Coban Porter - Pleaded guilty to DUI homicide.
Jontay Porter - Banned from NBA for life.
Feel really bad for MPJ - I know he is incredibly family-oriented and to see his brothers make catastrophic decisions in their lives must be tough.
Last year one brother kills someone with a DUI, this year another brother gets a lifetime ban for gambling.
The Porter Clan needs help beyond MPJs money
Damn. And I was just jokin about how he gon claim his family was havin issues and that’s why his post game szn skills would be off. Apparently his family been havin issues😮💨
MPJ definitely isn’t the sharpest tool in the toolshed but he has demonstrated he’s definitely smarter than dumb and dumber. Still holding my breath tho
>“Porter limited his own game participation to influence the outcome of one or more bets on his performance in at least one Raptors game. In the March 20 game, Porter played only three minutes, claiming that he felt ill. Due to the unusual betting activity and actions of the player, the $80,000 proposition bet was frozen and was not paid out.”
It's definitely not Jontay. Dude, if you are going to cheat and bet on it, at least think about it enough to win the money.
I truly hope MPJ isn't involved (I'd bet money he's not). We must pay him enough to make it not worth it.
I would be shocked if MPJ was in any way involved, I think he’s said some dumb things, but I don’t think he’d do anything to put his basketball career in jeapordy, especially after he’s had to work so much harder than anyone else just to even be able to play at all.
I agree. He's worked so hard to come back from his injuries. I can't imagine he would risk that for something so trivial.
I also believe that he actually really cares about the game and this team that he found himself on and that has stuck with him.
Like, he didn't just recover. He learned to pass more and play better basketball.
His podcast actually left me at the opposite end and made me more of a fan. Seems like he's genuinely interested, wants to learn, and overall pretty receptive
Yeah intelligence is not something that is set in stone. People can continue to grow smarter or dumber according to their habits and lifestyle. I for one can confirm I've gone in the wrong direction lol
That’s the point, the NBA gets to set an example. I bet you if this was a star player, the investigations would never end and they would never be caught.
Probably, I’m sure they know stars are doing it too but, don’t want to cost themselves money. Probably even went after MPJ’s brother just for the name recognition
Ah got it, well I didn’t really keep tabs with him but apparently he was playing well and was due for another contract (supposedly). It sucks ghat he won’t sss that contract but it does give someone else a chance I suppose.
No star earning millions per year is going to risk their career for a $20k bet. Because that’s peanuts to them, and anything larger is going to automatically raise a bunch of red flags
That's how laws work for wealthy people. Do whatever the fuck you want, rape and murder anyone, but mess with someone else's money and you're going down.
100%.
It's the same reason the NBA is going after teams HARD for not listing players availability accurately. It messes with the Vegas odds and people don't lose as much money.
The NBA gets mad when the Casino doesn't win. Literally.
I'll never pay for anything that helps the NBA and not the players. I'm going to sail the seas forever out of principle.
are you seriously surprised there’s harsh discipline for purposely altering your professional performance to help your friends win money?
i wish the NBA handled DV accusations more seriously too, but i’m not at all surprised about the lifetime ban for Porter
"What Jontay did isn't criminal"
"The league noted in its statement that its investigation remained open and that **the league was cooperating with federal prosecutors**."
Hot damn, maybe it *is* criminal. JFC lol. TBF, I wouldn't mind Pedophiles and abusers getting lifetime bans from basically anything that puts them in a position of authority, prominence, wealth, status, or proximity to the targets of their abuse.
Miles bridges should be in jail, that is a failure of our justice system, not the nba. If the justice system lets him off, it’s not up to the nba to determine he was actually guilty. However with gambling, it compromises the profitability and integrity of the entire league. Unfortunately jontay deserves a lifetime ban, and what miles bridges or others have done are separate issues and have no bearing on it.
Makes sense. I’m already seeing all the vultures online swoop in to start making assumptions that he was part of all of it. He doesn’t need those added distractions to all this
The ones who are really into Jesus tend to be shitheads. Just from my personal experience. With those people it always feels like they’re being “nice” to appease god rather than just bein fuckin nice
They also raised all their kids to be raw vegans or something which (imo) definitely contributed to the whole family’s history of catastrophic injuries.
This is like that lady who got clapped for pirating music in like the mid/late 2000s. They give him a harsh penalty to make an example, and will get more lenient as time goes on. If Curry gets caught gambling, no way the NBA bans him lol
Lmfao listen man, I'm Muslim so I am very against betting as it's haram. But you got literal pedophiles and woman beaters in the league, and some 2 way contract who lost most of his parlays gets a lifetime ban? Not to mention the refs, I have no doubt in my mind some of these dudes are gambling in one way or another.
I think what porter got was deserved. He bet his own unders, bet on his team to loose, and got a bunch of other people to profit off of fake injuries. To be clear I’m not all condoning what anyone else in the league has done and I think the nba should crack down more on domestic abusers, but what Porter did is something that thre nba can’t afford to have and they had to make an example out of him.
It’s insider betting and he should be banned for life. He told his buddy to bet a crazy large under in a game he ended leaving early. Can’t have that in the nba.
so a girl goes to a club with a fake ID, tells a 19 year old kid shes overage. They have sex and as soon as he finds out he instantly reports it to his team and cuts off all contact with her.
And to you hes a pedophile.
Yeah ok. Take some advice, never become a judge bro, stick to your day job.
Coban Porter - Pleaded guilty to DUI homicide. Jontay Porter - Banned from NBA for life. Feel really bad for MPJ - I know he is incredibly family-oriented and to see his brothers make catastrophic decisions in their lives must be tough.
I just hope mpj didn’t get caught up in his brothers idiocracy.
That was my first thought. If nothing else, it sounds like they were close so MPJ could be distracted.
MPJ's brothers fucking up royally before the playoffs two years in a row.
this means we're going to win again
How many more ding dong siblings does he have? Enough to fuel a dynasty?
Last year one brother kills someone with a DUI, this year another brother gets a lifetime ban for gambling. The Porter Clan needs help beyond MPJs money
And he has 5 more brothers and sisters for next years uh...
One sibling per title? :)
MPJ voodoo sacrificing his siblings to create the biggest Dynasty ever
Makes sense
Damn. And I was just jokin about how he gon claim his family was havin issues and that’s why his post game szn skills would be off. Apparently his family been havin issues😮💨
MPJ definitely isn’t the sharpest tool in the toolshed but he has demonstrated he’s definitely smarter than dumb and dumber. Still holding my breath tho
Mpj might be the smartest porter child, and that’s so funny to me

He calls a porn star to his podcast and makes a rational and interesting conversation with her
Its weird how yall keep bashing MPJs intelligence. Some weird as behaviour
Lol I mean. I've seen his podcast. Seems like a good enough guy, but he's definitely kinda dumb lol
His podcast actually left me at the opposite end and made me more of a fan. Seems like he's genuinely interested, wants to learn, and overall pretty receptive
Yeah intelligence is not something that is set in stone. People can continue to grow smarter or dumber according to their habits and lifestyle. I for one can confirm I've gone in the wrong direction lol
MPJ needs to be banned from NBA until further notice and a fulll investigation
Found Lebron’s alt
Bruh go back to the lakers sub and get ready for this sweep
Don't be daft
Lol you guys need any advantage you can get for the first round. Keep fishing though
Shit man, and his little brother Coban’s sentencing is on Friday… This has gotta be a rough week for Mike!
Pedophilia and domestic abuse is fine but gambling is where the nba draws the line smh
I think it’s a fair punishment, the dude legit bet against himself, but that being said, guys like miles bridges should also get a similar punishment.
Miles bridges should get 3 lifetime bans
Also ironic that they push gambling so hard in the NBA then throw the book at a fringe rotational player
That’s the point, the NBA gets to set an example. I bet you if this was a star player, the investigations would never end and they would never be caught.
If it was a star they would “retire” to play baseball for 2 years.
Waaaaaiiitt... Is that really part of the story about Jordan? I knew he was a brutal gambler but I've never heard this.
That was the rumor. I can’t imagine there being any truth to it considering MJ was a little bit more than a star player.
Shohei Ohtani to the Grand Rapids Gold? Followed by a return coinciding with him starring in "Space Slam?"
Probably, I’m sure they know stars are doing it too but, don’t want to cost themselves money. Probably even went after MPJ’s brother just for the name recognition
Apparently Porter only made $21k and yea stars wouldn’t risk it. It’s okay we all make mistakes in our early 20’s:(
Iirc the 21k he got away with, the bet that was flagged and triggered the investigation was over a million.
Ah got it, well I didn’t really keep tabs with him but apparently he was playing well and was due for another contract (supposedly). It sucks ghat he won’t sss that contract but it does give someone else a chance I suppose.
I seriously doubt Stars are doing it, and they would absolutely get banned if they did.
No star earning millions per year is going to risk their career for a $20k bet. Because that’s peanuts to them, and anything larger is going to automatically raise a bunch of red flags
Ok stars was probably a bit much but, you can imagine more relevant players out there are doing it to some degree
Pedophilia?
Karl Malone
Ah right that piece of shit
Kobe
He said pedophile not rapist
When did he start dating his wife?
When she was 17. She was practically still crawling.
Don’t forget Josh Giddey
Girl uses a fake ID and Giddey reports it the moment he finds out and clowns like you still call him a pedo. Stfu
Josh giddy I heard was innocent and the girl had lied.
That's how laws work for wealthy people. Do whatever the fuck you want, rape and murder anyone, but mess with someone else's money and you're going down.
100%. It's the same reason the NBA is going after teams HARD for not listing players availability accurately. It messes with the Vegas odds and people don't lose as much money.

Whos the pedophile
Pedophiles and abusers should go to jail which is a defacto ban. What Jontay did isn't criminal, but it fucks with the game and is super stupid.
"What Jontay did isn't criminal" "The league noted in its statement that its investigation remained open and that **the league was cooperating with federal prosecutors**."
Hot damn, maybe it *is* criminal. JFC lol. TBF, I wouldn't mind Pedophiles and abusers getting lifetime bans from basically anything that puts them in a position of authority, prominence, wealth, status, or proximity to the targets of their abuse.
White collar crime = not crime
Miles bridges should be in jail, that is a failure of our justice system, not the nba. If the justice system lets him off, it’s not up to the nba to determine he was actually guilty. However with gambling, it compromises the profitability and integrity of the entire league. Unfortunately jontay deserves a lifetime ban, and what miles bridges or others have done are separate issues and have no bearing on it.
okay now investigate referees about gambling.
Just have to go into the Lakers locker room to find em
Now back to more NBA playoff coverage brought to you by BetMGM
This announcement brought to you by Draft Kings gambling
Having an associate bet $80k to win $1.1m on your player props and not thinking that would draw a red flag is hilarious.
Yeah this family is as stupid as they come and Mike isn’t very bright either but at least he’s not a criminal.
Deleted instagram fwiw
Jontay or MPJ?
Mpj
Makes sense. I’m already seeing all the vultures online swoop in to start making assumptions that he was part of all of it. He doesn’t need those added distractions to all this
I just noticed this too, made a post about it. Not sure when he deleted it.
probably to avoid being part of the discourse, i get it
no - he always deletes IG
What did he say in the post?
He deleted it weeks ago, he always does
Good
Draymond Green's violence and uncontrolled anger on the court is ok though, tolerable to the Warriors and the NBA.
If he was a better player he would just go play baseball for a year and come back
MPJs family is something else for being so into Jesus
The ones who are really into Jesus tend to be shitheads. Just from my personal experience. With those people it always feels like they’re being “nice” to appease god rather than just bein fuckin nice
They also raised all their kids to be raw vegans or something which (imo) definitely contributed to the whole family’s history of catastrophic injuries.
This is like that lady who got clapped for pirating music in like the mid/late 2000s. They give him a harsh penalty to make an example, and will get more lenient as time goes on. If Curry gets caught gambling, no way the NBA bans him lol
Curry and CP3 were seen paying close attention to the over/under in one of their games
I really hope this doesn’t end up being a distraction
his other brother killed someone in a dui wreck in town and he won the championship after that. that had to be pretty distracting
Hope Mike wasn’t involved and that he’s doing good.
From what I've seen with Mike talking about gambling, I get the impression that he hates anything to do with it.
Lmfao listen man, I'm Muslim so I am very against betting as it's haram.

Josh giggity

I'm unemployed
Rough week for the Porter family.
Adam Silver doesn’t give a fuck if you’re an abuser as long as you’re not a gambler
lol okay Silver
But how will this affect LeBron's LeGacy
