that can't be right.

brake disc are bolt onto the hubs, so as the calipers. ball joint wouldn't cause your disc to warp

sticky calipers causing pad always in contact with the disc thus lead to warp disc?

If the ball joint was that bad you'd notice looseness in the suspension or steering.

If they shake when your braking HARD this is completly normal.  try light braking see if it still does it, if it does.. Time for new discs and shoes
