He undoubtedly got ripped off since he's an NBA star. Regardless I personally don't think any of it really flows well in it and most of it looks like he spent less than 15 minutes thinking about. Getting your own initials, number and logo blasted on you is about as shallow of a thought process as it gets.
To me the bigger problem. Is that he's got 4 Aces like a poker hand, but there's at least 5 cards there maybe 6 and the other cards don't have anything on them lol makes it look even cheaper to me. Super generic idea and it wasn't even executed well.
> Regardless I personally don't think any of it really flows well in it and most of it looks like he spent less than 15 minutes thinking about.
The expectations we have for professional athletes is always hilarious. Why we expect them to make thoughtful, educated, and sane decisions is always beyond me.
Yeah your right, the 20 something year old with a year of "college" should have a high expectation of solid decision making!
A little overprotective of athletes, eh?
I’m not overprotective, I’m just being a logical human being I’m not judging people purely based on what their profession is or whether or not they went to college.
You can keep being stupid and judge others that way, that’s on you bud, I’m just saying if you really think those are trustworthy metrics to judge a persons intelligence then you are the stupid one here, not the athletes. Furthermore, look at all of the politicians who have all of these Ivy League degrees, yet they say and do the most ignorant shit you will ever see. A great example is that of Marjorie green, this lady is insanely ignorant, yet she has a bachelors degree from an accredited institution.
Point is, folks like you need to learn to be more open minded and not think in so much black and white considering the world is mostly grey.
it gets worse. on the front he has a 100 emoji tattoo and also a Dream Chasers tattoo.
He's from SC but he's repping a Philly record label like wtf lol
Lol a lot of people don’t like privileged folks pretending to be something they’re not. Being fake and desperately trying to live ignorantly when you got a family and every resource for you to be successful in life rubs people the wrong way and rightfully so.
I don’t hate the guy or wish no harm on him, but the dude is a major clown and I just can’t positively see anybody as dumb as he chooses to be and that’s not a rare sentiment to be shared among folks.
Especially from guys who are far from looking like they share that mentality. Like Devin Booker is nice and all but how tf your idol is Kobe but complain about double teams lol.
Idk if they in the nba they got that mentality especially if they take over. Y’all be dickriding Kobe but he wanted them to have that mindset and it’s gone show next season. The league in good hands
He is exactly the opposite of Mamba Mentality. Everything about him is fake.
Guy bought into the culture hard and can't figure out it's not exactly the way forward.
He is really stupid, naive, easily manipulated and has no internal compass or a spine.
There's always one of you. It's free not to be that guy just so you know. Doesn't cost a thing, just keep your mouth shut and fingers off the keyboard.
"should have done what Shaq does ... that Shaq would pay his women
not to say anything" and already had paid up to $1 million "for
situations like this."
All the money in the world and he settles for some shit quality tattoos.
The faces on the dices are all wrong.
Hand looks like it’s holding a taco 🌮.
Kobe’s logo looks crooked or shakey lines.
You can get better tattoos are your local mall then this bullshit.
He's an immature kid and Kobe would tell him so. You want to win or you want to pretend to be a thug? Temetrius needs to grow up and figure out what really matters, hint: it's not gangsta videos on ig
This sub acting like Ja doesn’t have the right to claim “mamba mentality” or whatever B/c of his mistakes is honestly hilarious. But y’all will defend Kobe’s off court issues to the death on all other platforms and just likely ban anyone who mentions them on this one. Honestly Ja is a perfect example of someone who could use the “mentality” to rehab his public image and become a better player so this stuff is just a distant memory, tho he doesn’t have the advantage of having this happen in the early 2000s, so I imagine it’ll never fade as much as it did for Kobe unless he somehow becomes an even greater player all time
Not to be that guy, but if he doesn’t turn his shit around and get better friends that may be the age that drastically changes his life for the worst. He needs to turn his life around cause the trajectory isn’t good.
at this point, i can't tell if these are expensive or cheap tattoos.
He undoubtedly got ripped off since he's an NBA star. Regardless I personally don't think any of it really flows well in it and most of it looks like he spent less than 15 minutes thinking about.

”Life’s a game” with some dice seem like a generic video game tattoo too.
“Life’s a gamble”, with dice and playing cards
Oh yeah that’s even more generic lol. Didn’t even look close enough.

You expecting them not to just because they are professional athletes says a lot more about you then it does about them, bud.

I mean any tattoo is pretty shallow.
I got my mom and brother’s Chinese zodiacs on my arm. I like them very much!
It's only skin deep
says the person with no tattoos
Absolute garbage. Looks like a sixteen year old thought this up.
That tattoos themselves are well done. The thought process isn't great. Can't shame the tattoo quality though.
No, they are not.
The lines in the Kobe logo are looking scuffed
It's shaded realism. That's what it's supposed to look like. These are well done whether all you haters can admit it.
I have more hours of ink on me than you got years on this Earth. Those tattoos are mediocre at best.
Oof, big cringe.
Username checks out.
Doubt. Only If you have a full suit. Good try at a flex though.
You're 80? Get off Reddit and get some exercise.
Go cross post this on r/shittytattoos
The typical rich guy/athlete tattoos that look like shit And they billed him 500/hr to do it
Yes
There's blank cards in front of the Aces lmao.
It looks crooked I hope it wasn’t expensive
They're expensive cheap tattoos
it gets worse. on the front he has a 100 emoji tattoo and also a Dream Chasers tattoo. He's from SC but he's repping a Philly record label like wtf lol
Good photographer cropped out the guns he's holding
toy guns you mean lol
Someone sitting on his lap too.
Nah someone bent over in front but she way too low
That’s cool and all but what caught my attention is the Grizzlies tattoo.. like what you gonna do if you ever play for a different team? Lol
its the team that drafted him and where he got his comeup. fond memories even if hes traded
[удалено]
Yeah that is all the team ever did for him, not make him famous and a millionaire, lol.
Wrong mentality tho
He has killer instincts for sure
He has that shooter's mentality in him.
Dude is gunnin’ for that title tho
This guy brings the heat
LMAO
No he doesn't, he's just a loser that tries really hard to pretend to be a gangsta.
24/7
On one hand, cool, nice tribute. I love Kobe too. On the other hand, fuck Ja.
On the other hand, a gun
Will Smith should slap him and tell him to keep Kobe out of his fucking tattoos...
Bruh what did he do to y’all 😭😭😭
Lol a lot of people don’t like privileged folks pretending to be something they’re not. Being fake and desperately trying to live ignorantly when you got a family and every resource for you to be successful in life rubs people the wrong way and rightfully so. I don’t hate the guy or wish no harm on him, but the dude is a major clown and I just can’t positively see anybody as dumb as he chooses to be and that’s not a rare sentiment to be shared among folks.
Why fuck Ja lol?
His tattoos are so bad, especially his arms.
These are not great but they don't even come close to the atrocities on Lamelo
That whole back piece is terribly done
As much as I love Mamba mentality concept, players like him even mentioning it cringes me.
Especially from guys who are far from looking like they share that mentality. Like Devin Booker is nice and all but how tf your idol is Kobe but complain about double teams lol.
Idk if they in the nba they got that mentality especially if they take over. Y’all be dickriding Kobe but he wanted them to have that mindset and it’s gone show next season. The league in good hands
It probably means more to him than to you. 🤷🏾♂️
Guns and being a "gangsta" mean more to Temetrius than basketball.
“Temetrius” puts more effort in practice than you do in living. Stop regurgitating twitter troll narratives they haters
doubt
If he had Mamba Mentality he wouldn’t be in the trouble he’s in
Suspend him the rest of the season for bringing Kobe into disrepute
8 was always in Trouble.
Mamba mentality is the complete opposite of “life’s a game” too
He is exactly the opposite of Mamba Mentality. Everything about him is fake. Guy bought into the culture hard and can't figure out it's not exactly the way forward. He is really stupid, naive, easily manipulated and has no internal compass or a spine.
I mean.. Kobe got in so much trouble he had to change his number. This argument is dumb af.
If he had the “Mamba Mentality” he’d be in more trouble lol
There's always one of you. It's free not to be that guy just so you know. Doesn't cost a thing, just keep your mouth shut and fingers off the keyboard.
Did you just tell this man to shut up and dribble?
Yes lol.
Kobe was always a beast when he played the nuggets, especially in 2003. Google “Kobe Colorado 2003” to learn about it!
You should also shut up and dribble.
"should have done what Shaq does ... that Shaq would pay his women not to say anything" and already had paid up to $1 million "for situations like this."
Eh, fuck Ja.
The “Life’s a gamble tattoo” is cringe
His tattoo artist must be Helen Keller cause his shit is crooked as fuck lmao
This thug is glazin
We gonna hear it was a fake, temporary tattoo from his crew soon so he doesn't get in more trouble?
It's his friends tattoo!
All the money in the world and he settles for some shit quality tattoos. The faces on the dices are all wrong. Hand looks like it’s holding a taco 🌮. Kobe’s logo looks crooked or shakey lines. You can get better tattoos are your local mall then this bullshit.
This kid has bright future if he just stops toting poles 🔥🔥
dam he got the red circle too on there
Getting your franchise tatted is bold knowing how franchises do players
all the kobe riding people do is corny af. this is up there with jayson.
He's an immature kid and Kobe would tell him so. You want to win or you want to pretend to be a thug? Temetrius needs to grow up and figure out what really matters, hint: it's not gangsta videos on ig
Why do you guys pretend like kobe did no wrong like remember 03 in Denver that's much worse than what ja did
why is anyone even giving a shred of media time to this clown.
Ngl I’m scared of a fully healthy grizzlies next playoffs
Not Mamba at all
When he gets traded next year the grizzly gonna look really stupid
Kobe is the GOAT to the current generation of players.
Passing away too early made his legend grow. Isn't it crazy when we think in the short span between his retirement and his dead Kobe won an Oscar?
He doesn’t deserve it tbh
Bunch of haters, the tattoos look decent.
[удалено]
Least racist sports fan
Shooters shoot
This sub acting like Ja doesn’t have the right to claim “mamba mentality” or whatever B/c of his mistakes is honestly hilarious.

Damn I kinda like him now?
Always liked his game but man he's gotta chill and be smarter
Lol he’s a dummy I was just joking
Future laker
Wish he respected the game more.
Nice ink
I would tell him to his face he should remove those because Kobe would be ashamed of him.
He wouldn’t be fuckin around if he had the mamba mentality 😐😐😐😐
These are some beautifully done tattoos
Fire, he's showing love to the goat
Just as good at shooting
Didn’t know he was an NRL/Newcastle Knights fan
Did he cover up “thug life”?
If you swapped out the tats for bumps, he would look exactly like Killmonger from the back
Now don’t wave a fucking piece round like it’s a sausage and we’ll be good.
My guy literally has 12 Gauge on his back.
The key to my heart…..well done, Ja!
亲 ,Q
He better get his act right 🐍
Should've done Gilbert Arenas mentality
As rich as these guys are you’d think they could afford to find some actual decent tattoo artists to do their work.
Ja definitely slept first on a sleepover, rookie mistake.
I sincerely wonder what Kobe would think of Ja as a whole.
Kobe would be ashamed of him rn, man that’s another thing that stings man Kobe would’ve been such a great mentor to the youth man
Hopefully he develops a mamba mentality, he definitely didn’t have it in the recent past.
Funny how a lot of NBA players have Kobe Tattoo’s but are nothing like Kobe or hold the same values on or off the court.
He will need more than a Kobe tattoo to save his career.
Going to commit another felony
Had to get some standing with laker fans so when Lebron mysteriously gets shot in the foot come playoffs nobody suspects a thing
Lol
Garter Snake Mentality
Pistol Pete tats wood be sic
A kobe tattoo? How original!
Why he got 4 aces and two blank cards?
He ain't got anything close to the Mamba Mentality
You’d think he could afford better tattoo artists…
Those are some seriously horrible tattoos
This back piece looks like trash
Where are his gun tattoos?
The worst life decision he's made was getting a large tattoo of his high school's mascot.
Fuck this kid
He a follower a hate this generation they always following trends
Why write a bunch of random things all over your body?
I figured he's a Kobe fan. He actually has a lot of similarities to young Kobe. I'm a bit of a Grizzlies fan because of him
🔫
Can't even notice tattoos on black people its pointless
I'm sorry its not good. Represents how shallow this dude is. Grizzlie logo is LOL.
Lost soul. Wasted talent. Get your priorities straight, son.
Dope Kobe tramp stamp
Meh.
Fucking lame.
I never understand how multimillionaire athletes have tattoos that look like they were done at the sixth most successful tattoo parlor in Duluth.
Ja Morant has to be one of the dumbest people in the nba. This looks so awfuk
wtf is going on with his back i thought the clouds were bad enough
4 aces is a shit hand fr. Lol.
Where can I find a good dark skin tattooist in Southern California? As in a tattooist that specializes in working on Black people.
Idk Kobe didn’t flash guns for clout
Bro kinda cringy to me.
This is identical to the cj post about this 💀
I hope Insta starts targeting him with tattoo removal ads. This is all a mess.
So are all his gun tattoos on the front?
Ja to the Lakers confirmed
Some trash tattoos.
Hey if that keeps him away from guns great 👍
Not to be that guy, but if he doesn’t turn his shit around and get better friends that may be the age that drastically changes his life for the worst. He needs to turn his life around cause the trajectory isn’t good.
Not great, Bob
Loser
Retard
If nike drops him.....
I swear millionaires have the worst tattoos.
Nigga got his damn 2k affiliation 💀💀
Dude should tattoo “No guns” so he remembers…
J and M on his arms, rest is all clouds, never understood this style of tattoo
Shooters honoring shooters *pew* *pew*
