****The Everything LaVar Ball Thread****

[cedric ceballos]

So dudes are now turning on lavar?

It was all good earlier in the year tho.

Lavar Ball doesn’t pay my bills.

If he does something I like, I’ll co-sign it. If he does something I think is outlandish and counterproductive, I’ll acknowledge it too.

At the moment though I think he’s making some moves out of emotion and not looking at the end game though.

 

[ahat]

Theyd eat ramen and spam like tons of other college kids

 

[VARNELL HILL]

they voided whatever paperwork they signed so u lose all privileges, these dummies could be serving

 

[Cashflow]

They ain't starving the meal plan was apart of the scholarship, they voided whatever
paperwork they signed so u lose all privileges, these dummies could be serving
3+ years in China who gives af about a damn meal plan at the end of the day

Just becauze you repeat something multiple times doesn’t all of a sudden make it true. At no point were those kids in line to serve 3+ years of jail time.

 

[freakydestroyer]

They never went to jail

I know for most of the time they weren't. Gelo said they arrested them and put them in a jumpsuit somewhere.

 

[doublemesh96]

I thought I heard him say he was in jail a day and a half?

 

[Tony $now]

UCLA should’ve just expelled these dudes then. I hope they have this same energy if a non Ball kid does something stupid.

 

[storm2006]

The meal plan was excessive. Taking away food is a excessively petty thing to do. So what if Gelo got money, other students this happen to might not.

That’s a valid point.

I heard that too in the NBC interview

I haven't watched the interview but no such thing was mentioned about jail when it first happen just said they was in a hotel and couldn't leave...

I hear you, but he's been this way. I thought what he was doing was counterproductive to Alonzo's career before it even started. Now it's just escalating, and he's looking more foolish.

Tbh if those other kids are suspended for the year, with no access to team related benefits (practices, athlete weight room, coaching, meal plan) they might as well leave UCLA too. Except transfer to a diff college, unlike Gelo

I don’t think UCLA has stated how long the indefinite suspension will be, so maybe they’re thinking they’ll lift it soon. Like when Grayson was suspended indefinitely last season he missed 1 game over about a week of time. Maybe UCLA will let em back in soon

It's not that simple. Per transfer rules, they'd have to sit out for a year if they transfer to another D1 school.

That’s fine if they go d1, they’d be redshirting so they’re still a part of the team, practicing, film, coaching, eating, working out with the team

Or they can go juco and ball out and then have their choice of d1 schools

I’m saying if they’re gonna be out all season they might as well dip. Sucks though cuz season already underway

 

[VARNELL HILL]

You do realize that it would mean they’d essentially be sitting out 2 years instead of one right?

As for the JUCO route...schools already started...so they wouldn’t be able to do that until next year either.

LaVar crossing the line with his Lakers comments now.

 

[EddieDoyers]

You know it isn’t looking good for Lavar when he got Shannon Sharpe disagreeing with his moves

 

[hand2handking]

i heard he plannin on liangelo playin streetball?

 

[freakydestroyer]

You know it isn’t looking good for Lavar when he got Shannon Sharpe disagreeing with his moves

Shannon Sharpe is just having buyer's remorse because he forked over $495 for some sketchers.

 

[God]

LaVar crossing the line with his Lakers comments now.

What's the latest comment?

 

[RustyShackleford]

What's the latest comment?

He said Zo is disgusted because they are losing.

And blamed the coaching staff for not playing Lonzo in the 4th for their bad record.

 

[VARNELL HILL]

Why do we lend any credence to Lavar Ball's comments on the Lakers?

It's really bizarre to me. Let's keep it a buck here...90% of sports talk consists of BS opinions. First Take, Undisputed, SportsNation, PTI, NikeTalk, etc.

What makes Lavar's commentary any different than say....Colin Cowherd's or Bill Simmons'?

If you're telling me it's because his son is on the team...I'm not buying it...because he's not in the ******* locker room or have anything to do with the team in ANY professional capacity.

He didn't say **** about Julius Randle that hasn't been uttered by millions of people on Twitter every day...or by any NBA Analyst within the past few years. But suddently because his son is on the team...it holds more weight?

I don't get it.

 

[God]

He said Zo is disgusted because they are losing.

Haha, sheesh. I rock with Lavar, but not blindly.

Any links?

 

[EddieDoyers]

 

[tireless drive]

LaVar finna get Lonzo kicked off the Lakers next

He just can't shut up

 

[EddieDoyers]

If you're telling me it's because his son is on the team...I'm not buying it...

That’s the problem though. Lonzo already playing inconsistent, and Lavar saying the problem for that and the losing is the coaches? And also he trying to implicate Lonzo’s words into justifying his criticism lol

Lavar gotta be realistic with this, Lonzo is talented, but his production doesn’t warrant him to be playing in the 4th quarter all the time for now. Lavar gotta chill on this one. This isn’t Chino Hills high school, this is the NBA,and you can’t be talkin this type of disrespect about the Lakers organization. Lonzo doesn’t need the added stress and pressure also.
