LaVar Ball says he would have killed MJ one-on-one, wants $1 billion shoes deal for his sons
LaVar Ball continues to talk too much
LaVar Ball loves to talk. But now he is really talking too much.
The father of Lonzo, LaMelo and LiAngelo spoke with Josh Peter of USA Today.
"Back in my heyday, I would kill Michael Jordan one-on-one," Ball said Monday, per Josh Peter of USA Today. "I would just back (Jordan) in and lift him off the ground and call a foul every time he fouls me when I do a jump hook to the right or the left," Ball said. "He cannot stop me one-on-one. He better make every shot ’cause he can't go around me. He's not fast enough. And he can only make so many shots outside before I make every bucket under the rim."
However, his bravado might lead to more than just fun talk. The father believes his sons' talents could beckon the largest shoe marketing deal in history.
"A billion dollars, it has to be there," Ball said. "That's our number, a billion, straight out of the gate. And you don't even have to give it to me all up front. Give us $100 mil over 10 years."
