LaVar Ball, a man never shy to speak his mind in front of a camera or microphone, recently went off on Philadelphia 76ers youngsters Joel Embiid and Ben Simmons after they had their fair share of jabs concerning Markelle Fultz as the No. 1 overall draft pick.
Ball had no reservations when dissing these two young ballers hard.
“When you don’t win and don’t even make the playoffs, and don’t even stay on the court long enough, that’s the best thing you can do is Tweet, make some stuff. Ain’t nobody else doing that, because they’re working on their game in the gym,” Ball told Rob Ellis and Geoff Mosher on the 97.5 Fanatic podcast. “These guys ain’t played a game, always hurt, and at the bottom of the totem pole. So guess what, get your asses off the goddamn Tweeter, and get in the gym.”
Although the Sixers aren't necessarily at the very bottom of the Eastern Conference, they were certainly a ways away from playoff contention last year, much like the Los Angeles Lakers. With the latest acquisition of Fultz, Embiid and Simmons are confident they can turn their franchise around for the 2017-18 campaign.
LaVar Ball simply can't accept that his son Lonzo Ball will have pretty stiff competition in the running for Rookie of the Year.
