    Just seems possessive and jealous from watching the show. Maybe it's all scripted but I'd want my partner to be more mature.

    If my baby’s father’s first thought after hearing I was pregnant was to tweet to millions of people on social media

    “trapped”

    There would probably be very short conversations after that along with cha-ching attorney paperwork providing for the kid. Life is too short to be treated like that. Bad form. Reflects on his level of maturity for sure. Hope they make it work somehow.

    I watched season 1, and she did come across to me as a bit insecure and jealous. Knowing your guy is now desired across the world as an athlete and public figure would challenge any woman, and knowing he will face daily temptations when you aren’t around.

    That was filmed as he was leaving college for the NBA, so his world was about to change big time.

    Some women will go to crazy levels to secure their future, and may act crazy in the process. Either way, for “trapped” to cross his mind, it’s obvious he wasn’t 100% convinced she was “the one” (Yet)

    Lonzo's going to find out that his first four years of #2 salary taxed in CA isn't going to go as far as he originally thought with buying the expensive big new house for the family, the $200,000+ gift car for his folks and being locked in with expensive child and child's mother support for the next 18 or more years. Let's hope he doesn't go the Dwight Howard route.

    I wouldn't ever judge a person based on a reality show... it's a show.

    Glad we got rid of that immature player. No more of that.

    Its immature to sleep with your HS girlfriend of many years? Now if he becomes a deadbeat, I'd agree with you.

    Plus, season 2 of Ball in the Family clearly needed a new character.

    Yeah having sex with your girlfriend is incredibly immature. The kid should be traded immediately.

    I'm not the one cheering the trading of a perceived immature player. I also wasn't saying that part was the immature one. Tweeting "trapped lol" probably wasn't the greatest sign of a mature mind.

    Oh I think you made your point fine. I'm sure that tweet is the most irresponsible thing I've ever heard of. Let's trade him for Russell, right?

    Man I miss the pre-Twitter days. You’d never hear this sort of trash gossip about Magic, MJ, or even Kobe. Hell, I didn’t even know about Dwight’s..situation until a few years ago. Who f****** cares about our players’ girlfriends and children, just perform on the court. The Lakers aren’t a reality show, all that other stuff is meaningless to me. Maybe in the future check for puncture marks in the condom wrappers though, or don’t take someone’s word who says they’re on birth control, if you don’t wanna end up trapped.

    Apparently not because you keep assuming I want to get rid of perceived immature players. That's the FO. I couldn't care less about their off the court lives. Yet Russell exposes one unfaithful player and he's persona non grata in the organization.

    I’m thinking it was more than that. I’m still hoping one day @D-Fish Man discloses what he heard behind the scenes.

    I don't know why @D-Fish Man is so loyal in protecting his source. He was talking **** about @D-Fish Man the other day my source told me.

    Yeah that's all he did. Otherwise he was a model employee and professional. Glad I found another Russell fan.

    It’s not like Zo’s new situation can’t work out, it happens all the time. Its good to be a millionaire dollar ball player in this situation than a Greeter at Walmart. And JR seems to be settled in with his new wife and kid, so that’s a situation Zo could look to for support.

    That being said, with all the hard work to set up such a sweet career start, you wish these young folks would give themselves time to find themselves first before being responsible for someone else’s life. But life happens.
