I root for him because I like the principle of him creating a business and having something to pass down to his kids.

and why do you think i dont?

why do you think i have "smdh" and not LMAO?
because i see him blowing alot vs taking this shit seriously.

"how do you know he dont take it seriously?"

for multiple reasons.
see why you think someone is hating....i have always said i dont want him to fuck this up. lets not act like i didnt say it.

the media is making him look like a fool. why would i be ok with that?

but on the flip side...niggas need to take note of what hes doing wrong.

also, remember i always said this shit is in his hands....the media is handing him many marketing opportunities. why he can say things here and there to keep the attention...some shit doesnt need to be said and hurts him more than hurt him.

I don’t agree with everything he says or does. But there are enough white folks and coons (not calling you one) that are piling on him, so I don’t see why I should focus on what I don’t agree with, instead I’ll focus on the things imo he does well.

well i appreciate you not calling me a coon.

i look at it like this....dont half ass something and draw all the attention to you and act a fool. dont cuss at your kids on video. all that shit is not whats up.

at some point...he will destroy himself and take his kids with him.

why do they deserve that?

this shit is not selling sneakers. hes selling sneakers because people want to support him going against a system.


hes so focused on being right...he missed that hes already right....it just takes patience.

This is all about perspective though. You see it one way, I see it another way.

i have and i would do the shit again.

long story very short.......his mother told him he didnt have to listen to me and told him to go and get one of his football coaches to come to talk to me.

while i was waiting for him, i saw him and his coach walking towards my car.....he didnt know i already saw the texts from his mother the day before.

i get out the car fuming.

he going to come up to me and say "my coach has a few words for you". i floored his ass. and then i went after the coach....nigga was moving back so fast he almost fell...

the coach saying he just was there to make sure nothing happened but wasnt expecting me to do that.

me and the coach chatting for a bit, he apologized , we shook hands and walked away.

my son never attempted that shit again and he got right ever since.

i was known as the crazy black parent.....and the judge seen the texts just in case any shit came my way.

say what yall want. fuck it......like i said, i would do the shit again if put in that same situation.

Dude having fun. He's Trolling. He's just one of those guys. Some people are just loud and talk shit all the time...and Lavar Ball is one of them. I always say if for any reason I become a celebrity, I hope it's just me being myself, having fun and talking shit. it will be easier to stay in character if he's being himself. And overall people hate loud mouth obnoxious assholes, and they want to see him shit up and humbled. I don't think his character should have any effect whatsoever on his son's career. The media circus is only as big as people play into it.

I mean when it comes to overnight celebrities and people getting their 15 minutes of fame and what not, I prefer Lavar Ball to a lot of these celebrity housewives. I mean in comparison. the "cash me outside" chick bout to make millions for being obnoxious and disrespectful on dr phil....

I much rather a black father being supportive of his son playing basketball and trying to build a ridiculously absurd brand for themselves cash in on the trendy nature of our consumer public than that chick....

I like Lavar Ball, he's a necessary evil....I hope he gets a job on a sports show....we always need that"keeping it real "voice.. and after enough years int he game a lotta these commentators tha try to keep it real get stale and vanilla

ie stuart scott, and stephen A

this is an interesting post.

just reading thru this thread since it was merged.

while i agree....we need the keep it real voice.
his ideas and his way of going about it tells me this aint his lane.
he can be a good father without hurting his kids. prop them up and dont allow evil intentions to be directed to them.

If the lakers want to trade Lonzo today....would teams really run at an offer? its not about Lonzos skill...its about what his father brings.

his personality would be good in certain areas...but he tainted his brand because of his mouth.
 
Attention whore in the age of butterfly-like attention spans. So, he constantly has to do attention whore shit to stay relevant.

Props to him for holding his family down, but dude is a dickhead, straight out.

LaVar Ball has a new business plan inspired by the country that his sons LaMelo and LiAngelo are playing pro basketball. The boisterous basketball dad says he’s going to import water from Lithuania to the U.S. and label it as Big Baller Brand water, per ESPN’s Darren Rovell.

Rovell added that Ball said it’ll be priced similarly to brands like Perrier (a 24-pack of 16.9 oz. bottles goes for about $15) and San Pellegrino (24-pack of 8.4 oz bottles goes for about $17.50).

LaVar Ball says he will import Big Baller Brand water from Lithuania to the US, says price point will be on par with Perrier or San Pellegrino.

Big Baller Brand and LaVar tweeted out links to a Fresh Sports Talk story titled, “Big Baller Brand Water Will Make LaVar Ball a Billionaire Very Soon.”

However, the story refers to a Lithuanian website called 15min. That site reported that the mineral company LaVar hopes to partner with sponsors Vytautas, the team that his sons play for, but is (roughly translated from Lithuanian to English) “not yet in a hurry to praise plans for the Atlantic. Says that it’s too early.”

Big Baller Water coming soon. Imported from Europe. https://freshsportstalk.com/2018/02/09/big-baller-brand-water-will-make-lavar-ball-billionaire-soon/ … https://twitter.com/lavarbigballer/status/962056967844806658 …

LaVar Ball to Reach Billionaire Status Soon with Big Baller Brand Water
The Big Baller Brand CEO may have just struck gold, or water in this case with a deal with a Lithuanian bottled water company. This move could pay huge financial dividends soon.

15min also includes the following quote from LaVar:

“Wow, this mineral is stronger than anyone else. What player NBA advertises water? Nothing Everybody in America is somehow too proud of water companies. There are energy drinks that are advertised, but nobody even thought about water. And here we come from the Atlantic with water. Lithuania has the best water in the world! Zero nitrate! What kind of water is more transparent?”

NBA players are involved with water, though. For instance, one of the NBA’s biggest stars, Steph Curry, promotes the Brita water filters.

There’s also this very on-brand quote from LaVar:

“People will feel that they will become ‘Big Ballers’ when they drink it. This will give the water a reputation.”

So, Big Baller Brand water is coming soon! Maybe!
