Ball Brother signs with Pistons
LiAngelo Ball one of the top 3 Ball brothers signs with the Pistons. His dad says we should now win a championship.

So much for filling out that roster with high character guys.....
Oh well, training camp fodder.

At least he's played in Lithuania so he can hang out with Sirvydis in a Grand Rapids apartment.

Re: Ball Brother signs with Pistons
Just when I thought the off-season was ugly, we salvage it.
Comments to rationalize bad contracts -
1) It's less than the MLE
2) He can be traded later
3) It's only __% of the cap
4) The cap is going up
5) It's only __ years
6) He's a good mentor/locker room guy

His dad also claimed to be better than Jordan one-on-one.
Which I guess means he's consistent.

I checked, and you're actually right. Liangelo's and LaMelo's team played against Sirvydis once. LaMelo scored 31, LiAngelo scored 29. Sirvydis finished with 19 points and a blowout loss to the Ball brothers.

We're having a Ball with all these roster moves... glad to see Weaver has a sense of humor.

To me that’s one of the best parts of the hornets drafting LaMelo. At some point (probably every time they are in the same area) Jordan is going to trash talk lavar about the one on one challenge

Re: Ball Brother signs with Pistons
Seriously, Weaver saw him in the Oklahoma City G-League, so maybe he knows something we don't.
It's not guaranteed, so apart from the Ball family antics, this is a no-risk maybe-reward signing.
But, I don't want to be serious. I want to say this guy is a steal, if not a stealer. Yes, I'm a bad person.

Hope this doesn't mean that their b@t-5hit cr@zy dad will start getting some unwelcome media mileage in Michigan.
