The NBA Turned on LaMelo Ball, He’s Making Them Pay
The NBA gave up on LaMelo Ball way too soon… and now that the Charlotte Hornets finally have a real young core around him, the entire story is starting to change. In this video, I break down why LaMelo was written off by the media, what was actually holding Charlotte back, and why this team could quietly become one of the most dangerous young teams in the NBA.

Don't blame la melo, hornets management really don't like to win, they don't like to trade superstars to play alongside melo.
People never talk about when they talk about LaMelo missing games these past couple years is that the team was tanking so towards the end of this year, they just never decide to put them back in the game because of tanking no one talks about that shit which is mind-boggling to me he could’ve came back and played more games, but it was not playful so they just put them on the shelf next year duh!!!!!
You’re a fool if you think lavar hurt him
His biggest problem is he doesn't know how to drive
We not tolerating Lavar slander 😂👎🏾he knew except what he was doing all his son’s successful
Okay here it is lamelo is no better than treman. They both picked in high school. They both could be really great!
LaMelo that dude🥃
Haters hot
now they just need to bring in a green and iguodala like player and they have potential to be a dynasty
Kon is the perfect backcourt mate for Melo. He can create his own or catch and shoot ,plays defense and has an edge to him. Kon also opens up for Brandon miller to be able to create his own shot. It’s pic your poison and just hope they have a bad night shooting.
I knew the would be good when the won against the bucks and kon kaniple look like klay and larry bird form .
No homo
Nah… 😑
Times are finally changing in charlotte
Great vid except bringing up his pops that’s old news and inconsequential to his current nba situation. I do hope the hornets front office keeps this team intact.
They just need one all Star center
no homo 😂
LaMelo Ball Doesn't want to LEaveee SOOOo
When I see Lamelo, I always think of those drippy face build in 2k haha
After he came back from Lithuania, he was a Demon. Lavar did that. It’s called tough love. Paired him against adults for a year
6:03
FAKE news wtf Lavar encouraged lamelo to Go overseas and there he Shone bright enough to be draft top 3. Lavar is WHY lamelo got where he is. Bad take
1:01
They wrote him off… But Melo didn't right back!!! 😤
Sidebar_ 2019 Prine Bron had. BI, Randell, Ball, and Heart!!! Young, but that's leadership. No way any other top superstar not make the playoffs with that team. STOP!
Lavar Ball told you first fool!
Give me lamelo ball over Luka that’s just me .
I can see the hornets being the next warrior because they have the skill and talent for it. but Lamelo is too reckless and very injury prone to make the playoff
They dirty for treating melo like this blackballed him since he joined the league they gone need him in the future for team USA
Hornets got one big problem, Nobody comes out east if they can't get past Celtics defense, Tatum is back.
This young man is an incredible talent with a very unique style. I thought he would have to leave this team before having a shot at winning. This organization has been poorly run for decades. I am glad it is coming together for them finally.
hornets should acquire steve kerr hahahah
KG couldn't win and didn't get respect either until the wolves brought in real talent to play with him.
They forgetting the main event, miles bridges. Him and melo are the most exciting combo to watch on the court imo.
My girl is becoming your biggest fan. Puts her right to sleep. Keep it up!
I trust in Melo and the Big Baller!
How is sayin some wild shit and correcting it with „ I AINT GAY THO“ anti gay 😂😂😂😂
Kon is the reason why his offense is thriving. No defense.
What in the world are you talking about? That season in Australia raised his stock back up. His fathers league and spire didn’t do a thing
What if the warriors didn’t pass and actually drafted him ?
Awesome video Mike, longtime hornets fan. The last time we made the playoffs I was 10 years old and I’m 20 now
Time for a jared mccain vid after tonight
just shows these mf be yapping about anything and everything.
Shooting % trash just is
They did what
Lamelo the only player that can play like he at the park and it works 🤣
Im not a fan of hornets and melo however I can tell he is talented but his injuries and his team is holding him back.
2:10 whats wrong with what he said? wtf 😂 bro no way
Judging his dad's choices gotta be the dumbest shit you did. Not even finishing this video
overrate that
