During halftime "they were energized by a fiery speech from the team’s highest paid player and heeded LaMelo Ball’s words in powering past Washington…He turned it up and everybody else turned up. We go as the head of the snake go. So, if he’s leading like that, with that type of passion, people are going to listen to him.”

Well ill be damned. LaMelo has matured so much and hes just 24.
Him being the vocal leader will be huge for our success because if hes saying it then the others have no choice but to do the same
Locked in Melo is dangerous. He’s playing D, leading the team with effort. He’s so fun to watch.
LaMelo is one of the best players in the world. He receives way too much hate.
I saw melo crashing the board and diving for loose balls and it almost made me shed a tear
I read Miles said LaMelo came to him at halftime and said “You’re playing like a fucking bum, you’re better than this” and I was like goddammit we done fucked around and unlocked Full Metal LaMelo
I’m all in on the fiery halftime speech version of Lamelo.
Oh i can hear Eric Collins in the background “Here comes Lamelo with his hair on fire”. Show ’em Melo. You’re way better than Hali.
LaMelo Ball getting on his teammates in the locker room and then leading us to a damn near 90 point 2nd half is unironically so fucking sick
THIS TEAM IS GOING PLACES AND LAMELO BALL IS TAKING THEM THERE
I love Melo
We got our coach fellas

Sound like a winning player to me but maybe I’m delirious and confused. Maybe I’m dehydrated.
r/nba is 🗑
Great to hear. Having a more mature locker room is going to help Lamelo a lot this season too.
I liked his comments in the postgame interview. He said the stat he cared about most with his triple double was “the win”. We got our leader.
