great points he strughles with elite speed at point of attack but othereese is a great defender for a rook. Great vision and touch on his passes but needs to improve midrange , Fts and strsught line drives ...he favors a left handed reverse layup...Quote:

Your comparison to Pail doesnt make any sense ...Lonzo not only doesnt over dribble but in fact should dribble more.
So you'd be satisfied with drafting Bowen or Iguodala with the second overall pick? :lolQuote:
Title teams need unselfish guys like Iggy, Odom, Kidd Pippen Bowen who are more focused on the collective than hunting shots or glory.
Lull your self to a fale state or happiness , spurs are on the downfall, Kawhi wants out, poopavich is old AF, lamarcus is garbage... RIPQuote:

We went toe to toe with the Dubs and could have won all 3 games (moral victories count for nothing). We were competitive in several other games whereas we lost due to turnovers, stupid fouls, and a ton of missed freebies (all traits of the NBA's youngest team).
So if we have to grow into contention from within, I'm cool with it because I've seen several encouraging signs. Even the Dubs grew from within...then put themselves in position (cap wise) to make key signings to complement their core. Look at them now: a juggernaut that these farmers hate :lol
They set the blueprint. Maginka would be wise to follow it. Time will tell if they have the pedigree to turn this thing around. We shall see....
I'll bite: who's a better overall prospect in this class than Zo? Fox? Tatum? Who? I'd take Zo overall of them and I'm not even joking.Quote:

Rebounding, steals, deflections that lead to steals, assisting teammates with scoring, etc - Zo does all that in spades to take over games.Quote:

Sidenote: he's shooting 42% from downtown over his last 15 games (which would be 16th in the league if it were for the whole season btw). He shot 66% last night and 100% last game. His shot is still a work in progress, but he is improving...
SMH :lolQuote:

And where the hell is midnightpulp ole hummingbird ass at? Niglets talk shit then abandone ship! :lol
iggy was a high lottery pick too ...Quote:

And even in today's NBA ...I would have no problem drafting him #2 in last year or this year's draft ...and yes I would take him over Lonzo ...
as long as Lavar is stuck in Lithuania, lonzo has a bright future
I see amb lurking:
The farm team doing okay since ASB :)
More importantly, it looks like that fucker finally took a bar of soap to that face. Good for him.
Longo is a bust, having IT will make them win more games, and Lakerfan will say it was Fecalonzo.
