Imma take my Ball and go.... to Europe?
- Thread starter Bret44
- Start date
So LaMelo will wind up without even a high school education? Going to be hard to homeschool your kid from Slovenia.
That's what the most messed up part is out of all of this imo. One kid isn't going to get a college education & the other isn't going to get a HS one past sophomore year because of dad.
Does anyone know if this is truly what the boys want to do, or is it just Lavar's wishes?
Is there any point where some sort of officials would step in to do a check on this kind of thing, or do kids have no rights? Can a dad just make his boys do whatever he tells them?

Gelo can tell his Dad to **** off, and Melo could sue for Freedom from Parental Custody, but he has those boys so cow whipped that they won't do that.
not going to read through 4 pages on this subject but the title should read
"Imma take my balls and go..." since they are both going.
I agree that going to Europe for a couple years would make high level prospects better basketball players than playing AAU and a year of college would. The problem is it's really hard. Jeremy Tyler couldn't stick it out, Emmanuel Mudiay got hurt and replaced in China, Brandon Jennings has talked about how tough it was for him. And none of these guys had the excess baggage that the Balls will have. It's not a game anymore, you're going up against guys who are doing this for a living.
No high level European team is going to want to waste time developing these guys. LaMelo looks every bit of 16, he's going to get dominated by grown ass men. The only way these two end up playing together is if they find some low level team that wants whatever publicity they can get from signing them.
Okay, it's Bleacher Report but someone actually talked/asked Euro teams. Big Balls mouth got ahead of himself here.

Big Baller Brand has 'F' rating from Better Business Bureau
When it comes to ordering any merchandise from Big Baller Brand, the new motto is: buyer beware.
Big Baller Brand, the apparel company created by LaVar Ball that represents his three basketball-playing sons, has received an F rating from the Better Business Bureau, as pointed out by TMZ Sports.
A file for the company was opened on April 18, 2017, and 32 complaints have already been filed against the company.
They have received 12 failure to respond to complaints and five complaints that were unresolved. They have a 1 star composite score out of 5. They have 44 reviews on the site — all of which are negative.
People have complained about either not receiving their items or receiving the wrong items.
We know of some famous people who have ordered their products, but it’s unclear whether they’ve ever been received. Bottom line: This is not a good look for the Big Baller Brand.

Soon to be forgotten in Europe. Reminds me of a phrase All Hat and No Cattle.
Magic Johnson has to regretting drafting into this freaking circus sideshow.
