He was what, 1-13 from 3 last night. He took 4 threes in the final 3 minutes, with the Pelicans laughing as they left him wide open to take the shot, except for that one he came down the court and shot quickly from 2 feet behind the line and bricked it.

He was hilariously terrible last night, and was the main reason the Pelicans won. I think if he didn't play at all, the Lakers would have won that game by 10 easily.

The only other guard I remember shooting nearly as badly was Austin Rivers. And I think he was still hitting about .600 on FTs.

The FT number is what is really concerning. He needs to completely remake his shot to have a chance to be a consistent contributor

The answer to that question can probably be found right next to "how long is westcoastag going to defend lonzo ball?"

Shawn Marion had a better jump shot than Lonzo.

Yea, basically the only way that he can shoot is when he is in motion, typically due to a step back. It doesn't work for mid-range or free throws.

He’s shooting 30% over his last 10gm & 25% from 3

His shooting had turned the corner, they said

And Shawn Bradley had a better 3 pt shot based on the slcrap he was throwing up last night. He needs to be playing the game in Lithuania so he can learn how to play.

He literally just kept chucking up awful 3 point shots in the 4th quarter. He was directly responsible for the loss.

You don't think trading him when his value is THIS high is a viable option?

Do you not think he sucks? He’s a terrible shooter, and instead of driving to the hole, he just hoists up outside shots. At least Rondo and Tony Allen know their roles and can drive and make some midrange.

Rondo even nailed a clutch 3 last night.

To be fair, he threw up that one awful one extremely early in the shot clock. Most of the other shots he took, he would need binoculars to find a defender. The Pels were begging him to shoot. He was still awful, but I don't blame him for taking a bunch of those shots in the 4th.
