LaVar Ball: I sent Trump shoes after Twitter feud

In an interview with CNN's Chris Cuomo, LaVar Ball discusses President Donald Trump, the NCAA, and his decision to pull his son, LiAngelo, from UCLA's basketball team.

"I HAVEN'T LEARNED A THING" 😂😂😂😂😂😩😩 I like how he taught his son to never give anyone the opportunity to determine where you end up. He kept it moving and his son will continue to be successful.

[@rhondarobertson3483]

No he wont, he's not successful now. No school wants him, because of his father, he's considered a problem, because of his dad. His dad is going to ruin his career, the only way this kid will make it in life is if he gets away from his father. His dad has used his kids to make himself famous and try to get rich off of. I Feel bad for his children.

Yes! I agree.. I also hope it is lastly!

[@barbaracorrea6865]

The son is not privileged. If any other college player whose father is not an athlete and committed the same crime he would be off the team.

[@vickeygilliam2592]

We all love our kids but wrong is wrong 😡

[@softballgirl54]

I may not agree with all of Lavar's decisions, but I don't have to- they're his kids. Not mine. I think he's a man of integrity and I admire that. He's got an amazing, positive attitude and doesn't pass judgement on the people who don't agree with him. He's emotionally intelligent enough to say, "Hey, we can agree to disagree", rather than character assassinate everyone who doesn't see things his way. I hope nothing but good things are ahead for you and your boys. No matter what happens, you'll be a family at the end of the day and that's what matters most. God bless!

[@spinner9057]

The way he sings "thank you, thank you" HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

[@stefanmolejo4578]

Cuomo's FACE as Lavar talks is AbsoFUCKINlutey Hilarious!!!!!!

[@phill2]

He does have a point. If China moved on, why can’t UCLA. And by the time LiAngelo gets back he’s not gonna know the system, the offense, the schedule/routines as much as the other players that have been doing it all year long. Thus leading to insufficient minutes (that don’t matter) if any.

[@LadiesOfThePleiades]

I actually like Lavar Ball.

[@sandragaines7152]

To mr. Lavar thank you for standing up for your son and not letting other people dictate when he should be forgiven. I agree you done the right thing. Because nobody is perfect everybody makes mistakes. After a heartfelt apology and a lesson learned we should be more forgiving as children of God.

[@simplicitysounds7795]

I never liked Lavar at first but he is very genuine

[@cmarev3509]

You can't blame the coaches for the actions of what your child did. If you taught them right from wrong and they willfully go and steal then they are accountable. When you are abroad you represent the school and held accountable for anything that you do and the school has the right to take action when you get back home. They are lucky as a matter a fact very fortunate. Other countries laws are more severe than ours when it comes to stealing. It's a privilege not a right to attend college and he put his privilege in jeopardy and if they sit them down for the season then so be it.

[@kevvvz92]

Great guy , he's obviously committed to his kids

[@SM-eq6uk]

[@uk2209]

Is he a comedian, he make me laugh and I like his words of wisdom

[@dmkays]

How dare anyone hold Lavar Ball's sons accountable for their criminal behavior. Llevar should ask Michael P. Fay about criminal justice abroad. He knows first hand, because he received a caning in Singapore for the 'no big deal' crime of vandalism. If I were in Lavar's tennis shoes, I would be more concerned that my son's know right from wrong, than seeking interviews with networks that only care about their ratings.

[@Sheppesh]

How many interviews with LaVar will Cuomo keep losing? LaVar is the GOAT of Dads today! Given how black men are treated in the U.S. and the West in general, only black fathers or sons of black Dads really can appreciate this dude. CapoVelli, yes, LaVar keeps winning!

[@Openintelligence1]

He's right. The Chinese government took what steps they considered necessary, and let them go. That's the punishment for the crime. If it was so minor that they were just released, then there's nothing there to punish them for and it's not the job of UCLA to ruin someone's career to punish them for something that's been dealt with and it's everyone's right to fight for their careers and take whatever action they want to in order to further their careers and not be shit on by a university because it fears for it's own credibility. UCLA's reputation is secondary to the careers of the students.

I believe this man is passionate about standing strong for the rights of his Sons. Although he is not admirable in being a listener of others opinions , nor does he listen to the questions by media, I believe that this man is correct in his responses and his determination to represent his Son as a "non-criminal", If we as a nation and people of justice allow a human being to be incarcerated, confined to jail walls for shoplifting... then why in the hell are so many pedophiles, murderer's, rapists, fraud businesses/owners, and bullies along with many other criminals, who have created horrible crimes, allowed to simply pay a small restitution and then be set free after a short time or no jail time at all... There is something tragically wrong with the justice system in this country.
