Lakers: Lol Longo Bell

[StrengthAndHonor]

Post editing is pretty weak son. You made a bad call, you own up to it, tbh.

I’m pretty consistent, trolling aside, he’s not ready yet but there’s little evidence to suggest he will not be an impact player. His offense will come along. Come on guys, the kid just turned 20. He has a target in his back with an enormous amount of pressure to revive the Lakers of all places, since day one.

Best thing that happened to him was LiAngelo ing up. Hopefully this will shut Lavar up.

[raybies]

kinda have some sympathy for him. He hasn't really hyped himself up but everyone around him has hyped him up from my perspective. He's got a calm demeanor and pretty poised. Just let his game do the talking thus far and is suffering from sins of the father tbh. Anyways he's probably had the most pressure as a rookie since Lebron which is unfair for someone with his skill set(not a scorer, pass first guard).

Keep shooting kid.

None of that has anything to do with the fact that you edited a post that said that Lonzo was going to score 20, tbh.

I really have no clue. First time I watched him, I was unimpressed. I would guess scouts probably liked his size, length, and court vision. He also had a good 3 point shooting percentage in college, but it's obviously from a closer line and against players who will be accountants and lawyers in a couple of years. Kawhi's evolution has made me believe anything is possible. As we know, Kawhi was a very rough prospect with just average NBA athleticism per his position without a clue how to shoot, but he learned how to maximize his one advantage he had over other players: length. Lonzo has length over pretty much every PG, so it's possible he can turn that into an advantage on both ends. Unsure how he'll do it offensively other than becoming a post-up guard, which is an hetical to today's style.

he doesn't. unless you mean height, which is not very relevant.. his wingspan is solid but the one with length is fultz

[Raven]

And he’ll get there. His shooting woes is all mental. He’s even missing his freebies and wide open layups. Bump this next year and I’ll accept your apologies, sir.

how is it mental when his form is awful at best..

[Quadzilla99]

Goddamn he sucks

[Splits]

After his stellar 3/12 and 1/7 from deep.... how low can he go?
FG%: .292

3P%: .220

[Chucho]

Wow, can't believe people trying to sugarcoat this turd. I could see if he's hitting a respectable % from the line, but he's got big-man inep ude from the line. Unacceptable. There really isn't any light at the end of the tunnel based on what he's shown thus far. He's just flat out awful.

How are you feeling about your "guarantee" RoY for this bust?

His shooting woes are not all mental. His mechanics are terrible. They have to be completely rebuilt if he has any chance of even being a passable shooter at this level.

He's an impact player... it's just that his impact is negative.

Come on guys, the kid just turned 20.

That's not a good excuse for how awful Lonzo is. Jayson Tatum is 19 and way better than him already. De'Aaron Fox is 19 and way better than him already. Lauri Markkanen is 20 and way better than him already. And that's not even getting into Ben Simmons, who's only a year older than Lonzo but is already so far ahead of him, it's not even funny.

He has a target in his back with an enormous amount of pressure to revive the Lakers of all places, since day one.

He and his dad forced their way to the Lakers on draft day just like Kobe did. This is what they wanted. If Lonzo can't handle the pressure, then he only has himself and his loudmouth father to blame.

[benefactor]

The "target on his back" is much more about his dad not being able to shut the up than it is about the pressure that comes with reviving the Lakers tbh

It's both but still to early to panic ...

Keep lying to yourself. When you're pushing historic inep ude, you should be more concerned than not. This is WAYYYYYYYY below expectations. He is shooting at just an inexcusable clip and the best thing that can be said about him is "he sucks".

[lebomb]

Barkley was on point...........he has an awful shot. Takes him to long to get a shot off, unlike Curry who has a quick release. He dribbles, lifts and moves the ball from right to left across his face over his head and then lets it go. Very awkward. I kinda feel sorry for Lonzo. If he had a decent shot he would be a great player. I dont know with that crazy shot though.

I dislike Lavar and the Lakers but I feel bad for Lonzo, he seems like a good kid. His father destroyed him

good point, will make sure to include FT% going forward...

His father is the reason he's sucking this bad??

[Jules_Winnfield]

No. Lavar is the reason that Lonzo was picked so high and by the Lakers, put pressure on him and made other people hate him.

MICHAEL KILLED HIS DAD, LONZO GOT KILLED BY HIS DAD!

[FkLA]

I don't buy this crap that Lonz0 is some humble kid just bc he's not as loud as his dumbass dad. All of them played like s on the court, jacking up shots like crazy and not caring about defense or getting teammates involved. Then theres the eyebrows, fancy cars, etc. That screams en led, y teen to me, tbh.
