Got the LeBron stopper at #23. This was a good draft.

Re: 2017 NBA Draft

I've seen waaaay worse sports parents than Lavar. He's just loud and charismatic. He knew the minute he went viral he banked on it and is the riding the train. He knows he's the heel and is laughing his way to the bank.

I've seen parents threaten and fight coaches, refs, other kids parents, abusing the child verbally and working them to death. To me that's way worse than being loud and believing in your kids.

That's enough of me defending them, Lonzo's a Laker now so he can eat ****.

Skip got a little too real and ended the Lavar fun:

I will not condemn LaVar for overloving his son. Too many dads are never there for their sons. Mine never was.

Steven A had a very similar take on LaVar during First Take.

Re: 2017 NBA Draft

I see Magic Johnson is in full hyperbole mode already.

Says Lonzo's jersey will be hanging in the rafters.

Is this before or after 3/4s of the league gives him the Toni Kukoc treatment? Dude is gonna get cooked on a regular basis for his father's big mouth. He better have some thick skin because Lonzo's gonna be on a lot of memes this season.

We all know that guy who is fat and ugly but he looks in the mirror and thinks to himself that he's a sex icon.

LaVar is that guy. Props for the confidence though. That counts for something

Re: 2017 NBA Draft

Lonzo's response to the tweet was perfect "that's funny".

He's gonna be just fine and he seems like a low key, chill kinda kid. He ain't stressin' about all this nonsense regarding his pops mouth.

Bigeast sounds more vested into this than Lonzo himself Lmao.

Re: 2017 NBA Draft

The funny thing is that the type of obnoxious marketing Lavar is doing actually works on people. If you repeat things enough people will end up believing in anything. Some peeps seriously think Lonzo is gonna get the Lakers in the playoffs.

They're good people. I think Lonzo will put the work in but I'am just saying the outlandish crap Lavar says all the time, people tend to believe in it after a while. They buy into the hype big time.

23 what's your opinion on Lonzo ?

That was cool to watch and his grandpa does seem like a chill dude, my father is a Lakers fan and always has been. He was like lord I don't want to get Lonzo because of his dad. I was like dude that kid can ball period, they showed his stats and %s and I look at him like and you don't want that?

I liked what Magic said in the introduction video about forget all the other stuff me and Lavar had a talk man to man then talked about his character and their family life. That tells you something right there, also in the introduction video they talked about how he helps other kids in the neighbor hood and trains them not just his sons and is equally hard on them all. This dude can say whatever he wants, some of it I find funny some I'm like what ever or I'll ignore it, I must say I hope Lonzo does good and the Lakers make the play offs cause I'm going to trip out when he wears that "I told you so hate" Lol
