Josh Jackson...Umm...Returned Fire At A Heckler During Saturday's 42 Point Loss To The Clippers10/24/2017
Well, in all fairness, if you're going to bust out an insanely untimely and unmistakably insinuated threat of gun violence in a confined public place as a response to a heckler then you might as well do it while playing for a team in which that would only be the 5th or 6th most intriguing storyline. Josh Jackson had a recent history of "temperament issues" (if that's how you would describe threatening to hit a woman, but settling for the assault of her mode of transportation when she made use of it's locks) coming out of Kansas, but somehow the Suns are such a dumpster fire that their lottery pick was able to slide under the radar after emptying his invisible clip into the third row on the road. A high profile rookie potentially played into the hands of a topical and polarizing debate about firearms, and it got relegated to the proverbial back page due to the organizational chaos of the franchise that drafted him despite clear and present legal concerns. Now, I don't think that Josh Jackson letting off faux shots was anything more than a spur of the moment brush with youthful stupidity. However, can you imagine how many takes would be firing in hotter than his unseen heat if everyone wasn't so busy addressing the Suns' dismissal of their head coach, their starting point guard's unhappiness/inevitable trade, and their team's inability to keep the final score wishing 30? P.S. Are asinine fabrications an organization epidemic in Phoenix? The NBA should double his $35,000 fine for having multiple days to craft an explanation and coming up with nothing better than playing off his 9mm as a censored middle finger...
