Trading Lonzo is likely a tanking move unless it's part of a bigger trade like for Beal.

I mean if we are all starting to be honest with ourselves, trading Jrue was the first obvious signal that Griff does not see this as truly a win-now team yet. Despite whatever PR he is gonna put on it.

I think Lonzo is gonna need to still prove a lot more before the winds really do change directions. At least I hope.

As we saw with the Warriors, even dreadful players can go off or have streaks. Lonzo isn’t Oubre bad, but what Zo needs is consistency and a reigned in, smarter style of play on the offense. He’s shown it in the last few games, but we’ve seen throughout his career an inability to maintain it consistently.
