If by handful, you mean a dic k head, then yes, I agree.
I believe Gandhi is the only person who knew about real democracy — not democracy as the right to go and buy what you want, but democracy as the responsibility to be accountable to everyone around you. Democracy begins with freedom from hunger, freedom from unemployment, freedom from fear, and freedom from hatred.

Lonzo's father seems to be a handful...

http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/18901427/lavar-ball-seeks-combined-1-billion-shoe-deal-three-sons
seems like he is using his kids for personal financial gain. It's amazes me how asinine and narrow minded his comments are. He comes off as delusional, recently he claimed he can beat Jordan in a game of 1 on 1 in their respective primes. Imagine having to deal with his BS if the celtics draft Lonzo and ends up riding the bench all season. Lamar wouldn't have the mental capacity to deal with the idea of his son coming off of the bench.

yeah. just read the 1 billion $ shoe deal story. Wow.
ball's dad seems crazy enough that I'd pass on taking this kid. Its not gonna work out in boston. Clearly they want LA and i think LA is a good fit for them and can keep them . :)

Man, I really like Lonzo's game - wouldn't touch him with a twelve foot pole now though.

Ball's value is going to drop..

Unless the Lakers don't care, but can you imagine if any team takes him and Ball's dad complains that his son isn't getting enough minutes or what not..

Teams definitely should be wary, and it's not on Lonzo Ball himself.

Draft the kid, and then put out a hit on his father.

Since Johnson is running the Lakers now , if they get first pick , and they usually get anything they want or need and  given Lonzos skill set , it's a forgone conclusion for me anyway ,  Johnson and Old Lady Buss will draft him.

I see us ending up with Jackson or Fultz .

In all seriousness, I'm set with Lonzo Ball now. He could be a better version of Jason Kidd and I'd still stay away. LaVar Ball can't control himself and is an unnecessary distraction.

He reminds me of those crazy parents in that documentary "Trophy Kids"

A BILLION dollars? Get real.

Yes

Either this is all an elaborate act so he drops to the Lakers wherever they pick or he is batsh*t crazy.
