This guy is just absolutely delusional. Wants a 1 Billion dollar shoe deal for his kids and also said he could of kill Michael Jordan 1 on 1....

http://bleacherreport.com/articles/...jordan-billion-dollar-marketing-deal-for-sons

He played one season at Washington state and Avg 2.2 ppg 2.3 rpg and 1.0 Apg... Only shot 45% from the charity strip too.

This guy is nuts. Russillo and Kanell compared him to Kris Jenner/Kardashian

What an idiot. Lonzo Ball is really good for a college player, and no doubt his brothers will be good as well. But ask the casual basketball playing teenager who Lebron James, Carmelo Anthony, Chris Paul, and James Harden are, then ask him who Lonzo Ball is. There is the difference between a shoe deal.

How high might I be to suggest that the trio of his kids could get that $1 Billion deal? I think at least two of his kids are great (no, not Lebron great, nor will they ever be, but we haven't talked about high school basketball players since Lebron) I definitely could see Nike being a company trying to put the three together.

I think the guy is crazy, I think UCLA more than likely is feeding him a ton of money for his kids, but he's so damn crazy that he's genius. Make dumb comments, attack people you know you have no business attacking, become popular, $$$.

Dudes insane. But he's rich.

Is this legit? If true, I need to change my brackets RIGHT NOW!

Edit: After a quick google search, I'm not too worried
I assume that's satire, but those quotes could have legitimately come out of that man's mouth. You can even buy one of his brand's t-shirts for $60. What a deal.
Haha, no it is not legit. But the fact that you even thought it could be true shows you something haha

I said in another thread that LaVar is the Trump of basketball, just spouts off outlandish crap.

the Kardashians of sports. Their reality deal may build a brand, but a number of NBA players are dying to show his son the ropes, so to speak.
It's too bad because from all I can tell, Lonzo is a stand-up kid. Seems to be level-headed and doesn't talk ****, plays for his team it seems, and isn't outspoken like his dad. Lonzo Ball would be the perfect bball recruit if noone knew anything about his family.

Lavar is trash. He barely averaged 2 points at Washington state and later transferred to a D2 school to get playing time. I think i could even take him.

I'm not sure, seems like the type of guy who would call a travel every time you score on him 1v1

Lonzo is obviously talented and seems like a good kid. Hopefully his dad doesn't mess him up too bad.

Haha that's funny you say that. Idk if you heard but he said since he was 260 he would back MJ down and then call a foul on MJ
