Anyone still want to talk shite about Lonzo?

He’s putting it together now, and he’s improved his 3 pt shot nicely. He should be part of our future plan. He’ll be a great 3rd man to Zion and BI

Edit: no coincidence he’s putting it together once Jrue is out though. They don’t belong together

Only issue of late is the turnovers

It would be nice for him to get his FT% up and get to the line more; however, he has played well.

His ast/to rate is not bad.

TOs will go down as he gets better with the offense and gets more experience with it and the other players

Still at 2.25 AST/TO this year

I talked a little shite because I didn’t know what his skill set was. Now I understand his game. His court awareness and vision is really good. He’s obviously only going to get better with more experience. I’m excited for him and it’s nice that his dad stepped aside.

The FT% is kinda retarded I agree. Needs to spend more time drilling FTs after practice. Hit 20 in a row and you can leave and go get a beer

Jj redick says players are more worried about posting On Instagram and looking good

JJ needs to be a culture leader like we’re paying him to instead of whining on his own podcast

You and me both Champ. He’s been playing really well lately.

Zo is a great fit for the offense that Gentry wants to run


Speaking of Zo, does Lavar go to the games? He has been very quiet in the national media since Zo got traded

Also look at how Favors and Hayes have feasted off of his passing. Now we are going to add Zion to that rotation. It is going to be exciting.

No court vision or defense in the world saves those splits. He's got the looks but I'm still on the fence and definitely not giving him the max he's going to want.

He usually sits behind the announcer table but idk if he still goes. I saw him at one but forgot to look for him after that.

Max???

The team that offers that is delusional. And I really like Zo.

If you look at his splits coming off the losing streak he is 42% from the field and 39% from 3 pt range. He is shooting over half of his shots from 3 pt range. So it would be nice to see him improve more, but that is not bad considering he is playing good defense and distributing the ball well. Needs to be more aggressive towards the basket though.

This is the last 15 games where the team is 10-5.

Always liked him. Huge upside. Questioned his shot and he's improving it. Love double digit assists!

Lonzo has talent. Jrue is more accomplished, fwiw.

Given Lonzo's track record. Yes. Just not of late. The most impressive thing to me has been his health and availability. Injuries derailed him in the past when he was looking great.
