Put away the cape my man.Why do we lend any credence to Lavar Ball's comments on the Lakers?
It's really bizarre to me. Let's keep it a buck here...90% of sports talk consists of BS opinions. First Take, Undisputed, SportsNation, PTI, NikeTalk, etc.
What makes Lavar's commentary any different than say....Colin Cowherd's or Bill Simmons'?
If you're telling me it's because his son is on the team...I'm not buying it...because he's not in the ****ing locker room or have anything to do with the team in ANY professional capacity.
He didn't say **** about Julius Randle that hasn't been uttered by millions of people on Twitter every day...or by any NBA Analyst within the past few years. But suddently because his son is on the team...it holds more weight?
I don't get it.
Big difference between a talking head and an overbearing parent. Go to any high school game and you'll see how awkward and corny it is for everyone.
But we all saw this coming a mile away. So can't act surprised by what Lavar is doing. Lakers knew what they were getting themselves into....
