2-11 last night...stellar performance.
I thought Lonzo was a bust guys?
No. He's killing it now. Busts don't put up the kind of numbers he's been putting up lately.
These posts have aged terribly, which shouldn’t have surprised anyone who actually watches Laker games.Lonzo is shooting 41% from 3 since December 1st in the games he has played.
7 of 33 from 2 his last 3 games.
3 of 21 from 3.
How can a person be so inconsistent?
He's not 6'8. You're saying he's as tall as Lebron. And he's a legitimately good rebounder so your take is wrong. Plus, given the Lakers fast paced offense, it is a good thing that he rebounds in order to initiate the offense quickly.Because he has no control of his shot whatsoever. He has no idea where the ball is exactly going and at what trajectory, so its no surprise hes hitting backboards when shooting from a side.
He just tosses it from his shoulder, and sometimes it goes in, sometimes it doesnt. Its not like with normal form where you can feel if youre gonna go short, or to the side, and you can adjust. He cant do that with his shooting form. He just throws it and if it goes it goes.
I dont know man i really dont see anything special about Lonzo... I see a clumsy kid, tripping over his own feet, dribbling ball above his head, running into people, gets blocked by a rim every game (?!?!), airballs layups, horror shooting, body language kinda funny, body type funny too... i dont know man...
Obviously being a 6"8 tall pointguard is gonna get you defensive rebounds by itself, specially when you snatch them from your teammates, so i dont think hes this great rebounder everyone is calling him... He can pass though, has a solid vision, still i consider Ricky Rubio to be a way more talented passer...
Counting stats is also one thing, so he can fill it up with those defensive rebounds, but just from the good old eye test, i see a clumsy kid more than anything...
If you dont watch laker games you wouldnt get why a lot of fans are excited about this teams future. His offense needs some work but his defense is already taking our team to the next step. Hes a baller stop letting your hate for his dad cloud your judgement
I believe the Lakers record with against without him is fairly similar.The Lakers don't win without him. They win with him.
This isn't rocket surgery. He is good. He does the little things that make everyone better. He does the things that make the team better. He isn't a stat guy, he is a team guy. He is the anti Westbrook.
His playmaking is very poor and most of his assists come because he pushes the ball around the perimeter or dumps it into the post where guys like Randle, Lopez, Ingram or Kuzma then create or shoot a semi-contested jumper that goes in.
I think that if he is given time to develop (which Lakers are probably more than willing to do), he may live up to some, if not most of the hype.
However, it’s just disgusting that the actual sport of basketball is being oveshadowed by the media circus around it.
I realize it’s not anything new, but it really did seem to hit a new low last year with Lonzo’s idiot father (and all the media outlets who gobbled his shit up and regurgitated it fir clicks/likes).
With Isaiah Thomas there now, do they need Lonzo?
They had to send his ass overseas to quiet him the fuck down. I havent heard much outta him since he took his 2 can sons to play ball in siberia
w/ Lonzo: 22-26 (45.8%)I believe the Lakers record with against without him is fairly similar.
