Good question. Granted, if the markets responded this well to a lavar ball presidency, he'd be seen as someone that wasn't a complete dumbass who happened to luck into having athletic children to live vicariously through. Oh well. We can't all be as effective as Trump has been.
Why did President Obama care enough to create an NCAA bracket on ESPN? Who gives a ****. This is minor just like Obama doing his bracket
If you care about Mark Cuban's take on this: https://www.cbssports.com/nba/news/...avar-ball-and-donald-trump-are-so-much-alike/
One is fun and games (the NCAA bracket), the other is a President criticizing private citizens because he didn't get a verbal "thank you"
Interesting.. If he could make it work it'd be great but I don't know if it will because the NCAA likes money and is established (and it's LaVar) It'll fail
i'm down for a lavar league. **** the ncaa. coaches getting millions of dollars, wearing rolexes, driving benzes n **** while the kids who are the ones people come to see can't even sell their autograph without a violation.
This is going to fail so hard, he is going to lose a ton of money. 1 of 2 outcomes possible 1. Most kids were playing college ball even when there were no mandatory year rule. So likelihood of him luring '80' legit NBA prospects is very low = fail and since he will only be able to lure a few prospects the remaining competition is going to be low, I doubt the games will be highly technical or well coached. Maybe 5 of the '80' will get drafted. Teams will want players who have proven themselves in a more competitive league. 2. Lets say Lavar does recruit enough to have a 'ok' league. If it begins to hinder the NCAA they will lobby and use all their goons to convince the NBA to get rid of the mandatory year rule anyways, just out of spite. His whole league and business is hedged and kept afloat based on one NBA rule that can be changed whenever the NBA wants. . No mandatory year and his league sinks. Business' that rely on one factor/law/rule that can be changed at anytime are destined to fail.
Lol yep, and I bet it gets done within the next 5 years. They should have never eliminated that route anyways. That whole excuse that it benefitted the growth of the players was such BS when you had some of the greatest players, HOF players, come out through it. Off the top of my head, Tmac, Dwight, Garnett, Kobe, Lebron. The counter was "Well, those guys were the exception..." like there has ever been any certainty drafting players in the top 5 anyways? Some of them bust, some of them don't, how it is and how it always will be.
