I dont see how everyone is ignoring this. I think alot of the dudes praising and hyping Lavar have no positive father figure in their life or never had one so they think this extreme example is true "black fathering". They dont know what proper fathering looks like. Those two boys entire body language looks so unhappy and disconnected. Head straight down, shoulders slumped, hardly any eye contact, a very closed off body language. They looked...small, defeated, no confidence. It goes beyond being nervous or bored. They look unhappy. Couldnt even answer the question about the Lithuania decision which leads me to believe they had no input in the decision at all. It seems like Lavar truly does want whats best for them and I can respect that, but I dont think the boys true deep feelings are being heard. Whether or not they truly want to play Bball is up to them, but I think Lavar should give them more autonomy in how they go about it. Just my opinion, i dont want any dustmites starting up arguments with me:ufdup:

Or it could be the fact their kids? Especially with Melo they still both may be immature.

I will say Lavar "you can do your own thing just don't run back to me" statement is telling.

It comes off as damn near forcing your own way. As a parent I'd hope he'd have open arms to re grow if they decided against him Specifically in Gelo case.

I thought the same thing about that statement,but I don't think he'd leave them out in the cold,I mean Gelo just was caught stealing in another country knowing damn well he didn't have to and Lavar still has his back,I think he'd be pissed but wouldn't disown his kids if they made a decision that went against his

He let them talk, but they're kids, they don't have anything substantial to say at this point in their lives. They aren't street kids, so they aren't going to brag or sell wolf tickets about how rough their life has been.

A 18-19 y.o. doesn't need to shine like that. He's doing what a father is supposed to do. He takes all the criticism on his shoulders. He knows that everybody wants to use his kids for their own gain, and for free at that. He set his kids up in a way that they don't have to worry about money. Put it to you like this, a father who lets his teenage kids do whatever they want, is usually bailing them out of jail, multiple times.

Y'all trippin ,Lavar definitely doing the right thing far as his movement,but it's not about him,the kids are playing basketball,they're the ones who have to keep the brand going ,they deserve to speak

How can ya'll continue to hate on this man. He is showing you all the blueprint to bypass corporate american and do things on your own terms.

There is no blueprint to bypass Corporate America, because at the end of the day, you're still gonna need Corporate America for favors to be able to get to where they are.
