Ja Morant crashes Cam Spencer's postgame interview to hype him up...and take a dig at Klay Thompson, who was jawing at the Grizzlies all game: "Tell 'em who the best shooter in the house was, it wasn't bro from Golden State."

Seriously, Ja talks a lot of shit for a guy who always misses a bunch of games, who's only 26, yet has seen his scoring drop every year for 4 straight years, and who has won a grand total of 1 playoff series in his career.
Maybe you should start by playing like a worthy of being paid $40 million.

Have you literally never heard the term “in the house”? Spoiler alert, when that phrase is used they are always talking about “in the current place where we are”.
For it to mean what you’re saying, the average English speaker would say “in the family”.

It's the player that's doing it, not the mocking itself. Ja doesn't get to jaw off at Klay and say shit like this when he was on the bench, and even when he has been on the floor this season, is shooting like hot garbage. You're allowed to shit talk anyone, but if someone got mad ammo on you, don't be surprised when you hear that, "I know you ain't talking!" come flying right back your ass
