He’s an idiot after all.
We may have to cut him man. Unbelievable
Crud. Hopefully it's on video and the police look more out of line than Jaxson. The domestic violence angle may end up hurting him more than the battery on the police. But if there is video and it doesn't look good for Jaxson, my guess is he may end up getting cut.
Living up to his Sideshow Bob persona.
Yeah, clearly not good. First a "domestic disturbance", which could be anything but doesn't bode well, and then this as a follow up?
Obviously I'm not going to assume anything about blame - I'd sooner drink bleach than take a cop at their word - but frankly it often doesn't matter who started it in situations like this. You hit a cop, even if they started it, you're generally screwed.
Now we know what Pick 17 will be used for.
No way this team invest big money in him. They're going to trade him before he's up for a new contract.
This is fine
The cop ended up hospitalized. That’s all that needs to be seen.
Should have popped in here before starting a new thread. I break news Steven Adams makes free throws.
Ill wait to see the full story on what really happen before calling him or cops idiots. But man this offseason is starting to look like a drama show on tnt.
The hell?
It's very strange that the only report was from TMZ, considering he spent time in the hospital. You would think his manager would have put out a statement by now. Also, don't believe everything you read on TMZ. There is a 100% chance that this was not Hayes' side of the story. Not worth the speculation
Yeah I think people are rushing a little too quickly to the "Hayes is such an idiot why would he be so stupid and assault a cop" thing.
Like yes, absolutely, that could be what happened. But the Thabo Sefalosha cop incident wasn't that long ago, and the Masai Ujiri one was even more recent. You should know by now that just automatically assuming that the cops were innocent in such a situation, and truthful about it after, is at least slightly unwise. Wait to find out what actually happened before throwing Jax straight into the garbage.
Unbelievable. Well, he is likely done with the team and maybe the NBA.
Welp. That really, really sucks. Was so excited to see how Jaxson continues to grow as a player, but who knows what happens to him now. I guess we wait for more details, but not optimistic.
What an idiot.
Welcome to New Orleans Kai Jones.
Oh for sure, it's not a good situation and it could easily be Jax who is in the wrong. He's got a little record for behaving rashly (didn't make the rising stars team, remember that video?) Which doesn't help.
But we simply don't have the information needed to make a judgment yet. We don't know what the domestic disturbance was, we don't know who initiated contact, we don't know what Jax actually *allegedly* did, it's all unknown to us as yet.
This is why we can't have nice things
It’s not even the assaulting cop thing that makes it look bad…. It’s the domestic stuff that he tried so hard to keep the cops from seeing…or whatever else that was in the residence that scared Jax into fighting so hard. This story has a lot of issues.
Dumb**********
Given the social climate and his money and resources, I think he will be back by training camp, but I still bring back Willy and take either Bassey or Queta with a 2nd
Low iq on and off the court
Well that’s a bit premature. Imagine saying this about Masai Ujiri where even a cop claimed to get attacked by him and get a concussion.
Could be real bad for Hayes but we don’t know the story yet. Domestic disturbance can be a nose complaint for a party. And a “brawl with cops” could be just him blocking them from entering the home and then tasing him before realizing he can sue them like sterling brown.
Just when Mac posted his most positive Pels Tweet too
Universe vetoed it
If all of the guys I knew that got tazed in college made the front page of TMZ... well there would be a few less lawyers. As long as the domestic issue is not one of violence
Jaxson Taze(d)
Bro ruined his career in one night..all that hard work to be in the %1 to make it to the league and he screws it up. We have to release him now and move on.
For real. There's so little information out there right now.
This could be "Jaxson Hayes engaged in domestic violence before cops showed up and he violently swung at them, knocking one unconscious" or it could be "Jaxson Hayes played his music too loudly, cops showed up for a noise complaint and started a scuffle after he didn't let them waltz into his front room" - or anything in between.
There are so many high profile cases of cops either misreporting or, frankly, completely fabricating stories of violence against them that just assuming they're the woeful victim on basically zero information is akin to getting your wallet inspected.
Damnit Jax. You have too much talent to be getting caught up in this crap.
