:mjlol: He doesn’t even have a fraction of brons hype.


You can’t use Social media as a barometer, it didn’t exist in Lebrons day. In comparison there are kids in high school now with millions of followers with no famous daddy to show for it.

Those other kids haven't proven they can generate money like Lamelo already has and havent been famous as long as him. He has 5M followers which is probably around what Bron would have if social media existed then. He's popular worldwide already to say he doesn't even have a fraction is ridiculous. Maybe "hype" wasnt the right word but he's just as popular

Not sure if he'll be a superstar in the NBA but Lamelo has the persona down pat. Point blank, he's just one of those guys whom people will discuss and will either love or hate. You see it already with some going overboard and declaring him a bonafide mega star before he's played a single minute in the leauge, while others on the opposing side are so mind numbingly resentful towards him that they're literally wishing against all hope -- and reality -- that he won't even be drafted.


One thing for certain is that he's world's more compelling than his socially awkward gump of a brother. I think he's the only Ball brother that'll be remotely worth a damn, but I look forward to seeing if he can successfully ball at the NBA level.

He has 5 million followers because of his father and Brother.

They are going to do everything in their power to execute this offer. In my opinion, this company knows this is a one of kind opportunity. Melo hype is as big as MJ. Pick one.”

Williams declined to comment on what sneaker company made the offer to Ball.

At this point, I can't even tell if they are stans or just trolls. BBB is the sports version of the Lil B phenomenon.

Nah, Lil B was likable and his stans knew it was all a joke. Lavar obnoxious as fukk and his stans actually take this shyt seriously.

I don't think you can say this.

It's hard to compare eras but you have to realize that Bron was the most hyped high school player since Lew Alcindor. He was a household name to even non-basketball fans by his senior year in high school and was on the cover of multiple major national publications.

LaMelo is probably the most famous high school player in the social media era thus far (although Bronny probably will surpass him if he is any good), but he doesn't have crossover appeal like Bron did from damn near his junior season.

I need more proof to believe this.

That being said he should definitely be the first overall pick and playing right here in NYC.
