I didn't hear it straight from his mouth but I believe it is just media again twisting his words.
I've heard lavar on a few interviews and his responses are very sensible although polarizing bc of how deep he goes one way w his opinions. But I never once heard him directly say something that doesnt make any sense to me and I always get his logic in his thinking and agree w him.

So him just coming out and saying lebron's child isnt good is just something I wouldn't feel is agreeable if he just said it without any regard to courtesy or consideration to others feelings.
I'm sure there was some context that is missing

I've heard it through the grapevine..NBA gods have already designated Los Angeles LAKERS as NBA Champions in near future. The destiny is real. TRUST ME.

Lonzo is getting a one way ticket out of LA, sooner rather than later, and he can thank his dad. Maybe he wants it?

The idea that this is fake news or that LeBron will just let this slide is very myopic.

That said, LaVar probably should know better than to talk about LeBron's kids... Yes, I do believe he's a lot smarter than people assume and most of this is calculated... Which makes him responsible in some way.
True and what most don't really know about the JBA, as much as LaVar was trying to prop this league as an outlet for high schoolers who didn't want the college drama...the league was actually full of college rejects who didn't go to the big schools. Most of these dudes were 19,20,21 years old in some cases. Of course Bronny at 13 would have to try out.

But at the same time Bronny has a better support circle than most of those rejects had, they were the type of guys who thought they were better than they really were went to college and found out how flawed their games were. LaVar gave these guys a 2nd life, most have picked up overseas deals and some got try outs with G-League teams.

But LaVar needs to be more calculated in how he speaks on LeBron and Laker matters from here on out...Magic and Rob in a way more advantageous position to boot Lonzo more than ever now.

The whole nature of discussing a 13 year old playing in a (presumably) professional league run by lavar ball being discussed by lavar ball is quite strange and somewhat humourous. I don't know if there's any sort of response I have to it other then that.
