I've seen him play about 10 times this year I don't get the hype I don't understand the number 2 pick, I don't understand the media attention.

I've yet to Be wowed by his athleticism or anything he does on the court.

Am I wrong?

He's a balanced player that isn't a great scorer but provides other contributions to a team.

He's been decent to good so far.

Its 2 months into his first season. What’s was his expectation for that vs his actual output?

He'll be a top 5 player in 3-5 years.

His shooting motion should of been a huge red flag.

He throws dimes, but other than that, I don’t understand why he is talked about daily.

Well since he’s already been labeled a bust, I would say he’s underrated

This.

Chauncey Billups was a bust who was traded about 4 or 5 times within 5 seasons. Ball is barely getting a quarter of a season.

he's a good player, who does a lot of things.

If he could some how change his shot and improve his shooting, he would be a very good player.

He's avg 9 pts 7 rbs and 7 asts a game on 34% shooting/26% 3pt shooting.

That's very close to Jason Kidds numbers his first year.

Kidd shot 43% from 2 his rookie year and got to the line two more times per game than Lonzo does.

He's the exact opposite of balanced.
