Uh oh..... the media already about to make a bigger deal of this than what it is.

Now that this is out, every reporter is gonna ask him the same question 100 times a day until he gets frustrated and says something scathing.

Magic probably needs to go ahead and speak with him and make a statement to the media and nip this in the bud

Like how they made a big deal about him in the first place I turn boosting Lavars brand?

Can't have it both ways.

I'm sure BBB stans agree w/ you though, so there is that?:yeshrug:

It was bound to happen.

After saying that he wouldn't question coaches once Lonzo Ball reached the NBA, LaVar Ball continued to do what he has done with every coach who has worked with his sons. LaVar is taking issue with Luke Walton's rotations, specifically when it comes to playing Lonzo in the fourth quarter.

In an interview with Bleacher Report, LaVar wasn't pleased with how Lonzo has been sitting for extended periods of the fourth quarter before entering the game. According to LaVar, Lonzo should be playing the entire fourth quarter if the Lakers want to win. He said after Lonzo played 29 minutes in a win over the Nets:

"Let him play the whole fourth quarter and bet you'll always win. He'll get into a better flow. The in and out, sitting out six to 10 minutes? He's not going to take no shots because he's not in the flow. He don't want to hurt the team by shooting."

Lonzo has struggled considerably with his shot in November, shooting below 20 percent from the field. He was 3 of 15 in that win over Brooklyn with just six points.

While LaVar didn't call Walton out by name, these are the types of comments that concerned teams heading into the draft. At one point, the Lakers r eached out to UCLA for advice about dealing with LaVar.
