OT: LiAngelo Ball and 2 UCLA Teammates Arrested in China

Accused of shoplifting. It goes without saying you don't want to be arrested anywhere, but especially a place where you don't know the language or police procedures.
November 7th, 2017 at 4:53 PM ^
Should've had Troy McClure give him the skinny on shoplifting.
November 7th, 2017 at 8:54 PM ^

Dad buys you a Lambo and you are stealing Louis Vuiton? Come on man.
November 7th, 2017 at 5:24 PM ^
loius viton
November 7th, 2017 at 5:41 PM ^
Lu Ivi Tan
November 7th, 2017 at 7:20 PM ^
I think there's probably a correlation between free stuff from Daddy and wanting more free stuff.
November 7th, 2017 at 8:46 PM ^
Instead leaving his son to scrap for it on the streets. A lambo without a murse, wtf was he thinking? One more reason to hate the Ball family.
November 7th, 2017 at 4:55 PM ^
you gotta shoplift.
November 7th, 2017 at 5:42 PM ^
I'm sure he wasn't shoplifting, probably just wanted to trade some LV stuff for some big baller shoes.
November 7th, 2017 at 4:55 PM ^
I love the first comment in the comments section:
“My boy already leading the league in steals” - Lavar Ball

I may have been arrested smuggling drugs out of Turkey... wasn't so bad
November 7th, 2017 at 5:01 PM ^
So then you have been in a Turkish prison?
November 7th, 2017 at 10:54 PM ^
It can be Leslie Nielsen if I want it to be...
November 7th, 2017 at 5:23 PM ^
Out of Turkey or in a turkey?
November 7th, 2017 at 10:55 PM ^
both?
November 7th, 2017 at 5:52 PM ^
Saw that movie on cable in the early 80’s when I was a kid. Knew I wasn’t supposed to watch it. Watched it anyway. I had a lot of unanswered questions as a result but couldn’t ask my mom to explain anything because I wasn’t supposed to watch it in the first place. So my little imagination was left to its own devices. Based on what I COULD figure out, I swore I’d never go to Turkey or get mixed up in hashish (whatever that was). The rest was...confusing. {Takes swig of Jack straight from the bottle...stares off into the distance}

On Channel Z?
November 8th, 2017 at 7:07 AM ^
you still need answered?
November 8th, 2017 at 1:03 PM ^
What was the bad guard going to do to Billy at the end, and why? Is it THAT easy to impale your brain stem on a coat hook?
November 8th, 2017 at 2:10 PM ^
have a sleep over date with Billy because he heard Billy was a good FG kicker and wanted to recruit him for the prison team.
Yes, it is that easy to impale your brain stem on a coat hook - I actually did it to myself this morning... but am fine now, so no worries.
Aren't you glad you finally got answers to these questions?
Any others?
November 7th, 2017 at 4:57 PM ^
Stupid is as stupid does.
November 7th, 2017 at 4:59 PM ^
Damn. Really like Lavar Ball, and I know he would never teach his kids this. Lavar is the type of father I wish I had growing up.
November 7th, 2017 at 5:26 PM ^
Your downvotes are immune to sarcasm ;-)
November 7th, 2017 at 6:25 PM ^
When you're a UM fan and you seriously post that you root for MSU in part, because "of family you like", people are not going to find the Lavar Ball comment as sarcasm.
I will say though that while I would've hated having Lavar Ball the showboat as my father and husband to my mother, I wouldn't mind having Lavar Ball the promoter hyping me up to colleges.
November 7th, 2017 at 7:04 PM ^
I agree. There are times where I get negbang'd and it carries over into other threads. No fault to the other users.
November 7th, 2017 at 4:59 PM ^
China is negotiating the rights to all 3 players.
November 7th, 2017 at 5:03 PM ^
We just need to bribe a few officials, shut down a power grid., get a team of seals.
Expensive decision kid.
November 7th, 2017 at 5:08 PM ^
"Angering Chairman Mao" on your UCLA Bingo card, congrats!
November 7th, 2017 at 5:21 PM ^
I guess BBB isnt doing too hot
November 7th, 2017 at 5:25 PM ^
by the security cameras, which are everywhere in upscale shopping center in China.
November 7th, 2017 at 6:30 PM ^
Upscale shopping center from that sentence and it would still be accurate.
November 7th, 2017 at 7:18 PM ^
"in in China"
November 7th, 2017 at 5:26 PM ^
They might not like
the next "dribble" they experience
November 7th, 2017 at 5:58 PM ^
Even know who the hell this was. People are
Dumb.
November 7th, 2017 at 6:09 PM ^
I could have sworn when he walked through the airport turnstile sideways he was going to Bangkok
November 7th, 2017 at 6:16 PM ^
I would never hear about the Balls again. They are vying for worst family ever with the Kardashians.
November 7th, 2017 at 6:23 PM ^
I wonder if the three players will be back in time for the December 9th matchup? You have to think that they will need to get through the legal process in China (could take months), and then get through any suspension. Personally I hope they are back so we can beat them at full strength.
On a side note it is ironic that any American is being charged with stealing in China. That country has probably stolen more intellectual property from us than all other countries combined.
November 7th, 2017 at 7:28 PM ^
The legal process in China can be conveniently forgotten with a sufficient bribe. I'm sure LiAngelo will be back home as soon as his dad can cut the check.
Those other two guys, though, are FUCKED.
November 7th, 2017 at 6:33 PM ^
This is not a person who deserves to be admitted to college, any college. There is dumb, dumber, and then there is this.
November 7th, 2017 at 7:18 PM ^
You have a strange perception on who attends college.
November 7th, 2017 at 6:40 PM ^
It's be Kinda hard to play basketball without hands.
November 7th, 2017 at 7:54 PM ^
Actually it depends if it was for necessity. Mayb he was hungry and stole food. lol
November 7th, 2017 at 6:56 PM ^
I wouldn't be surprised if it were a huge misunderstanding. Let's see how it plays out.
November 7th, 2017 at 7:06 PM ^
could impact their draft positions, character issues and all...
November 7th, 2017 at 9:06 PM ^
For the NBA? Isn't this the same league that suspended Sprewell a few games for choking his coach until others forcefully pried him off, and then handed him another multi-million dollar contract?
November 8th, 2017 at 4:02 PM ^
That gave a guy 12 months off after pounding an (fairly) innocent man on national tv.
Then a few years later they pulled a mans franchise for saying bad words in a private conversation. And im not sticking up for the racist owner but good god.
November 7th, 2017 at 7:06 PM ^
I'm guessing this is probably not the best way to find out the answer to "I wonder what the hell happens if you get caught stealing in China?".
November 7th, 2017 at 7:19 PM ^
Future millionaire!!!
