So long Lonnie
Doesn’t change the logic. 2yrs/8m player option year 2 is my idea of his market value.
So long Lonnie
entire blazers roster...
i can't say what's up with lonnie but with primo on the horizon, i just can't see lonnie getting another deal here. he just can't seem to stay focused and negates any of his positives with too many negatives. i want him to make it but i just don't see it happening at this point.
Agreed. I really liked the way he was playing there for a couple of weeks pre-Covid and even a couple of games after he returned. He had sort of become this unconscious gun slinger (a poor man’s Jordan Clarkson) who would check into games and gets shots up, infuse it with energy etc.
Forbes was then traded and I thought the Spurs feel comfortable here letting Walker for seemingly the first time, have a dedicated, unflinching role in this team’s construction.
Now that’s looking like more to do with giving Vassell extra opportunities and bringing Primo over when the G league season completes.
I wish Lonnie well. I’m sure he can put up numbers in a headless chook system akin to what they’re doing in Houston but here he’s just too damn inconsistent and at times passive to warrant those looks here.
He's another guy who will be better once he gets out from under Pop.
Really hope they don't extend him or give him a QO - that would be another financial mistake.
Lonnie averages 22 minutes a game this season. Primo should be ready for that kind of work load next season.
The skills are there and it’s just a matter of slowing down the game for him. He could be better in another team but I sure hope it could be with the Spurs
Primo wont play 22 minutes a game until he's old enough to drink. That's if popovich is still coaching.
Prepare the fainting couch. Vassell is playing 25 minutes in his second year. Dejounte played 21.5 his second year, and he didn’t even have a jump shot. Keldon played 28.5 in his second year. They were all young draftees. They all played in their second year, rotation minutes. It’s almost like you’re not paying attention.
This kid is shooting 38% from the floor and 29% from three on the season
Last 10 32% from the floor and 20% from three. The only thing he has going for him is that he turned 23 years old a month ago. it's all a mind game with this kid unfortunately, he's playing like he's at rock bottom right now. Change of scenery and a fresh start is the only thing I can see that can potentially save his career.
11 minutes tonight, looks like he is on his way out of the rotation? unless it was injury related but I haven't heard anything.
Spurs knew what they were doing by not extending lw4
Bye bye Lonnie
He gone.
Primo’s is eating his lunch
Primo is about to take all of his minutes. Still can't understand how he got worse in his 4th year. His jumpshot is basically what it was in college again
Lonnie might not have the all star ceiling we had hoped but I still want to keep him. He adds a different style when you play through him and can still be a good scorer off the bench. That's not a bad thing either, you need guys like that.
Unless its health related Joshua is ahead of him in the rotation.
If on the team once trade deadline finishes then he has to make the most of his opportunity even if limited now playing behind Josh and Devin.
His defense has been much better this season, his ofense has become too inconsistent .
If a one year deal allowed give him that. He's starting to turn corner. Another off season n he may put it all together
Was not there mention of a sore knee.
But he sure did not offer anything vs Cavs
Turn the corner? His jump shot is ing trash. Up until a month ago, I would have entertained keeping him on a Forbes like deal, but he’d just be in Primo’s way.
I told you that guy was hot garbage his rookie season. And you thought he was better than Derozan.������
Pop ruined him in that clippers game where he took Lonnie out cause he wasn't guarding Kawhi the way Pop wanted him to. He undressed Lonnie in the post game. Lonnie hasn't been the same since. Wouldn't surprise me to watch him go somewhere else and have a Jordan Clarkson Utah type career cause he most definitely has a ton of talent and athleticism. Pop only knows how to reach a certain type of player and Lonnie doesn't fit that psychological mold.
Pop didn’t break him. He just didn’t fix him.
