    ESPN and every single loud sports talking head needs to give Lavar his PROPS and their apologies!! They CLEARLY showed they had NO IDEA what he was talking about and only had such strong NEGATIVE opinions on what Lavar did bc he was a BLACK INVOLVED Dad!! That's it! You never heard anybody trashing Archie Manning when he said Eli wouldn't play for the team he was drafted to and basically controlled the destinies of Peyton and Eli!! Everybody applauded him for THAT but said Lavar was "too involved" and "helicopter dad"….all negative connotations! Black Dads have it hard bc even when we're involved then we're TOO involved….can't win smh

    It's crazy how literally rn while melo in his million dollar home chilling on it eating half of his food and throwing it away ect ect. & in other parts of the u.s/world people are literally starving cuz there's no food.. to some people life is everything they wished for while others SURVIVE DAY TO DAY.. LIFE IS NOT FAIR AT ALL..

    I LOVE THE FACT THAT WHOLE FAMILY DID NOT LISTEN TO OTHER PEOPLES OPINION, AND DID IT THEIR OWN WAY!
    AND NOW THEY ARE REAPING THE REWARDS..!!
    COMMITMENT AND CONSISTENCY WITHOUT YOU WILL NOT SUCCEED!

  12. @borood1188

    They’re trying to hype this whiteboy up, he is nowhere near Ant1’s level. It’s a joke.

  13. @mathewmorales1670

    Now he is an all star

  14. @pranavmanie1479

    and in his 2nd year, he's an all star 🙂

  15. @dumbdumbcowboy

    how could you forget about spire

  16. @pauldenson4678

    Why is this even a question? His game separates him from more than 75 percent of the league. He makes others better. He is more famous than most of the players in the league. He puts people in the seats. He is good for business. Only a incompetent person or a hater would deny his entry a an all star 🌟. Hes got what true basketball fans want. He is very entertaining to watch. The question should be. How come they sleeping on Gelo. Hella weird.
