The Memphis Grizzlies have been on the receiving end of mockery after the Golden State Warriors eliminated them from the playoffs. Clearly, though, Ja Morant couldn't care less about what they say.
On Twitter, Morant channeled NBA Youngboy in what seemed to be a shot at the haters poking fun at the Grizzlies' latest defeat. He referenced a line in Youngboy's song “One Shot,” as if suggesting he wouldn't change a thing about their demeanor despite the loss:
they gon speak on us until i put my flex down 😤

You do you, Ja Morant.
While the Grizzlies failed in their attempt to make the NBA Finals, they can still hold their heads high after a brilliant season that no one expected from them. Memphis was supposed to be a young, up-and-coming team that could be good enough for the seventh or eighth seed, but they exceeded the preseason predictions and ended up with the second-best record in the West and the whole NBA.
A lot has been said about the Grizzlies' antics during the playoffs — with Ja Morant often hitting the Griddy when celebrating a shot or a win, and the whole team just talking trash. However, that's what makes them fun to watch. Besides, they have more than proven that they can contend against the best of them.
The Grizzlies are just getting started, and love it or hate it, fans will see more of them in the years to come.
