At what age will it be ok to say that he sucks? I need to know so that when we get to that point it’ll be ok for me to say it.

At some point in the future after his 20 year old rookie season.


Glad I could help.

I'm so confused.

Do you think he'll ever have trade value or nah?

That isn’t a good enough number. I need to know if it’s ok to say he sucks part way through his 2nd season or not.

Do I have to wait for his 3rd season? 4th? 5th?

I need to know when it’s ok to say that someone isn’t remotely as good as his supporters made him out to be.

shel can't answer this because he isn't a supporter.

He also is a dissenter.


He's whatever will make himself not look wrong when Lonzo finally becomes whatever it is that he becomes.


Someone: "Hey shel, you defended Lonzo and he sucks!"

shel: "Nuh uh all I said was 20 years old!!!"


Someone: "Dangit, I didn't see this coming from Lonzo. He's SO good now."

Also shel: "Pshh, I knew he'd be good. Defended him from the haters this whole time "

You think he's never going to be good but want to trade him for a really good player, simma down there.

My only point is the anti-Lonzos make posts that insninuate this is peak Lonzo and he'll never get any better, and that's pretty dumb to do.

That's it.

Yeah but we're dumb.

GMs and smart basketball people know he's a future all nba guy. Teams want that. Bet ya there's a nice market out there for a guy like that. Lakers should take advantage.

Reauxl spends more time in the sand than Hasselhoff.

You went to that line before, it produced a gif from me.

Why the shite are his detractors comfortable throwing out an opinion of what we think the guy is/will be as a basketball player but y'all can't even halfway hint at what y'all think about his game?

shite, you're difficult as hell, so I'll just ask.


shel, what do you think his 3 or so best seasons will look like? Slash line and FG% and 3 point %.

Go.

He was garbage against the Pels. NOLA probably doesn't win without him

I also refuse to understand how people can take this stance. I don't irrationally defend him.

I always use statistics to support my views.


Anyone can use statistics to spin any argument they want. That doesn't make it a good argument. For an example, see your first post in this thread.

quote:

Am I biased? Sure. I'm a Laker fan.


You were doing this WAY before the lakers drafted him.

But the idea that I'm irrationally defending him in spite of all this overwhelming statistical evidence is really ridiculous




ETA: sorry, second post in this thread.
