****The Everything LaVar Ball Thread****

Minor league hoops in America has failed over and over and over since the beginning of time and the D League/G league would also be bankrupt if it wasn’t funded by the nba

Every top recruit has the choice to skip NCAA for the G league and 0 did it this year bc they all rather go to college

Or because 19K -26K salaries aren't all that enticing when you can get 75-100K or more from illegal street agents via Nike/Addidas in the NCAA.

Yep. Not one person did it. College is just too big of a platform to showcase your skills. Good luck Lavar. May the odds be ever in your favor. #Nevalost |l
 
Once Diddy gets shut out of buying the Panthers, he should approach Lavar to invest in this

LOL. Can't be serious champ. Dudes are just throwing anything at the wall and hoping it sticks. Why the hell would Diddy go from attempting to purchase a MULTI-MILLION dollar organization like the Carolina Panthers to then turning around to invest in essentially a neighborhood basketball pick up START-UP league. Dudes gotta get off this nickel and dime Rent-A-Spoon mentality.

Crazy...but in thinking about it, and JUST from a clothing/shoe standpoint, but what's the difference between BBB and Rockdeep Inc.?

You gotta point champ. Two light-skinned scammers.

Nah BBB actually delivered, but took several months.

Man I can’t belive KKKam is capping so hard for a guy who made him promise not to get any tattoos.

“it’s just allegations”
 
This talk of lower league pro hoops got me thinking, yall don't even know how amazing a balanced schedule, tiered league system of professional basketball would be in America.

Silver and Stern before him knew though. :{
 
A sizable part of LaVar Ball’s appeal for people he happens to appeal to is that he’s a walking, talking distillation of many of the half-baked but smart-sounding arguments about sports that often occur in barbershops, during happy hours, over barbecue pits, at spades tables, and on the bleachers of ****** league football games. It’s in those predominately black spaces that you will find people like him; large in personality (and often also large in stature) men who are so easily affable and funny and demonstrative and bombastic — and so sure of the things they’re saying — that they seduce people who either latch on to the one truthful nugget in their avalanche of ******** or just plain want to be seduced by such an important seeming man.

Of course, these types of men don’t only exist in black spaces. Just a year ago, (white) America was seduced by an affable and funny and demonstrative and bombastic man who also seemed very sure of the things he was saying. It didn’t — and still doesn’t — matter that he’s full of ****. He had (and has) big sounding ideas, easy answers to impossible questions, and an uncanny ability to shift to the next pitch when the details of the current sale are asked to be provided. Donald Trump, like LaVar Ball, isn’t just a salesman. He’s a confidence man.

Where Ball’s blackness matters, however, is when adding the context of this black man challenging the predominately white power structures of amateur and professional sports — the NCAA and the shoe companies specifically. So even if you don’t particularly **** with him (and I don’t), it’s hard not to root even a little bit for a man who takes those half-baked barbershop arguments and applies them on a national level.

Wasn’t xfl made by a white guy?

The difference is, as absurd as the XFL sounded Vince still got people to back him, got the stadiums and players and got an entire season and actually got to see his vision fail.

Lavar is going to have move mountains to even get close that. I mean the XFL actually handed out a chip and everything.
