  • In this video, we delve into the challenges facing the Ball brothers-Lonzo, LaMelo, and LiAngelo-in their basketball careers. From injuries disrupting their development to off-court distractions and struggles fitting into team dynamics, the brothers have faced numerous obstacles. Coupled with the immense expectations set by their early hype, these challenges have led to the perception that their careers are falling apart. Join us as we analyze the factors contributing to the Ball brothers' struggles and explore what the future might hold for these talented athletes.

    If LaMelo was drafted by the Warriors, LaVar would’ve complained that his son is on the bench, Curry is washed, Warriors are old, Kerr is an idiot. Would’ve been a mess.

      LeVar got his children to the point that they could make a difference in the NBA much less make it there.
      You obviously don't understand what it's like to have a strong father in your corner and please don't tell me personal experiences because if that was the case you would understand his intentions.
      Alot of people were thrown off by his machismo but it's who he is and in a sense who they are as men.
      Too bad they are prone to injuries and THAT'S the REAL problem or they would be REAL game changers. He almost had all his children in the NBA.

    This was a really well made video! I have always been intrigued by these dudes since I first saw them play in person back in their AAU days. In the NBA Lonzo had a ton of pressure on him in LA which no-doubt derailed him. LiAngelo I feel has always had too lofty of expectations in order to "prove himself", I think his coaching staff had a grudge against him in Greensboro which is why he played so erratically. And LaMelo has the keys to his franchise which is everything you could ever ask for... but its Charlotte...
    Also, I hate to sound like a hater, but it is funny how Lonzo finally shot the 3-ball really well for his final 35 game stretch of his career (for now) and it has resulted in him going down in history as one of the league's darling "what-ifs" in a similar vein to D-Rose or Brandon Roy. People conveniently ignore that during this career best run he had the 6th worst in the league 2P% of 42% (minimum 383 FGA, 231 qualified players). Or the fact that his net rating was still minus 1, his career best. He also failed to draw fouls (0.8 FTA/G) or make his free throws at even a league average rate (his 75% career best compared to 77% league average that year).
    Not to say Lonzo wouldn't continue improving, but people like PG13 romanticizing him out to be the best point guard in the league because he could pass on the fast break and got hot from the beyond the arc, are being hyperbolic.

    People can hate on Lavar Ball all they want, at the end of the day Lavar was able to get 2 of his 3 sons into the league. That within itself tells you that the man knew what he was doing. There has only been between 4,000 and 5,000 players to ever play one game in the league, that’s less than 0.001% of the current U.S population. Lavar’s goal was to get his sons in the league after that it’s on the ball brothers to produce and that they did. The only flaw that I would say was a problem was that the boys were over worked and may have had injuries prior to the league that we the fans never knew about. Lavar did what 99.999% parents hope to do, usher his sons into success.
