I have to be honest, the first I ever heard of this guy was when, out of the blue he was all over ESPN blabbering about how he could beat Michael Jordan one on one, real caricature. Then I learned about his son at UCLA and the upcoming draft but the guy really came off as a clown and a loud mouth. Then when his son got drafted as he predicted, I started paying a little more attention. I learned a couple of things, first being all the hype he was spewing about his son Alonzo I don't think is just hype, I think the kid is legit and I love his character. Second, there's another side to Lavar Ball that I think we get a glimpses at now with the reality show. They guy is simply dedicated to his family!
After reading what happened to his wife with the stroke and everything, something that they keep out of the media for a while. That was a father carrying the burden of being both parents and still carry for his wife during her struggle. Then you see during the show where he dismisses speech and physical therapist for his wife's rehabilitation and takes on the challenge himself.
I don't care what anybody has to say, I'm in this dudes corner!
