LaMelo Ball: "We Not Dumb"

[Montalban]

This quote from GQ Magazine would make me beg to differ:

“We not trippin’ off school. We not dumb,” Ball said, per GQ writer Tyler R. Tynes. “We know how to learn. We don’t need school. And school not even teachin’ you shit—what the f— is school?”
Isn't this the dumbfuck that got arrested in China for shoplifting while at UCLA?

No. That was his brother that got arrested.

Cocky little shits like that give athletes a bad name.

They're also one injury away from having to work in Starbucks and become an assistant coach for a high school team

Ahhh, more "veiled" racism from our esteemed board klansman...

 

[Montalban]

Yeah, that whole family is a bunch of ignorant buffoons; starting with the father.

Well of course, any legitimate criticism of a black person is racist. Isn't that the way it works?

In what thread did that happen?

You criticize black athletes all the time. You racist jackass.

Yep Papa Ball is so "ignorant" that two of his sons were high draft picks. Did I call you a racist jackass? Just making sure.

Not that particular "cocky little shit". His rookie contract is worth $35M. He's been a pro player since 16. Why would you expect him to care about school?

That ignorant buffoon's children have earned over 100M in NBA contracts already and they're 23 and 19 respectively. The third child, based on his summer league performance is bound to get a look from an NBA team for a roster spot. They're good guys, haven't hurt anyone, carry themselves well as professionals.

He obviously did something right.

This one, for examppe

When they deserve it of course I do. They don’t get a pass just because they are black

I see your point

LOL. The kid was right. He didn't need school for anything. Went pro at 16, was drafted #1 overall and is a star in the making. $35M guaranteed in his first contract alone.

Didn’t say he wasn’t right but I did expect him to say it in English

You go out of your way to ridicule blacks players. When's the last time you were overly critical of a white player? Because I've never seen you do that.

The problem is WAY too many hear that and think he is speaking for them. Be humble and admit things worked out for you.
