Or maybe he has faith in himself. Not everyone has to follow the status quo.

If Ben Baller wants to act like that, he needs to explain him trying to making LRG still pop years after the buzz died.

the same future draft pick who by all accounts, is a gym ratNothing to portray.. Lonzo is hiding behind his dad to fight his battles. Notice they don't invite Lonzo to these interviews... it's always Lavar! He's the star, yet the attention is on his dad? How embarrassing is that? I mean yeah he's only 19 but I can only imagine the roasting he will receive by being called daddy's little boy.... did you get daddy's permission? Did daddy say it's ok? This can't be real life for a future draft lottery pick!
the same draft pick who wasnt out in Ney York smiling but back at home at a 24hour gym working on his craft with his brothers
papa ball aside....lonzo laying low like hes supposed to.
what battles????
not being at the combine, plenty other guaranteed top picks skipped it
not taking meetings or working out for teams....nothing new, why work out for the suns/kings of the worlds when you know you wont be on the board long enough for them and dont want to go there anyway.

Battles meaning when the stupid idiot blonde reporter talking all that trash about him... it shouldn't be Lavar dissing her.. it should be Lonzo! Lonzo should be the one going on these interviews and promoting the brand not dear ol dad!
I mean I was laughing when I saw that ESPN cover... here we have a potential NBA superstar but the guy can't even grace the cover by himself... his dad's big ol head is there covering half the damn page, and the title is based on his dad! Come on... after age 18.. you gotta be a man. It is what it is though... Lonzo = Lavar so it's a package deal at this point!

Did Lavar kick you out of his training camp or something?

What happens if BBB turns into the next UA? College aged dudes built UA up from the ground. Why can't Lavar attempt to do the same?

cause a pro athlete (soon to be) really has to respond to any and every reporter/blogger/etc that says something critical about them
yeah that makes a lot of sense.

I'm highly convinced 95% of NT is severely lacking in professional soft skills and business acumen, hence the support for Lavar in this situation
I don't think anyone who frowns upon his behavior actually thinks his message is wrong. In fact, he had every right to disregard her opinion and put her on front street.
Where he continues to F up tho is his delivery and irrational behavior in the wrong setting. There are multiple ways he could have gotten at her without coming off ratchet and disrespectful, especially when you're peddling an upstart, grassroots brand and business venture. Not to mention, he was on their show
Guy needs some serious PR training and an advisor, otherwise, he's going to continue shooting himself in the foot with his mouth and ruin a potentially good thing.
From the outside looking in, it seems like he has too much ego to seek help from a PR standpoint. Ship is gonna sink if he doesn't change his approach. Things will be 10x worse if Lonzo struggles next year as well. Outside of that rookie deal, he could be sabotaging his family's earning potential by the way he's been coming off.

C'mon man, the UA dudes had the proper business education/background, advisory, and overall backing to make UA work. They went about building an athletic apparel company the right way and targeted small then scaled accordingly.
Lavar Ball already dismissed the little guy and female demographic within 7 days

and on top of that UA brought thermal compression gear into the game, that was their bread and butter. All lonzo has brought to the table is terry cloth sweats and badly brushed teethC'mon man, the UA dudes had the proper business education/background, advisory, and overall backing to make UA work.

Never been a laker fan but I'm on the lake show wagon as soon as they draft Lonzo.
And that box is clean as hell...
Will definitely be put up as an art piece in the crib.
Be prepared to have every reason why they can't be.
Edit: too late

Lonzo would have been on the Kobe system for sure.
