We run up the chimney and we aint ducking: Ja Morant announces how Grizzlies are ruling the

May 2024 · 3 minute read

Ja Morant has been godlike this season with his heroic performances as he leads the Memphis Grizzlies to one of the best records in the league this year which wasn’t expected at all. He has also made a strong case in MVP conversations this season as his performances, veteran-like skills and explosiveness are loud enough to get him recognized in the right way.

Recently, the New York Knicks hosted the Ja Morant led Memphis Grizzlies at Madison Square Garden. The Grizzlies dominated the Knicks for the whole game keeping the lead in their hands and eventually winning the game. The final box score stands at 120-108. The Memphis Grizzlies are currently ranked as the third seed in the western conference with the record of 36 wins and 18 losses at .667. On the other hand, the New York Knicks are ranked as the twelfth seed in the eastern conference with the record of 24 wins and 28 losses at .462.

Amid the game, Julius Randle and Desmond Bane got into an altercation as Julius went straight into Memphis Grizzlies’ timeout area to have a word with Bane. But Bane shoved him to the side and soon the team and security jumped in between separating the two. Julius Randle was later also ejected from the game. Ja Morant after the game had some words for the incident as he is a real teammate who always has his team backed up.

Ja Morant on Julius Randle initiating an unnecessary scuffle

Ja Morant in the post-game replying to a question related to the incident and ejection quoted: “There ain’t no running in the M, man. We climb up the chimney. We ain’t ducking no smoke. We’re gonna let everybody know we’re here. We’re gonna play hard, we’re trying to get a win, and if you don’t like it? Oh well.”

The whole statement from Ja was a sign for the league that they are a part of the run and are currently leading as they are afraid of none. The team has really been very unexpected this year and has great chances of having a mad run this postseason. Since it won’t be easy for any other team to take them down in a seven-game series.

Julius Randle and Desmond Bane on the other hand are two players who have been rude many a time this season itself. Desmond Bane got LeBron James upset for his trash-talk and Julius Randle has been in many altercations with refs, fans and players this season which have resulted in multiple ejections. Randle was also out of form for the last couple of games as fans trolled him for a slump after signing an extension but against the Grizzlies he almost recorded a triple-double. While Bane sticking to his role delivered as usual and was great on the supporting coast.
