It’s not your assessment, it’s your lack of foresight

So you can see the future and i cannot. gotcha.
I don't have a lack of foresight, you just don't agree with it, and at no point have you given any reasoning into your foresight other than "well he's 23, so he can get better"
You act like i hate Lonzo Ball and that it pains me to admit he plays well, and that is simply not true.
Here's some of those hot takes I had
before the season started:
quote:
if he can do what he did last year (bubble not included) and become a legit defender, he can get $16-20M/yr. If he does what he did last year, he's in the $13-15M/yr range. There is no way anyone is giving him $25M/yr.
when he was playing terrible and everyone wanted to trade him:
quote:
quote:
Lonzo and a 2nd for Aminu is the deal I do. Makes sense for both sides post Fultz injury
I know we all like to hate Lonzo, but he's worth more than that.
but yeah, i'm bias against him and think he's a terrible basketball player that we should trade for nothing or only offer MLE money too. Lonzo has some serious low lows, and yeah many of us get over emotional about them, but he's shown enough the last 2 years to prove that he is a legit 3 point threat and a good defender, and that's worth a 4/$77M deal.
I'm not ok giving him $20-25M/yr. He's not worth that.
I really don't like the $16-19M/yr range either, but i can agree that he's likely worth that. Keeping Lonzo means developing draft picks would become very important to our success while we wait for this supposed big trade down the line. Kira at PG, NAW as a 6th man scorer, and we need a stretch 4.
