Lavar “on the fact that” ball

[@GoTasteandSeeJennifer]

😂😂😂

[@joondagoon6774]

lets go lonzo bring the passing back, bring the defense back and get a ring

[@tonychesssnutsss1404]

I love watching LaVar ball. He is so entertaining.

[@lonewolfmoves8667]

Lavar might be right. The Bulls have botched so many injured players since DRose it’s unbelievable

[@I.am_Groot]

That was 3 staffs ago. Maybe 4. Lonzo has missed a ton of games and not just as a Bull. Its a Lonzo issue.

[@Kambo870]

D rose messed himself up. He was healthy enough to play but was scared. Saying he was still mentally unready. Then after being out for so long he rushed in instead of doing what the bulls what. Since they was getting ready to get rid of him cause the head butting with butler, now he wanna go from 0-100 and got injured again

[@JoeKyser]

​@I.am_Groot staffs? any team going through staff like that, has a big problems. No continuity is dangerous for the players. Especially ones with injuries. You never know who is going to handle what because the staff is rotating so much. If thats even the case. You used it an excuse. I am just pointing out the reality of a situation like that. It would be an excellent argument for Ball

[@I.am_Groot]

@@JoeKyser Blah blah Tibs was FOUR coaches ago in Chicago and NOBODY with the Bulls made Lonzo fragile. Period

[@JoeKyser]

@I.am_Groot that wasnt my claim. I was just pointing out the absurdity. I had to lay it out like that. I feel you

[@Nitramgnikcufelad]

Lavar ready for any questions and gives no F lmao

[@LetMeMuse]

They are low key mocking Lavar, but they also mocked him when he said his sons would play in the NBA. Those that don’t like this man always moving the goal post, when at the end of the day , the man been right about his kids all along

[@JoeKyser]

Rooting for Ball

[@rashardstallworth9240]

Lavar and Tina Ball are two college educated parents. They raised 3 of the best players in the country. Chino Hills was the #1 Team in the country. Lavar trained them so he knows their bodies, their needed training and nutrition but these organizations don’t listen. Lavar averaged 18 and 13 for 3 yrs in college it all bring up the 1 yr he didn’t get any playing time. The. Lavar made two NFL squads and played in NFL Europe winning the championship. Lavar is right

[@jaybrown7367]

Great job with those men he raised. Yall take notes on how to be a father. Represent ya kids and theyll Represent you. The respectful honorable way

[@WIIICCITYDoowop]

I don’t really like this interview every question they asked felt like a trap/quote question the dude on the left kept steering the questions into a bad narrative

[@RWildekrav66]

Hopefully, but for how long ?

[@leehumbert7200]

as a Lakers fan I hated they let zo go I pray we get a chance to get him back even if it's far fetch

[@deandreray3500]

All those years Levar had them boys playing and working out 7 days a week took effect on them

[@shehryarmalik5704]

Terrible interviewers imo. Felt like they were attacking Lavar the whole time.

[@lamontt.rossjr.3101]

Lonzo ball believes that he can come back and be somewhat of a player that he used to be but us as fans have to believe that he can come back to as well that gives him strength and power to heal and come back I mean we want him to come back we want him to have a great excellent wonderful recovery

[@alfieb6711]

lonzo has got this year then im gonna give up on him cuz it’s too much time out

[@Baff93]

He must have an Achilles injury I sustained a partial tear on my Achilles Aug 2023 and I’m still not at a stage were I can even do a light jog let alone competitive sports

[@dagzplusone555]

As a a father I get it mr ball, 1000%.

[@I.am_Groot]

Did he? Taking Melo out of school at 14 ending his chance to play college ball? Having Gelo play hurt in the JBA instead of rehabbing for the NBA draft? I mean we all make mistakes but he doesn't get any shade for those?

[@dagzplusone555]

@@I.am_Groot by “as a father I get it “ , I mean his loves his sons, idk if you have any children. Really good points, Groot personally I don’t know much on the gelo situation but ik he’s gotten a shot to play in the league and just couldn’t hang. Multiple summer league, pre season etc So idk if playing in the JBA really hurt him that much on chances to make the nba. I thought the JBA was huge for thee strides in the NIL era of College and other institutions like G League ignite and OTE to open opportunities. Strongly see on see the argument for education 14 yr old Melo. so I agree on that, I think education is important especially in formative adolescence, and him going back and finishing Hs in america @ spire was kinda cool. if I’m not mistaken he was picked 2nd and imo idk i watched a bunch of the reality show and idt Melo even showed much like he wanted to play in college ball. All his sons get to make a living playing game he taught them in the backyard, as a father I get it mr ball.

[@senthesnake]

@i.am_groot Lavar’s wife tina was a school teacher for many years he was home schooled while playing pro ball same thing done with luka, wemby, and many other international players and gelo has always been over looked which is pretty common being the third child and it also didnt help getting arrested in china

[@I.am_Groot]

@@senthesnake Brush up on your facts she was a big g baller and last job athletic director for a local school district. Gelo never been overlooked just over hyped. Lavar owes everything he has today to the talent and hard work of his boys none of which got the majority of their athletic abilities from him

[@senthesnake]

@@I.am_Groot what ?? 😂😂 she was AD at a middle school there’s no middle school in this country that pays someone to be just an athletic director i’m more than sure they’re either teachers or counselors as well and Gelo wasn’t even invited to McDonald’s All American after avg. over 30pts and i wont even respond to that last statement (DNA exists dawg) lol

[@user-by4kb4we9h]

Weird interview - but enjoyed Lavar. The hosts, terrible.

[@luckylucian007]

yep..both suck

[@MogulKhan-pf9tl]

Ball is going to come back and do what? Get hurt again ? And why even talk to his dad about this ?

[@jabirgorane6023]

I love lavar ball can’t wait for the boys be to be a force in the league!

[@senthesnake]

Guy says your kids are very reserved and quiet he doesnt know lamelo 😂😂😂

[@Blacklist324]

He's in the final year of his contract so of course he's trying to get back on the court. It doesn't take a genius to see that.

[@urtwurm]

Burgers with no meat 😂

[@luckylucian007]

Lavar is a genius. These two clowns are, clowns.

[@_face773]

Everybody is getting in on the water train. Even Bo Jackson has a brand.

[@_face773]

Don't get it twisted , Lonzo owes the Bulls 2 years FREE of charge

[@mauricewalker785]

you get hurt at work you still owe your job 2 years that sounds so dumb

[@babyblueLEGEND]

No.Just no. And what difference does it make to you? It's not your money

[@CamWick]

no he doesnt

[@chalkdog3095]

Lavar lying thru his teeth. Lol they trying to hold until lonzo contract over.

[@sherylrush1795]

Why do LaVar has to speak for his son got to be in the lime light steal like he can’t announce it for himself

[@I.am_Groot]

LaVar is full of himself. If he ain't getting credit or the situation isn't what he want it to be dude always layin blame on other people. Its pretty shameful at this point to be fair.

[@tylersick432]

Why should be blamed then?
