Reconciling with the world? That's not something Morant would consider

On April 3, Morant was warned by the league for holding a gun to celebrate; On April 5, Morant was fined by the league for multiple gun celebrations. In the next game after being fined, not only did Morant not relent, he also upgraded his "arsenal" and began to do grenade throwing celebratory poses.

Morant seems to be deliberately amplifying his rebellious personality and portraying himself as a villain who works against the league. "I've been basically a villain for the last two years, so it doesn't matter," Morant said.

But in fact, the league has always been more indulgent than restrained for Morant. Two years ago, he revealed his real gun in the live broadcast, and the league wanted to make peace with the mud, but then Morant's gradually unbridled behavior led to the league finally banning him for 8 games.

The first suspension didn't teach Morant a lesson, and he once again showed off his real guns, this time with a 25-game ban from the league. The suspension seems to have restrained Morant for a while, but recently he has started to move again, making "gun-to-gun" celebrations on the court many times.

When the league tried to use fines to get Morant to "bring in." It's too late to mourn the "double guns" Morant, and the next one to appear is the "legendary grenadier" Morant.

Of course, just like explaining that he was holding a lighter, Morant also has his own statement about "grenades". Morant said, "Listen, it's not what you think. I'm just expressing myself – throwing what I want to say into the world and then blocking out the noise. ”

Morant is like the kind of "thorn" that every class would have when he was in school, deliberately creating contradictions to reflect his sense of existence. What he thought was "Morant vs the world" was actually "Morant vs himself".

once mentioned Morant, and everyone talked about the waist king the most. His incredible waist and belly strength and jumping ability, he used his physical talent to defy gravity, and he converted his talent into a battle record to lead the Grizzlies to turn the West upside down.

Now when it comes to Morant, the most talked about is the king of guns. Everyone treats Morant as fun, even if Morant beat the Heat two days ago, everyone is talking about Morant and fighting again.

Morant's various behaviors in the past two years have overdrawn the fans' trust in him. It seems that he is not the only one who has always been reckless in challenging America's rampant gun culture. He was also accused of beating up a teenager in the backyard, throwing coins at nightclubs, and everything he did was jeopardizing his future.

Not to mention becoming the face of the league, the current Morant is probably not in the Grizzlies' future plans. Morant has repeatedly expressed his dislike for the current system this season, and then the Grizzlies directly fired head coach Jenkins, who had a very good relationship with Morant, at the end of the season, clearly to carry out the system to the end.

The league lost patience with Morant, the Grizzlies lost faith in Morant, and what Morant gained and lost on this rebellious path, he himself knows best. It's just that now he still hasn't figured out how to get back on track, he is still doing his own thing, still immersed in the thrill of confrontation with the world, and doesn't care that he is being abandoned by the world.

The league needs some players with strong personalities to create buzz, but it will never tolerate an unruly player who repeatedly challenges the bottom line. Morant said that he covered his ears with his hands after "throwing a grenade" to block out the noise, but are the sounds in his ears really noise?
