he is not a bust
:lol

[BatManu20]

All bias and jokes aside, I think Lonzo be fine. Obviously he was overrated coming into the league, due in large part to his semi-retarded father and his loud mouth. He wasn't "ready" for this level, hence his struggles. But he's obviously going to improve. Kid just turned 20 years old two weeks ago... his jump shot is awful to watch but it will improve with time. I expect his %'s to increase steadily throughout the season, and in a couple years he'll be a pretty solid player imo. In 5-6 years he'll be something. He still annoys me, but he has court-vision, passing, and a feel for the game you can't teach tbh.

[Killakobe81]

meh.. if you thought you bought a ferrari, and paid the expected amount, is it not a bust if you got a mediocre mercedes?

mehh ...Raven you are quick to pronounce bust except for your loverboy Oakafor ...even Randle who you cried bust for early on, has been better ...And all jokes aside ...not even oak is certified a bust yet...though he is trending as such...
And ball is no ferrarri more tesla tbh

i think scoring wise he has talent with some vision and decent size but tbh bad knees on a 21 year old makes me nervous which is why im not sold 100% on Dsjr

i like a few things from him. like you said, great length and size for a pg. his vision is elite defense is actually surprising and he seems to have a high IQ. i just don't know if he has the attitude to reach that superstar level. he's too timid. has no fire. he seems content passing the ball and watching everyone play. of course, watch him make me look like an idiot a year or two from now but i just don't see it. young kobe was a dawg at age 19.


in this era, a high scoring guard is a necessity for any teams hoping to reach that next level. i don't think Jason kidd can lead a team to b2b finals in this era, and that's supposedly is ball's ceiling.

Shooting is the easiest thing to improve IMO. Lonzo will never be a 1st or 2nd option - not needed - his job is to facilitate and for a rookie, he's doing it well. Now I admit, he will have to be improve as a shooter. But for now, he's doing everything else well including playing D. I'll live with that until his shot develops. He'll be fine. :tu

See that's where we disagree. In theory, Lonzo would be a 4th option at best. I believe we have viable 3rd (Kuz) and 4th (Ingram) on our team right now. Enter 2018 pipe dream: we have to make minor moves to afford 2 max players (who will be 1st and 2nd options) this off-season.

For example, my two players I target are Boogie and PG13 this summer if I'm Magic:

Lonzo (pass 1st, 5th option)
PG13 (2nd option)
Ingram (4th option)
Kuz (3rd option)
Boogie (1st option)

^ This is a playoff team IMO. I think free agents will love to play with Lonzo too.

I started to realize this shit when looking at youtube highlights of individual players. I was like, why is this shit on here if the guy didn't do shit on this play? And then it hit me "oooh, that's an NBA 'assist'".

Lol niccas acting like stats arent juked all the time gtfo with dat bullshit ...
Even in baseball where stats are "sacred", you see bullshit hit/error rulings by official scorekeepers all the time ...

LOL. Best case scenario ain't even a good one for y'all.

[Killakobe81]

LOL. Best case scenario ain't even a good one for y'all.

So far he is having a positive affect. Lakers are,ahead of last year's win pace even if at times his shooting costs us. We had 36 assists the other night never would happen if Russell and Lou or Kobe) were getting heavy burn for us still ...
I dont need him to be a star right now as long as he is a strong starter on a playoff threatening team by April that is fine. heck, if kuzma and ingram develop in to high level starters by seasons end and clarkson and randle are 6moty candidates that is a good year for a young team ...
I dont care if Ball is no saviour because hopefully we wont need saving in a year or two ...i also dont care if Kuzma is the better rookie he should be he played two more years of pac12 ball.
The team is what matters...

[Killakobe81]

oh and fuck his pops i have defended him but the,Trump stuff and they dont know how to coach my son stuff is to much.

You have to be a little concerned? I mean, his play has been pretty bad, regardless if he were the 2nd pick or a 2nd round pick. The fact that he was the 2nd pick just makes it that much worse. I understand he's still young and it's a really small sample size but his demeanor is really bad for the NBA. He seems content to be really passive which is not a good sign. Magic made a comment to Lonzo asking him to keep a couple of Magic records with the Lakers in tact after he drafted him. At this point I think it would be a surprise if he's starting for an NBA team after his rookie contract is up.

He's not even the best rookie on the team. Also, the addition of Robin Lopez and the improvement of Clarkson and Ingram has helped your win total. Lonzo so far has been a huge bust, the only reason he's getting any burn is because of his draft position.

Dude, his shooting percentages reek, but that's it. For a rookie PG, he's an elite rebounder an above average passer, and a decent defender. Shooting is the easiest thing to overcome.

bad timing he helped close out last nights game ...i have concerns but no panic here ...Randle finally figuring things out it takes longer for some guys. Even if ball shoots well he is no Simmons type star and i knew that going in ...if he improves to average shooting he will help whomever our next true franchise star is that guy is not on this roster a lot of potential #2s and solid starters no franchise altering caliber talent.

Jrue holiday can shoot. He's shooting bad this season but overall he's been a good shooter. Don't know why you lumped him in with those other bricklayers.

It is a good point though that guys can work hard and go through their whole NBA careers without ever being able to shoot. Roberson in OKC is another good example. It's a skill many can never develop no matter what they do. Some guys way late in their career develop some skill like I saw that mbah moute has been shooting decent from three last year plus the other day after sucking for like 10 seasons at it.

Media will cover this Ball crew through this, to bankruptcy and eventually Lavar will be on some MTV house party reality TV or something stupid like that, with Danny Bonaduce.

Each sibling will have their chance to succeed and we'll see old sticky fingers get arrested for something bigger, the younger one get accused of rape or something. Then some ESPN writer will write about how the media drove the Balls to failure, how Lavar is a great dad and how spotlight and pressure from bankrolled entities created unreal expectations for middle class Lavar and his sons.

The weirdest part is why the fuck does he bring it to the lleft side of his head if hes right handed? That's why he has that gay ass sideways flick in his shot. I tried just the motion and it feels so unnatural. I have no idea how he made it this far with that broke ass shit. They should make him choose--centered or to the right just get the fuck away from that left side.

I mean if you think about it he not only has to aim for distance to the basket but he also has to hit the correct angle on his flick. No wonder he's on the verge of a 30/20/40 season. :lol

Walton got exposed on this game. Horrible playcalling down the stretch, calling a TO when the Lakers had advantage on the break on the last possession of the game, and worst of all: not telling Ingram and Randle to switch sides so that Ingram isn't the one having to box-out Draymond Green on a missed free throw.

Walton is definitely terrible, but those guys should know who should be boxing out who. The Lakers are just a low IQ team from top to bottom.

The push shot at least adds strength though. I used to shoot like that when I was really young. Not sure how bringing it all the way to his left side (as a righty) and incorporating a flick helps in any way.

[lebomb]

I used to push my shot when I was young, I changed it in HS to follow through and let it roll off my finger tips. More backspin = a better chance your shot goes in. If its off a bit, the backspin sometimes helps that bastard roll back in. A push shot, NO, a flick?........HELL NO. :claw

Let’s just pretend nash and Stockton didn’t even get to start on a regular basis until their 5th and 4th season respectively.
Let’s just pretend nash and Stockton couldn’t shoot.
Let’s just look at ppg despite the fact that neither nash nor Stockton were never known as scorers.
Let’s start comparing one single stat to make a point, and say ball will be better than shaq because he got a better 3 pt percentage as rookies.
