LaVar wants Melo in Chicago 

Post#1 » by JDR720 » Tue Nov 30, 2021 5:41 am

As to not derail Melo's thread with his dads ****. We're gonna have more stuff like this, so might as well make a thread about LaVar and his antics.

Ran across this on the General board.

https://blockclubchicago.org/2021/11/29/lavar-ball-visits-chicago-and-says-hes-trying-to-bring-all-his-sons-to-the-bulls-together-theyre-great/

Ball is trying to bring that family connectivity to the Bulls. He said he met with the team’s executive vice president of basketball operations and lobbied him to “get all three of” his sons: Lonzo, LiAngelo and LaMelo.

“By themselves, they are good. But together, they’re great,” Ball said.


That f-er better stay out of Melo's head.

I don't want to overreact or be too doom and gloom, but I'd be shocked if Melo actually stays here. His dad is going to meddle around and try to get him to leave for a bigger market regardless of how good/bad we are. He lives vicariously through them and loves the attention.

Eh, not worried about it. For another few years anyway.

Hell just a couple days ago he wanted Liangelo on the Clippers, now allegedly the Bulls. Sounds pissed off that Liangelo can't even get minutes over Scottie Lewis in the D league.

Meh, he only says this because the bulls are the IT team, call me in a few years and see where this is.

Well, I want LaVar to move to Chicago. Stay there for four months straight, no traveling, starting by December 15. Chino Hills is for softies.

If we compete, Ball won’t leave.

I think he's going to leave. But I'm not even going to worry about it for another 5 years.

Bulls window is like 2 years with DeRozan and vucevic, it'll be a whole different story by the time LaMelo is a free agent

Return to Charlotte Hornets
