April 10, 20179 yr I wouldn't draft Lonzo Ball if I needed a PG and he was the only one in the draft.
April 10, 20179 yr If the kid is a good one then every GM will draft him if available and it fills their need. The dad will have no effect on draft-ability. I think college coaches might shy away from him but both of his kids have already committed to UCLA. Saw this weekend were the dad has started his own Sports Agency and will only represent his 3 kids. This is exactly why GM's should steer clear of bringing any of his son's into the organization. The kid hasn't even made it to the league and he is already letting it be known that he should be treated as something special. Talent is hard to pass up, but not being able to sign the talent or having dad trash the surrounding talent is never worth the price. Just my opinion but time will tell. Signing will not be a problem if he is drafted. The salary is slotted. Now after the rookie contract is up then it could be another story.

April 20, 20179 yr I wouldn't draft Lonzo Ball if I needed a PG and he was the only one in the draft. Which is why you'll never be an NBA GM. :lol2:

April 20, 20179 yr Which is why you'll never be an NBA GM. :lol2: That may be true but I guarantee you my life won't revolve around a circus like LaVar Ball.

April 21, 20179 yr I hate this argument. What LaVar said was stupid and yes racial, but what has he said that wasn't ignorant? The reason this argument doesn't work is because those white guys haven't been discriminated against for decades. It's not the same. Two wrongs don't make a right.

April 22, 20179 yr That may be true but I guarantee you my life won't revolve around a circus like LaVar Ball. Whichever NBA team signs this kid trouble will follow, with the name LaVar attached to it.
April 22, 20179 yr Two wrongs don't make a right. I didn't say it did. I think what he said was ignorant and racist. It's still not the same as a white guy saying it.
April 22, 20179 yr LaVar Ball talking big again, claims Big Baller Brand will be rival to Nike - CBSSports.com I don't think I would buy any of this brand
April 22, 20179 yr I don't think I would buy any of this brand Have you ever seen any of the items? lol there's a link in the article, it literally looks like flea market knock off clothing
April 22, 20179 yr Have you ever seen any of the items? lol there's a link in the article, it literally looks like flea market knock off clothing No and don't even plan on looking
