The Ball saga is all going to amount to a fantastic trainwreck of a documentary someday.
Imma take my Ball and go.... to Europe?
- Thread starter Bret44
- Start date
Best 30 for 30 ever? Knowing how Lavar embraces attention he'd probably narrate it, direct it, and produce it.
- So, if some team in Europe wants some PR will they actually sign BOTH of these kids?
- Will dad move to Europe so he can keep micromanaging their lives?
- Will a European team want to get interfered with like Big Balls did in AAU and HS?
- Do Euro fans even know who the **** these kids are? Or care?
- Do the kids have a Euro Step move?
The big winner here is Steve Alford. He got the best one of the bunch for one year, saved his job, got his contract extension, and then got to wash his hands of the whole mess.
Thread title is incorrect. Could one of the mods change "ball" to "balls"? tia
That whole family is nothing more than basketball playing Kardashians. It's too bad once they move to Europe we'll still hear of them because of social media.
If Lavar stays in the US, the kids might actually learn how to play basketball. If Lavar goes with them to Europe, Lonzo might actually be able to play without the distractions from his father.
I'm late to the party because I've given the Balls about as much thought as they deserve (virtually none).... but I thought I'd heard recently the younger two brothers are not even considered pro prospects?
Linagelo isn't. Lamelo is a pretty highly rated recruit with some services, but it's unclear how much of that is just because of the name recognition. In what few highlights I've seen of him play he looks like a chucker. Nothing special.
Beat me to it. Could and likely will be a 2 or 3 part series, similar to the OJ one from a couple of years ago, hopefully minus the domestic abuse and eventual double murder.
there's... two kinds of dumb, uh... guy that gets naked and runs out in the snow and barks at the moon, and, uh, guy who does the same thing in my living room. First one don't matter, the second one you're kinda forced to deal with.
Good luck in Europe
Good luck in Europe
This actually could be the best move for the kids basketball wise if (big if) Lavar sits back & allows them to actually be coached. Put them on a junior level team in Europe playing against players in a similar age range & let them learn to play actual basketball & not Chino Hills style and it'll do wonders for them. Doubt that happens though.
No way Lavar sits back and watches them run an actual offense. European style of play and Lavar Ball’s view of basketball don’t mix at all. I honestly think it’s going to be tough for those two kids to find a landing spot.
