but then the country elected trump president so i'm not really surprised that his style is appreciated
His attitude is clownish at times, but imo his sons are better coached than anyone else in the world at their respective ages. Its insane how smart Lonzo plays- he walked onto college campus with a NBA-level understanding of running an offense.
I think he talks so much because he truly knows how good his sons are(and the rest of the world doesn't quite know it yet). People only thought Lonzo was the ~15th best player coming into this year, and now hes probably going to go #1 overall. People are now laughing at some of Lavar's comments, but I don't think they are all THAT far fetched. Lonzo has legit equity to be in the Jordan/Lebron/Shaq tier of players.

What makes him top 15?
Paul George has not performed as a top 15 player would this regular season.
Paul George is absolutely a top 15 player going forward for the rest of the regular season + playoffs this year, and hes probably top 10.
Both of these statements are true imo. Playoff Paul George is a real thing. He went toe-to-toe with Lebron in the 2013-14 playoffs, missed a year due to injury, and then put up a 27+ PER in the playoffs last year. Also he would be better served as the #2 option offensively(I realize this isn't ideal from a "top 15 player", but the point being that if he were allowed to be in this role then his play/stats would better reflect how good he really is).
