With A Reality Check

by

Shannon Sharpe has been a huge critic of the Memphis Grizzlies this season. Overall, a lot of that has to do with the fact that the Grizzlies have been talking a big game all year long. However, they haven’t always been able to back up that talk. In fact, Sharpe got into an altercation with some Grizzlies players during a game against the Lakers. Subsequently, Shannon apologized and he has simply focused on providing analysis of the game. However, players like Ja Morant have made it difficult for Shannon to only talk about the on-court product.

In the last week or so, Morant has been wrapped up in numerous controversies. Firstly, he was accused of threatening a mall cop and threatening a teenager with a gun. Moreover, Morant flashed a gun on Instagram Live while at a strip club. This immediately led to an indefinite suspension that could very well spell the end of his season. Today, on Undisputed, Sharpe was tasked with speaking about the Ja situation. That is when he praised the Grizzlies star for apologizing. Although, he made sure to include a reality check for the burgeoning superstar.

Shannon Sharpe Addresses Ja

“Ja was traveling down a road he didn’t need to be on,” Shannon Sharpe said. “I’m glad it didn’t take something tragic or catastrophic for you to realize the error of your ways.” Following this statement, Sharpe went on to say that if you continue to flash guns on social media, people will want to test whether or not you’re about that life. He even likened it to people getting robbed after flashing their wealth. Overall, it is a very salient point that Morant should certainly keep in mind.

Ultimately, his behavior could lead him down a path of destruction. The NBA is trying to maintain its image, and the Grizzlies want to protect Ja from himself. Although it is a bad situation, it seems like it is being worked out. Hopefully, Morant is able to learn from this, and eventually move on. He is simply too talented of a player to be wasting his NBA opportunity in this way. Stay tuned to HNHH for more news and updates from around the sports world.

Skip Bayless & Shannon Sharpe React To Ja Morant’s Alleged Threats

by

It was inevitable that the latest reports surrounding Ja Morant would be discussed on Shannon Sharpe and Skip Bayless’s Undisputed. The Grizzlies’ point guard’s behavior off the court raised eyebrows throughout the past several months. He emerged as one of the leading players in the NBA but his actions are undoubtedly questionable. Sharpe previously warned Ja Morant to clean up his act, especially for an individual whose talents prevented him from diving into the streets. “I wish Ja would realize he’s not a thug,” Sharpe said earlier this month. “You’re not about that life! No one looks at you and thinks you’re hood. Stop pretending!!”

On Wednesday, reports emerged claiming Ja Morant threatened a 17-year-old during a pick-up game and a mall security guard in a separate incident. Morant allegedly flashed a gun during a pick-up game and punched the teen repeatedly last summer. He hasn’t publicly responded to the claims. Still, many individuals, such as Shannon Sharpe and Skip Bayless, expressed their disappointment in his overall behavior and lack of professionalism when he isn’t on the NBA court.

Shannon Sharpe & Skip Bayless Chime aIn 

On the latest episode of Undisputed, Sharpe passionately slammed Morant for “hustling backward.” Shannon Sharpe explained that Morant’s done the opposite of what an actual gangster does when they get legitimate money. He brought up infamous gangsters like John Gotti — while Skip mentioned fictional mobster Tony Soprano — who remained lowkey publicly. “Skip, he portrays something that he’s not,” Sharpe told Skip Bayless. “I don’t get Ja. He’s hustling backward.”

Meanwhile, Skip Bayless reflects on the moments involving Ja Morant that “disturbed” him, including allegations that his friends pointed a red laser at the Pacers’. He explained that the common thread between the altercations with the 17-year-old, the security guard, and the Pacers incident is the individuals surrounding him – echoing a sentiment Sharpe said in the past. Bayless explained that Ja’s friends are dragging him down before Sharpe interjected to double down on claims that Morant’s pretending to be something that he’s not. Check out Shannon Sharpe and Skip Bayless’s discussion surrounding the reports on Ja Morant above. 

Shannon Sharpe Dissed By Grizzlies After Lakers Loss

by

Shannon Sharpe is one of the best sports talk personalities in the game right now. Overall, he is the reason why Undisputed is even watchable. Were it not for him, Skip would be painful on his own. However, this has not come without a bit of controversy. On top of some of his run-ins with Skip on the show, Shannon found himself at the center of an issue with none other than the Memphis Grizzlies. While sitting courtside at a game, he began chirping with Dillon Brooks. Subsequently, numerous players got involved and it made for an iconic courtside moment.

Since that time, Shannon Sharpe has apologized for his behavior. He made it crystal clear that what he did was not good and that he hopes to learn from what he did. Meanwhile, the Grizzlies went on a bit of a losing streak after the altercation. Overall, fans were excited about this as the public turned on Ja Morant and the Grizz. Although, on Tuesday night, the Grizzlies took down the Lakers who are in a fight for a playoff spot. After the game, their social media person made sure to hand Sharpe a swift L.

Shannon Sharpe Takes The L

In the tweet up above, you can see a picture of Shannon Sharpe from that fateful night in Los Angeles. In the picture, he is pointing toward the court. However, the image has been edited to depict an L at the end of Sharpe’s fingertips. It is all very clever and especially petty. Although Sharpe might not be a fan of these tactics, the Grizzlies fanbase will certainly be cracking a smile or two today.

For the Grizzlies, this win is especially bittersweet because now, the Lakers have a much harder road to the postseason. These two teams clearly do not like one another, and that has been made apparent. However, there is a very real possibility that they meet each other in the first round. If that happens, we will have narratives and hot takes for days. Let us know what you thought about last night’s game, in the comments section down below.

Shannon Sharpe Rips Skip Bayless For His LeBron James Hypocrisy

by

Shannon Sharpe and Skip Bayless have gotten into their fair share of unique altercations while on Undisputed. Of course, none of these altercations are physical. They are simply some verbal jousting sessions that always seem to elicit a ton of reactions on social media. Overall, it is clear that Shannon and Skip are professionals who aren’t going to break up, anytime soon. Although some fans think that Shannon hates Skip, Sharpe has made it clear that this is not actually the case. Yet again, their supposed feud is just a case of social media getting ahead of itself.

Today, however, Shannon and Skip found themselves getting into yet another heated conversation. This time, it was centered around none other than LeBron James. The topic of conversation here was pretty simple. James is now out with a foot injury, and he could be gone for a couple of weeks. Overall, this is a huge blow to the Lakers’ playoff chances. However, Skip seems to think James is simply lying about his injury.

Shannon Sharpe Goes Off

As you can imagine, this set Shannon Sharpe off. Sharpe is a huge LeBron James fan, and at times, he has had some information about the Lakers star. In the clip above, you can see Sharpe raising his voice at Skip as he questions his co-host’s biases. Moreover, he calls out Bayless for being a huge hypocrite whenever it comes to LeBron. For instance, there was a time when Skip took Tom Brady’s surgery claims at face value. Although, he will not do the same thing for LeBron. Subsequently, Skip questioned Sharpe in regard to what he knows about the injury. He even said that Rich Paul controls the narrative when it comes to LeBron and that we cannot trust the Klutch Sports camp.

Overall, Sharpe was not having it, and it made for a very entertaining segment. However, it has become obvious that Bayless has an agenda as it pertains to the Lakers superstar. At this point, his views will not change, no matter how much Shannon yells at him. Let us know what you thought of this clip, in the comments below.

Shannon Sharpe Reveals Why He’s Staying With Skip Bayless

by

Shannon Sharpe and Skip Bayless have been on the air together for over six years now. When Bayless decided to leave ESPN, he handpicked Shannon to be his broadcast partner. Overall, Undisputed has been a massive success thanks to the dynamic these two have. Although Skip is the old guard of hot-take merchants, Shannon offers a unique perspective as a professional athlete. Moreover, he is wildly entertaining, and fans love hearing him talk on the show. However, all that glitters isn’t necessarily gold, especially given recent events.

In the span of what felt like back-to-back weeks, Sharpe and Bayless found themselves at odds. Firstly, we had the incident in which Bayless said Tom Brady was better than Shannon. Many found this to be completely tasteless, and it led to a very interesting fallout. Secondly, we had the Damar Hamlin incident. Shannon took issue with Skip’s tweet about the Hamlin medical emergency, which led to an on-air argument. These instances had some calling for Sharpe to leave Undisputed. Although, in an interview with Adam Schein, Sharpe made it clear he is sticking by his guy.

Shannon Sharpe Talks Skip

In Sharpe’s eyes, what he has with Bayless is very much like a marriage. As he told Schein, he didn’t want to let those bad few weeks erase what is otherwise a great relationship. “I wasn’t gonna allow two bad months to ruin six years of a great working relationship,” he noted. “We have a great working relationship.” Moreover, Sharpe made the revelation that he and Skip aren’t friends outside of the show. Although, this has nothing to do with his appreciation for his work partner. “I think it helps our relationship on-air that we are not that close,” Sharpe said. “He doesn’t know what I’m thinking and he doesn’t know what I’m going to say.”

It is good to see that Skip and Shannon are going to continue their show together. Ultimately, it would be a real shame to see Undisputed end. While the fans wanted to overreact, Shannon seems to have a plan. However, if he does decide to leave Skip at some point, he will be fine on his own. Be sure to let us know what you think of Sharpe’s comments, down below.

Shannon Sharpe Reveals How He Feels About Michael Jordan

by

Shannon Sharpe is someone who is known for calling LeBron James the GOAT of basketball. One could just tune into Undisputed after a great game by LeBron and you will see Sharpe sporting the infamous GOAT mask. However, just because he loves LeBron doesn’t mean he also isn’t a fan of Michael Jordan. After all, Jordan won six NBA titles and was an icon of the sports world for many years. To this day, MJ is still considered to be the true GOAT and it is hard not to give him the respect he deserves.

In fact, Michael Jordan recently turned 60 years old. As we reported earlier this week, Jordan celebrated his birthday by coming through with a massive donation to the Make-A-Wish Foundation. He gave the organization a whopping $10 million which is the largest individual donation they have ever received. Overall, it is clear that Jordan still has a big heart all these years later. As for Shannon Sharpe, he had praise for the legend on Undisputed today.

Shannon Sharpe Talks MJ

“You’ll never find another North American athlete that’ll surpass what Michael Jordan was or is,” Sharpe said. It is easy to see why Sharpe would have this take when you think about everything Jordan did while in the NBA. He had massive contributions to sneaker culture. Additionally, he changed the way the game of basketball was played. Now, every single player in the NBA seeks to have the athleticism that MJ once had. He is one of those players who deserves his flowers. Even Skip Bayless loves Jordan, noting “Michael Jordan is the rarest athlete I’ve ever closely observed. Michael Jordan at 60 to me is bigger than ever.”

Michael Jordan is one of those global icons who is hard to surpass. However, somehow and someway, LeBron James has attempted to do it, with quite a bit of success. That said, even with the scoring record, the majority of basketball fans still see MJ as the best player ever. Let us know what you think about Michael Jordan, down in the comments section below.

Shannon Sharpe Gets Brutally Honest About Zion Williamson

by

Shannon Sharpe is one of the most entertaining men on sports talk television. Every single weekday, he sits across from none other than Skip Bayless and they debate the latest topics. Overall, it is a very fun show and while the two get heated, there is no shortage of great punditry. Although some people might hate these kinds of shows, you cannot deny the fact that they can be a whole lot of fun to consume. This is especially true following a big sporting event like the Super Bowl or even the NBA Finals.

Lately, a big topic throughout the NBA world has been none other than Zion Williamson. Unfortunately, Williamson has been dealing with a pretty bad hamstring injury. Moreover, it seems like this injury may very well keep him out of the lineup for the entire season. Needless to say, the Pelicans are hitting the panic button as Williamson is constantly injured. On Undisputed today, Sharpe got to speak on Zion, and he ushered in a very harsh truth.

Shannon Sharpe Reacts

When asked if the Pelicans can have any confidence in Zion, Sharpe was just brutally honest. Overall, it was not exactly kind to Zion, however, that is not the goal of the show. In fact, if you have followed the Pelicans, you will probably agree with Shannon. “It’s a lower number than 0. They should have zero confidence that Zion will be healthy for the rest of his career,” Sharpe said. This is an unfortunate notion to consider, especially since Zion is so fun to watch. However, he is a big guy, and typically, larger players have a harder time staying healthy. Hopefully, he can prove Sharpe wrong.

When the season started, the Pelicans were looking amazing. Now, however, it is looking increasingly likely that they will miss the playoffs. If you’re a fan of the team, all of this has been incredibly difficult to watch. Let us know what you think of Sharpe’s remarks, in the comments below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for more news and updates from around the sports world. We will always bring you the latest information.

Moreover, he has to work with someone like Skip Bayless, which ultimately makes his job that much harder. He has to deal with a lot, and he does so with class.

Last night was a big night for Sharpe as he got to take in the Super Bowl. The championship game means a lot to him, especially as someone who has won it three times. Furthermore, he had predicted a big game from Patrick Mahomes. Mahomes had that game as he won Super Bowl MVP. Contrarily, Skip Bayless had picked the Philadelphia Eagles to win. Having said that, this win gave Sharpe every opportunity to rub it in Bayless’ face.

Shannon Sharpe Speaks

However, Sharpe decided to talk about the actual game. At one point, he was asked who deserves the credit for the Chiefs’ success last night. The NFL Hall Of Famer made it very clear that the credit belongs to Mahomes. Although Andy Reid called a great game, Sharpe likes that Mahomes can actually execute on the game plan. “We’ve seen coaches diagram great plays and QBs can’t make it happen, but Mahomes makes it happen even when there isn’t a great play,” Sharpe explained. Reid and Mahomes have made an exceptional duo over the last two years, and Sharpe understands that better than anyone.

Subsequently, there is now a lot of debate as to whether or not Mahomes is a top-three quarterback ever. He has only played five seasons, and he is already getting thos considerations. Needless to say, he will one day have a bust in the same room as Shannon Sharpe’s. Let us know what you think of Shannon’s take, in the comments below.
