It was a complete joke of an article by ESPN.

I believe at one point Lavar said they would be good with Lonzo at the 1, Lebron at the 3, and Liangelo at the 2.

You know, as annoying as I always thought Lavar Ball was, I did not think he would be this disruptive. No matter how good he was, there is a 0% chance that LeMelo or Liangelo ever play for the Lakers.

Or in the NBA for that matter.

The middle one, definitely not. I think he's legit, not good enough. The youngest, I don't know, some team will *if* he's good enough, but it won't be the Lakers, they won't be doubling down on the Ball family.

Sad part is Lavar probably thinks all three of his sons will be Lakers.

Unless the youngest one blooms, the way LaVar is stirring **** up with comments about Walton I don't think any team would want that type of distraction outside their lockerroom for an ok player.
Yea, no way Lakers take on another Ball after LaVar keeps on running his mouth.

Yea, that's more or less what I'm saying. If he has lottery talent, some team will still take him in the lottery. Anything less than that and he could easily slip to round 2.

Bench him until they shut up.

Some of the writeups Ive seen make Lamelo seem incredibly inefficient. Like how you would expect a less talented Nick Young to be. That is probably an accurate way to describe alot of 16 year olds, but Lamelo isn't going to get the coaching now to refine his game

He'll get the best coaching in the world from Lavar Ball
-Lavar Ball

Rick was just doing his job as head of the coaches association.
He cant really attack Ball directly but he can attack guys who ask Coaches for interviews and then giddily broadcast someone else blasting them.

The Ball boys have 1 player it he family. Lonzo and he has to learn to shoot the ball.
LiAngelo was never going to be a dominant P5 college player but might have been a plus guy in 4-5 years ta UCLA which is pretty friggin great.
Pulling him was stupid.
LaMelo is a chucking machine that weights 100 pounds soaking wet.

Lavar is making it all about Lavar which has always been the problem.
