I thought Lonnie wasnt that good on defense. He was one of the reasons that one wing he was jawing with was scoring points like crazy. The guy at one point was damn near getting anything he wanted offensively. Which I think is what started the playful banter between the 2. I agree it was disheartening to see Lonnie pass up so many open 3 pointers and him kinda not looking much for teammates. Lonnie has so much talent but definitely has some things he needs to work on.
Luka is learning that he can't live on his athleticism alone in the NBA. Dude has got to get stronger to help him unlock a lot of his potential. Hopefully him getting a bit bigger and stronger doesn't hurt his athletic ability too much. Another thing he should work on is a pull up jumper and his overall handle. I've noticed that if he can't beat his defender off his 1st step quickness (which he does alot) then he doesn't really know what to do when stopped or will be caught in a bad situation. If he could get the pull up jumper in his game or get more advanced with his handle I think that would help his offense immensely. Defensively and rebounding the same issue as far as getting stronger would help alot
