LaVar Ball is one of those annoying sports dads who lives vicariously through their more talented children.
Ball, 48, is the father of UCLA Bruins freshman star Lonzo Ball (pictured above) and Chino Hills (Calif.) High School standouts LiAngelo Ball and LaMelo Ball, a sophomore who recently scored 92 points in one game.

LaVar Ball, who averaged 2 points a game in college, groomed his 3 biracial sons to be NBA superstars from birth.
“I told them, ‘Somebody has to be better than Michael Jordan. Why not you?'”
Ball generates headlines daily by comparing himself and his sons to every past and present NBA star, including Jordan, Steph Curry, Charles Barkley, and now LeBron James.
In a recent interview, Ball suggested LeBron is too focused on his own career to cultivate his sons’ basketball skills. He said LeBron hires a trainer for his sons, “Whereas the fact that I wasn’t all that, allows me to take the time to make my boys all that.
LeBron took offense at Ball’s remarks.
In a statement to ESPN, LeBron said:
“Keep my kids’ name out of your mouth, keep my family out of your mouth. This is dad to dad. It’s a problem now.”

Ball is so rigidly defiant that, according to a family member, he refuses to let his sons see their mother, Tina Ball, who had a stroke on Feb. 21. She is still in a hospital recovering from brain surgery.
“Pathetic!” said the family member, who told Armchair All Americans that Ball visits his wife for an hour a few days a week. But his sons are forbidden to see her.
“The Ball boys are not allowed to see their mother, Lavar is afraid it will take away from their game(s)…. Notice, she is not at any games, she is not at work, and she is not at home. Someone needs to ask the question, where is Tina? She is severely disabled and paralyzed on right side…”
In a post game press conference following UCLA’s victory over Kent State in the opening round of the NCAA Tournament, a reporter asked Lonzo Ball about his mother.
Lonzo, ever mindful of his dad’s master plan for him and his brothers, declined to respond.
The ONE video/interview I’ve seen of this man, he does seem to be a lil arrogant. HOWEVER, I’m all for being a cheerleader for your children. I tell PP all the time, never limit yourself to the expectations someone ELSE puts on you. Go the extra mile……….it’s not crowded there. Tuh.
these folks are hideous
LOVEZOE https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/d39c19595553721e6416a1c0e018fb553a0abf0068093b1529a94c77324c16f7.jpg
@Man warned us about men that show all of their teeth lmao
Ppl going to learn to stop speaking on other ppl kids .. its tacky & disrespectful & can get you smacked. Do better beige man.
She didn’t even credit me lol
Yeah, his boys are good, but he goes hard for them. Says his sons will be the first to have a billion dollar shoe deals. He says they are better than Curry, Jordan, and Lebron.
groomed his 3 biracial sons to be NBA superstars from birth.
*****
A late start I see ?
That’s right. Not today or tomorrow will you speak on my kids and get away with it
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/4c1198d2c14658cbc406e367fbf9eaf0bee60da1093682a6baa4da54b9d7617f.gif
That’s right boo. Lmaoooooo @ beige man!!!! Kyna name Liangelo?!?? Dafuq?!?
I see I said ? Gurrrl …lol.
If you score 92 points are you that good, the other team suck, or you a selfish player.
What pist me the entire hell off is how they got on a reporter for asking about Tina Ball’s health the other day as “being out of line”. LISTENNNNNNNNNNN. They dragged John Wall (Raleigh/Garner stand the HELL UP!) past through the MUD about his dad, prison, how the dad got out. How the dad passed soon after and bled to damn death. YOU NAME IT. John only played one season at Ken-fukky. But it was THE “march Madness” story that year. I ALSO have a long ass college basketball memory. It used to irk the absolute LIFE outta me how they used to drag Juan Dixon parents lives up about them having been heroin addicts, died of AIDS, rough and tumble etc the hell up too every fukkin March that he played.
But this white cave demon woman dare NOT be brung up? FOMF.
Why is the concept to leave children out of things hard for some to grasp?
ON Topic: Mr. Ball is all about his children- which for a black man is rare- per blog logic
On Topic: Lebron ready to windmill, so I suggest Mr. Ball gather all his little Balls and tread lightly.
Off Topic: Has anyone been watching the Kaleif Browder Series on Spike? It is tearing at my heart, but Lord that young man was something amazing and would have been such a force.
Amazing huh
Ken-fukkky…….dat way ??
Ive read abt it . Cried while reading and saw a clip .. it would disturb my spirit to see the doc so i probably never will.
I believe in this too but this is WAY different. LaVar Ball pissing everyone and I do mean everyone the hell off about these boys. He is like a stage mom gone WAY wrong. You cant do that in basketball. You might even be able to get away with it in football. basketball…? Nope. He over the line and been over it.
SURE DID! LMAOOOOOOOO
Right ..lmao
It’s a different set a rules when that happens. I go hard behind mine.
Not ready to watch it yet..
I remember how they always talked about Dixon fam. I was mad too. Like we get it. Y’all reported it. Move on.
When I saw him on RHO Potomac, I was like look at Juan making it in life despite having addict parent (insert eye roll to the critics)
I only watched one interview. Maybe they are. I wouldn’t know and I guess I don’t care either. LOL
He needs a life , and to stop living vicariously through his kids. Life is more than putting a ball through a hoop, and who can make more money. His ignorance and greed is disgusting. Instead of pushing them so hard for sports, he needs to push himself and them to have knowledge and wisdom, that will take you further than the NBA.
That to me shows weakness. Ive never had to tear any one else down to build myself?mines up . He a crab in a bucket mf.
Was it necessary to say that they were bi-racial?
I called him a stage mom last night lol.
SELFISH PLAYER!!!
Actually comes to find out that story is FAKE and it JUST came out yesterday that the man they said got the mom hooked on drugs, gave her dirty needles was NOT Juan daddy. Hold on. Let me go find it. But hell YES it ticked me off
Helicopter dad.
I saw a little bit of it. I was getting really pist watching it so i had to take a breather. System so messed up and all that boy wanted was a better life than what he was thown into from when he was literally born. But….sigh unfortunately he was black in the hood and wrong place wrong time. I just was too mad to keep going watching it but I eventually will. Story needed to b told
I kinda pegged him that way from that interview. LOL That arrogance sauce is too much for ME. LOL
Ive never had to tear any one else down to build myself?mines up
*****
THIS!!!!!
The first part of the write-up is misleading. But, LeBron is right here….I’ve agreed with Mr. Ball so far, but not in this.
He’s totally anti-establishment. He formed his own AAU team for his sons so they wouldn’t play on AAU teams sponsored by shoes giants like Nike or Adidas.
Annoying. LOL
I read about it and was determined to watch it-almost missed it. It is horrible, but I want to hear his words and his thoughts and why he refused to accept the bs plea deals they tried to shove down his throat.
I just can stop saying how amazing that young man was- was born into hardship and had to keep fighting.
Said he refused to plea, because something told him that he shouldn’t.
Great minds. He does too damn MUCH. And it pretty much decided if he does not stop that his son is not going pro anytime soon due to it. NOBODY wants to deal with that. He keeps it up they gonna investigate and FIND some kind of wrong doing. Cecil Newton (Cam newton’s loud mouth daddy) anyone? He almost derailed that damn dude career with his BS.
They say he rarely crossed over the half court line. Didn’t play a lick of defense. He just waited at half court for his teammates to pass him the ball so he could score.
http://collegebasketball.nbcsports.com/2017/03/20/the-truth-behind-the-story-of-juan-dixons-parents-comes-to-light-in-new-special/
Kudos to the father! Good for him.
They tried to drag Richard Williams (Serena and Venus father) LOOK at them.
We need more parents to push their kids, instead of them wandering aimlessly around. Fighting, catching cases and all the other BS that could PERHAPS be avoided.
I agree with this. Cuz you the way he acting you can be assured palms getting greased
Just stating the facts, hun.
What if, I hope not, but their careers are cut short or completely derailed??? How is he preparing them with possible exit plans? I think not having a plan B can be a good thing, but why train his kids to compete with original greats, who no one could possibly replicate! K O B E was great, but nothing he or LeBron will do can eclipse what MJ, Magic or earlier BB legends accomplished like Wilt C.! You can only really, really compete against yourself!
You ever call Tiny biracial?
Sandra hates that shes dark skinned
Credit you for what? This story has been all over TV and the blogs. Do you think I have time to read EVERY comment on here?
I sure have. Next question?
Wrong. But thanks for reading.
Empire comes back on tonight ?
Story needed to b told<—-YES and I am glad they got a chance to tape him telling his story.
“Sometimes I feel like I’m never gonna be the same,” he admits after his release. “Deep down, I’m a mess. I’m 21 and on the inside, I feel like I’m 40.”
“I felt like I was done wrong. I felt like something needed to be done…something needs to be said. If I just cop out and say that I did it, nothing’s gonna be done about it. I didn’t do it. No justice is served,” he said.
My daddy said Archie was a pure fool when it came to Eli, Peyton and Cooper … All I got … lol
It seems Lonzo is on the Joe Jackson and Matthew Knowles train.
If thats the case we should salute Joe Jackson to ..just saying its levels to everything .
People look at it as the black dad trying to get rich off his sons,but if it was a single mother it would be they good boys playing so they mom can have a better life…since dad around expect him to get demonized and maybe the sons also
BLOOP
There is no plan B. Out of those 3 boys, one of them HAS TO MAKE IT.
Bingo.
What if, I hope not, but their careers are cut short or completely derailed???
____________________
THIS. I don’t like to think like this or put it out in the atmosphere, but I was thinking “I wonder if he cheerleads as hard for their academic ability in addition to their physical ability.” All it takes is one bad rebound and then what? Again, I wish them the best, however folks need to remain humble at ALL TIMES!
can’t be mad at that …
Ill watch it one day but i just cant now. Stuff like this really hurts my heart …
?sure Sandra….& i skim??
Has he been accused of beating them? I used Richard as the example.
SMILES EVERYWHERE OVER HERE. Happy Wednesday!!!!
You do today obviously
I’m not mentally prepared to watch it.
Definitely watch it when you are ready, as it will piss you off and have you crying at the same time.
All these year later. I’m happy he still has a surviving parent. I’m going to have to catch the rerun of this so I can hear his story.
The media don’t like manly black dads that dare speak they mind,they prefer the single parent mom look
Nothing wrong with rooting and pulling for them. But I need for parents (in general – that don’t usually do it) to cheerlead for their children’s academic abilities as well. Being famous don’t mean shit when you can’t read the contract you’re signing.
I don’t think it’s fashionable for a black dad to behave like a MAN
I promise you I am not in every post reading every comment. If you want credit for a story, email me the link.
I would like to see Lavar v Barkley. Barkley hates senor Ball lol
Micheal Jordan dad pushed him, Kobe dad pushed him….That how greatness is made. I’m not talking about extreme…It parents that push there kids for spelling bees, just academically overall. NO difference.
You don’t see Not one person talking about Friday Night Lights white football players.
and Friday Night Lights could be anywhere they breath football.
Parents need to mind they own fukkin kids business
You could be right, but this guy comes off as a jerk whose mouth could costs his sons in the long run.
In the words of Low E, “Et al.”
Their mother is in a hospital and he refuses to let his sons see her. Is that a part of pushing his sons to greatness?
I read the story/article on him long time ago. No, I have not watched it.
THIS! I don’t even turn on the TV……..except Monday and tonight. I missed ILYIW yesterday. LOL
And he will pay for that in the long run, Joe got cut off, so did Matthew eventually the kids cut them off.
They are in college…
agreed, but I don’t think these have issues with comprehension.
And if that is the case every kids excel in different areas…I have two sons one loves to talk about sports, but can’t play for nothing and good in academics. The other runs like antelope, but wants NOTHING to do with it. Balance is everything. HAPPY WEDNESDAY.
I GOT JOY IN MY SOUL

Happy Wednesday to you and hoping all is well in your world, I got joy deep down in my soul.
I’m reading what I was given, I have NO clue about what goes on at 123 Their Lane, In their City USA.
GOD BLESS THEIR FAMILY, and May they be healthy mentally physically and stay on the right side of the law.
D@$% auntie you on one today aren’t you?! Lol…
Kobe was good, and the Lakers were sucky and his team, and he was also known as a selfish player when he scored that 60+ points that one game – LOL – he had the trifecta (Kobe)
I am excited!!! How was If Loving You Is Wrong last night?! Did you watch it?
You dont hve to beat kids to go over board .. mental/emotional ..it was a mere example but youre right be blessed.
It parents that push there kids for spelling bees, just academically overall
*****
This is me. I don’t play about education. Judge if you must ??
Anything that I or PEP8 take part in, we go hard, from marching in a parade to participating in the science fair. If you’re going to do it, do it with your all. Otherwise, let’s not waste time.
Well, he not beating them ..
This thirsty azz dude is out of line! Yes, his offspring have talent. That doesn’t give him any right to tell the next man what to do with his though …focus on them things you have to parent and STFU about everyone else’s.
I also believe that part of the reason he’s pushing his kids is because he gets a vicarious opportunity at a ‘do over’ to improve on that 2-Pt avg through his sons’ achievements.
focus on them things you have to parent
___________________________
LMBO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That’s all I’m saying, my son 19 could care less about anything but his phone. But I told he got 2 semesters in school on my dime. The homeless shelter got room, if they packed, it’s bridges all over the country.
Isn’t Lonzo 19? Is his father tying him up and locking him the basement? It’s crazy to deny a child their parent but unless he is physically restraining at least Lonzo, it’s Lonzo’s choice. Let me check the ages. I think 1 is 15.
Do we know if their mother wants them to see her partially paralyzed? As a (selfless) parent she would want them to keep their focus and not worry about her.
I notice the “concerned” family member didn’t mention how their alleged absence is effecting Mrs. Ball physical and mental recovery.
lol
There is a difference in wanting your kids to succeed and selfishly living out your dream thru your children. The fact they are “forbidden” to see their ill mother is a problem.
THANK you. Health is NONe of nobody’s business.
Why you come in here kicking down the door though ?
Hey ???
Someone heard him say that?
His smile is horrendous! Did you see the discoloration of his teeth? Hmm the dad seems shady to me…especially in regards to his wife/ex. His teeth don’t help either.
?lol
A nameless family member told it.
Like Petty asked, how you forbid an adult from doing anything
apparently a family member did.
*sits with you* I know what LilButter is capable of and will not accept anything less than that.
Unless I hear things for myself and he confirms it. You gotta take HEAR SAY just as that. HEAR SAY…GOSSIP
How long has she been paralyzed ? There should be no fault thrown @ Ball if his grown his kids dont wanna see thier momma but if she’s been paralyzed for a while & he’s put in their mind they shouldnt see her thats different .Either way its strange to me bc boys usally run to thier mom .. so its just strange that they wouldnt be there .
agreed,
_______________________
I stopped reading at that. LOL j/k j/k I feel you tho’.
See, that last part is what’s fugged up. He needs to qualify a statement like that ’cause it’s NOT a given. Going pro is a whole new ballgame (intended). Will they actually rank amongst the best or just become ‘really good’ or ‘solid’ players (which is still an accomplishment) in the big league?
Ms Petty Said something?
This!
People love judging folk’s parenting (me included)… But homie went too far speaking that comment publicly about Bron. He’s just releasing one-dimensional young men into the world who will be socially inept and lack empathy ?
I mean come on, they can’t go see Mama?!
Over a month. had a stroke Feb 21st and than a brain surgery.
So why is he angling for endorsements for them???
*cackles*
easily done if your scared of your pappi
Zoe11 be like why you fussing bout a C you want me to be perfect I’m like Ike no. You are a whiz in science math. No excuse. Then when she see thatA/B on her report card she cheesing .
Tomorrow at 6pm it’s suppose to rain skittles. A family member told me, so it must be true.
New post
According to people on a forum who know the family, the source is her mother.
*hollers* they do have unfortunate faces…hideous
I agree. He sounds like a very controlling narcissist.
I’m watching but I’m not enjoying it. It did clear up some things for me. Namely that he wasn’t stuck in jail over bail money like we’d been led to believe. Otherwise it’s frustrating to watch because we are powerless to do anything to change the situation.
Lonzo Ball born October 27, 1997
LaMelo Ball born August 22, 2001
LiAngelo Ball born 11/24/98
allegedly because I googled
Ok there are some good things about this guy as a dad but he is also very obnoxious. I saw him doing an interview where he was basically saying he always goes after the best so he picked his wife because she was tall (and white) and told her I’m gonna marry you and we’re gonna have three boys. He’s always talking about his sons being light skinned like that’s some sort of badge. They ain’t the best looking kids and light skin ain’t everything. But anyway he needs to quit because he’s setting his kids up for so much critism and he better leave my lebron alone lol.
I’m still not convinced that he didn’t commit the crime.
I can understand your point. ? But personally I would want my children to see me regardless. This woman may be on her death bed simply because of the fact that she had a massive stroke, and stroke victims are at high risk of suffering from another in their lifetime. My mother had a stroke less than a year ago. She is well but we know the likelihood of her suffering from another is very high. Ain’t no way I was not going to go see me mother after her stroke and I have a family to support, a job to do, and futures to mold. And as a mother I would want my children to come see me. As you pointed out, support and encouragement from your loved ones can help aid in her recovery. It sounds as though this woman has a lot of therapy and rehabilitation ahead of her. It’s unfortunate. I wish their family the best.
I’m not mad that he wants his children to have the most and refuses to be sponsored by those companies without. If it were a white pappy it would be “he’s changing the game and holding out is the best option for his children”
No that’s not true, this man is excessive.
Awwww. Tell her she will thank you for it in the long run. MamaButter crawled my behind when I was in high school about a 92 on my progress report. I thought she was being completely unreasonable, but I thank her for pushing me to do my best.
As we say in the south: “They sho do”!!! Lol
Im saying I think it IS since they dragged full nigga blooded players parents up and through. And displayed it.
The hazards of social media ,people over share ,you don’t have to share your opinions on everything ,some things you keep to yourself or only share with close friends
Him being an involved black man I am pretty sure there is a plan B,Cand D that how we roll
Chile…I try not to talk about kids… all I can say is everybody ain’t able https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/fc8bab6a3e96d2cef4b89e10ea41d65c151247fde5bc31fa7a016741085c9cac.gif
They are not pro. He cannot get sponsorship on any level for any of those kids
Kaleif browser happens thousands of times per day in prison it’s just much much worse
Richard Williams is apples to oranges. Tennis was and still is a mainly WHITE sport. He was breaking barriers. THEY were. These Ball brothers are good yes. But there is nothing all white, nearly white, or mostly white about pre-HS, HS, college, or NBA basketball. He being a loud mouth ass against OTHER CHILDREN for NO real reason. Cheerlead for your own. But do NOT tear down ANY child for any reason EVER
All of this too. Some here dont know the history with this cat. Its more than what is just now making headlines. MUCH more
Awww..i feel sorry for the mom that’s messed up.
What I’m saying is when (and if) they are able, why shouldn’t he make companies pay top dollar. If it was a white man, it would be groundbreaking ? He is doing to much but with this, I’m not mad.
Even though the accuser changed his story multiple times, even during the arrest?
You really think that young man endured all of that, even though he was guilty, when he was given the opportunity to take a deal on more than one occasion?
You have to be killing me
I’m not concerned with his plan. I’m stating on his “academic” cheerleading abilities.
If you actually watch his interviews he’s not that bad. He’s a proud father putting extreme confidence in his sons. People say the same about Lebron’s kids as they did about Jordan’s sons. If Lebron’s kids are going to play ball then people are going to talk about them. Kanye shrug.
Pops and the boys sure have a long ass mandible?
I don’t think anybody who watches it enjoys it. That wasn’t the purpose. But I think this was about the brother getting accused of being the Bronx rapist and making them look dumb because he wasn’t. Just seems real suspect that both of these young men were falsely arrested and one publicly accused in the papers, etc
Like what? Cause my take is folk mad cause he not a backwood Ebonics dad maybe if one of the sons was rapping he would get more of a pass
He ain’t no different than
Joe Jackson
Matthew Knowles
Richard Williams
Earl Woods
Now whether his boys live up to the hype the way those four fathers kids did is another story.
Google LeVar Ball and do your own homework
I dont care what color he is or what woods he comes from OR his dialect. My whole take on him is from a sports fan perspective on this cat.
God bless yall.
Thank you Dub! ?
THIS
Now that’s the children, don’t tear down other children.
He did not say cause she white.
Didn’t see that part, but I still think folks need to use cause with he said she said about heath. Private and sensitive issues.
No dummy the problem is that he’s giving his unsolicited opinion about someone else’s children.
He needs to stay in his lane.
I did nothing
??
..??
I’m all for promoting, and instilling confidence in my children, but this man is no joke. ESPN did a story on him, and his sons. The things they said, I hope they all live up to what they are putting out there. Trust me he will make it so no NBA team, and owner will want to deal with them.
The end!
The DAD is tearing down other children.
Its sad to see an adult do that mess
I can understand that. I would think that would be hard on a 15 and 19 year old period. That is why I asked if she wanted them to see her. Right now I would say I don’t want mine to see me that way but he is younger than these kids. My husband assisted with his mothers care until the day she died, he was 12. He’s said his memories of her are all distorted because of what he saw and had to help with. It’s a hard situation. I too, wish them the best!
Chile… ?
Killin’ me softly…???
I hope HE is diff from all of those listed. Bc all of those except Earl Woods…has been estranged from their children at some point or another.
Joe. Check
Mathew Knowles. Check.
Richard got mad as hell when they actually got professional coaches back in the 1990s and other managers. Check.
Up vote +1,000!
The dayum end!
One more time…
Exactly. His kids will grow tired of his antics as they mature and go to live on their own. Guaranteed.
I’m definitely not mad at him wanting better for his kids …just seems he’s wanting the same thing offered by those he’s boycotting .im sure I’m losing some part of the story though, lol
None of those men talked as much trash as this guy does though. He’s on a whole different level.
He’s doing way too much
He’s full of pride (and not the ‘good’ kind)
Did not! This guy just happens to have been making my behind itch for a while now.??
That’s what YOU said…?
Lebron is wealth. His kids will never have to chase balls!
Former trash basketball player pushing his troglodyte children to become greatness. So he can live vicariously through them.Then said former shitty player tries to drag an NBA star in honor of his ugly children. smh.
Nothing compares to that PUSH!
Whispers I already greed…had you some blood (it’s really beet juice)

“The Ball boys are not allowed to see their mother, Lavar is afraid it will take away from their game”

I have a big problem with this.
Family is more important than basketball. Let the boys see their mother.

He didn’t explicitly say it but it was implied through his comments about her and about his kids being mixed. I read between the lines, he was saying things like “I chose everything about her for a reason, my kids are white and black and they can go anywhere and be accepted in any room”. He admits that everything about his life was planned and for a purpose and I took from that he also planned those babies being mixed because it gives them cross over appeal. Watch some of his interviews.
My reaction as well.
WTF…their mom had a stroke and is hospitalized…and this azzhole won’t let them see her…because it will take away from their game?
What type of fuk boy shyt is that? UGH. He’s ignorant, self-serving TRASH.
LOL..PRETTY MUCH!
The guy took a double shot… He just used Lebrons name but he was talking about all those Pro Ballers of his era that dont take care of their kids…. That was a jab and some shade he was throwing… Why the fool used Lebrons name as a example to do it… We dont know… But that guy has to be from Cali… LOL They breed that type there.
Yuck I feel for his kids cause you can tell he is living through them.
Bell is an ignorant father, with ghetto kids names.
He can say all he wants, but LeBron is a known commodity and money maker for the NBA. Doors can and will close on this man if he keeps running his mouth. I wonder how much the experimental league in Kuwait is paying these days?
It was the shady comment that implied LeBron didn’t have a father in his life and that he could have been pushed further, which is none of his business and is history at this point.
Mr. Ball is correct and nobody but c00ns and ppl who like to see weak and effeminate black men will attack him.
god forbid if thees kids fail in the NBA
they dad will be the next one in the hospital with a stroke
I don’t know the whole story. People are sure that OJ did it but I’m not. It’s a me thing.
He talking reckless because he knows his son is about to be the face of the Lakers. & if they play it right, the Lakers will be running the West in the next 10 years. He made his kids for this.
F him and his sons. Why is he only talking about nba players with black mothers.
I’m sorry the lady maybe ill but I have no sympathy about her being squirrel away. She knew what she married. I doubt they love each other. She just wanted to be important. No telling how much slick ish they have talked in the past. I feel sorry for the sons because this is going to taint them when they get older. They should be well rounded enough to visit their mom. They grew up rich!
His relationship with his sons will not end well…
I agree. They will hate him for putting his selfish needs over them.
Umm…. Earl and Tiger were estranged for a very long time. This is why at one point he was only thanking his mom after victories and why you didn’t see his Dad like you did in the beginning. They patched up before he died so that was good.
Alrighty then! All of them. Pushing kids like that can cause mad resentment. Its sad.
sad…I got this vibe about him. I watched his RECENT interviews and got the insecure vibe…a man can only scream & carry on so much before I REALIZE he is insecure lol
sad…I got this vibe about him. I watched his RECENT interviews and got the insecure vibe…a man can only scream & carry on so much before I REALIZE he is insecure lol
I got my first whiff of him last week and although we all want our kids to prosper he is a tad bit wayyyyyy too extra. I wish his three children the best.
He’s a narcissistic bish. He practically abandoned his trophy wife in a hospital because, in her disabled state, she isn’t good for his public image. He won’t even let his sons publicly acknowledge her existence. ?
Wow I only saw a bit because Sir Charles challenged him. The little I saw didn’t leave positive vibes for him but his kids.
Weak! Completely off the hinges, let me call maintenance. Lol.
I don’t think OJ did it, but I believe he knows who did. But you said you weren’t sure Khaleif DIDN’T do it……why? In the documentary and other reports they have concluded he was locked up for a crime he didn’t do and even through all he endured, he maintained his innocence.
I agree FULLY with this!!
Accurate summation
I guess he is the JOE JACKSON of basketball. ..
I know, but sports careers are relatively short anyway, and certain injuries can end it even sooner. College is a very important time to prepare with leverage and creating options. Many spiral out of control when or if dreams are dashed! It certainly happens! I believe in walking in absolutely certainty, and believing without doubt at the same time!
Lebron is a working husband and father. I have seen many videos of their family time together and they seem to have fun. He doesn’t need to push his sons to play basketball. They probably play because they want to be like dad and it’s natural. Why would this guy say Lebron doesn’t groom his sons to play? Maybe he wants them to choose to play or not.
If that’s true about the mother, he really needs to be ashamed of himself. If mom doesn’t make it, these boys will be very messed up in the head. I get that it’s a one and a million chance to get to the NBA, but some things, some ppl, especially your parents very important.

Sadly, that’s why I didn’t bother to watch. I can’t let these things upset my spirit.
SAME! Can’t let it disturb me.
He may not be beating them physically. There are other ways to hurt children. From what Sandra wrote, he may be “beating” them emotionally.
Omg he looks like Drake…LOL
It was sarcasm my luv .
I’m sorry, but regardless of their gender or race, parents need to teach their child that academics come first, and push them to put that first, not sports! God forbid what if one of those boys tears his ACL or something worse, and can never play again? They will have a hard time since their father pushed them in sports their whole life!
I see not one thing that looks like a Drake in these pics. IJS
Dont worry when his biracial sons all marry a white woman in the future Lava Ball grandkids will all look white.
