Funny part is he didn't disrespect her, he ignored her, which to her mind was worse

Exactly.

You can tell she's not used to it...but the real sexist shyt would be to allow her to play the victim as if she isn't a strong enough woman to make it that far in the sports industry. If she was a real bytch she'd throw her hands up like fair enough, I shouldn't expect someone to come on air and be cordial with me after talking shyt about them.

But why would up and coming players endorse BBB instead of creating their own line? That is the point right, to cut out the middle man?

Breh, who knows if that's what these players have the energy/interest to even do. It's not like this is Lonzo's creation. His pops realized he had 3 kids who could hoop and is writing his family's ticket off of those kids. Which is fine because at the end of they day, this company is theirs. But what player has time to outwardly run the business day to day?

And I don't see why up and coming players won't wanna rock with BBB when this shyt really pops off. Lavar just needs to be able to at least pay them a decent endorsement.

:manny: What he said was facts tho. Lavar wild, but I respect dude because he be on his own shyt. I like his hustle

"I wanna go 100% but now I'm going 80% using 20% worrying about vindication" :ehh:

I'm glad somebody ain't scared to clap back at the media. Fat fukk Whitlock got it too :bustback::bustback::bustback:

Crazy thing is if Lonzo balls out, he'll be validated and was right the whole time. Don't like the Lakers but I'm pulling for Lonzo

Exactly. The benefits of being your own boss.

Yep, and to be honest he killed her threatening and victim game when he told her he was scared of her and that is why he wont engage.
She really had no come back for that except to cry about him hating women.

But what would be the real difference between endorsing BBB and endorsing the other companies? The main complaints I see are that players are being exploited, companies aren't paying them their true worth, it's better to own your own instead of shilling for someone else, etc.

Why then encourage players to do the same thing just for a different company?

Cause at the end of the day Lavar/Lonzo/LaMelo will likely look out for their best interest first just like those in power at the big 3 do


If more people do it, then there won't be just 3-4 companies benefiting....More people will have their own brand, and their own supporters. Just like in anything else people buy. There's no limit on how many brands can be available. It's really that way now, but Nike, Addidas, Under Armour, etc is middle man between the people/their money and the players pockets. Players will look out for their own interests, and they should, because that's what everybody else is doing in this life on earth. Nobody is going to take care of you, so they should take care of themselves and their families.

But people should also be real and realize their is a history in this country of minorities being taken advantage of, and it will continue until minorities make moves to stop it.

what kind of argument is this?

Lonzo is worth 10000x more than Lavar. LaVar is the one taking the millions Lonzo will generate. LONZO is the money maker.

Lonzo and their high school playing style and being a top 2 pick is the reason this family has so much attention. It wasn't like he was going to get a Lebron rookie Nike contract anyways from Nike. He was going to get the same contract guys like Wiggins, Rose and Blake Griffin got.

Are you trying to make a legit argument that signing a 3 year Nike/adidas contract for $1m per year with an opt-out then starting your own shoe line wouldnt be smarter and less riskier?

You're attributing shyt to me that I never said anywhere in my post breh.

I never said shyt about Lavar being the money maker or the reason they're getting attention. Seriously where did you get that from my post?

My point was that Lavar is trying to build and independent business with his kids and it's fukked up that people are trying to knock him for that.

As for who is the source of the attention and weatlh, that's obviously Lonzo. Lavar building a brand that their family owns off Lonzo is no different that Lebron's crew building as sports agency and entertainment production company off Bron. Bron throws in the money but everybody else doing the day to day stuff.

As for risk, if you're going to be an entrepreneur there's going to be a level of risk involved. As it stands now if BBB takes off without any backing from Nike/Adidas that could result in an even more lucrative deal down the road.

I keep hearing this narrative. And it's a good angle. But that's not what he said. He said, "Because you're a hater!" If he would have referenced how she says he raises his kids is abusive then she would have immediately fell back and started copping pleas. :sas2:
when he said "she scares me to death" he was def referencing her saying lonzo was terrified of him.

Living off your kids is corny. Not allowing and encouraging them to speak for themselves is corny. Instead of pushing Lonzo's brand, his image, etc for this business you keep talking about you as though you're somehow deserving off of your son's success is corny.

Running around talking this pro black shyt about a guy with a white wife and sons who have white girlfriends is REALLY CORNY!

I hope you have kids and they are really successful and then cut you completely off cause they don't want to be corny...

He's their father what don't you get about that?
