Lonzo is still just a teenager. He's gonna fill out as he gets older like all of us do, but when Lonzo fills out he's gonna be a very big man. All you have to do is look at the kids father and his uncles.
Liangelo is a freak, even considering how large his father and uncles are, liangelo is fn huge. No way a 18 year old kid should be built like that. You can't compare Lonzo to liangelo. They are both gonna get bigger and carry some serious muscle. Lean muscle.
Lavar is lean af and looks skinny, but I bet he still weighs around 300 pounds. |

I don't agree with this. Ingram's parents are huge... You see this with a lot of NBA players.. I think it's just bone structure and the whole Ectomporph thing. My parents are built big and I'm super skinny.
I think Zo' is going to easily put on weight - but that's based off looking at his bone structure and him not having super skinny thighs to start off with, and his arms are already gaining size. Some guys are top heavy like DLo/Karl Towns, they get bigger and stronger upstairs, easily.. But don't end up gaining overall weight, because their lower body's have that Ectomorph thing going on.
Zo' doesn't have that issue
His legs might already be bigger than Tyson Chandler's https://usatftw.files.wordpress.com/2013/07/tyson.jpg?w=660&h=576&crop=1

Idk I think Ingram is putting on muscle pretty quickly. We're talking about NBA players that should be dedicated to training and eating correctly. They have already hit the genetic lottery, so if they are putting in the work they should reach their potential.
Ingram is still only a kid who has been working out for only a year...he's gonna be a big guy. I'm talking about lean muscle, not looking like a body builder. Tyson chandler looks huge in that pic (although he seems to have skinny legs). If Ingram fills out to look like that I wouldn't be complaining at all. |

I'm not sure how good Lonzo would be if he weighed as much as Lavar thinks he will be. I don't think it will help all that much. I would rather him be few pounds too light than heavy.
With BI he might have a more extreme body type but he is still human. He needs to be on a slight calorie surplus to gain lean muscle. No point in rushing to add pounds to his frame if its fat. |

True, but remember lebron played point guard when he came into the NBA too. If Lonzo turns out the way Lavar expects, Lonzo may end up more of a point-forward like lebron. |

Dude can't dance and looks weird when he tries lol. That being said, best part of this whole video is that it's late at night and guy is in the gym balling out. What I really loved about Kobe is that I felt that he cared as much if not more than I did about the lakers winning and losing. Kobe's hurt? Play through that...putting up 1000's of shots in the middle of the night? No problem...upset when he or the team doesn't play well? Yep, more than I am.
I don't live and die by the lakers fortunes, but I love em and when they win..it's a good night, when they lose, I'm in a bad mood for a while. He is now Rich, Famous, lives in LA and guess what? He's not out chasing tail, he's in the gym wearing a polo dunking and having a good time.
I'm on team Lonzo for sure |

Did anybody order the old ZO2? If you did, Lavar has decided to send you this new shoe instead. Call BBB if you don't want the new shoe instead. |

Lonzo wire has been launched
More coming from USA Today but the first 2 sites launched are Lonzo wire and warriors wire. The dude really does generate clicks/ratings and media outlets are definitely picking up on it. |

Episode 4.
I love how the Balls care about winning more than stats. |
Nice episode!! |
This show is pretty good, I'm impressed with the quality tbh. I definitely think it is perfect duration, focus of segments for how people (especially younger) watch content.
Whoever is producing this is doing a great job. It's not all basketball and it's not over the top with drama/fake crap either. |
Agree. I watched one episode and then had to watch them all. Surprisingly well done. |

Supposedly the show is being done by the same people who do the Kardashians (no not Lamar, Harden, Tristan, Humphries, Clarkson, Parsons, or Griffin!). But it's well produced and enjoyable. And this is coming from someone who utterly hates reality tv. And who would of thought Lonzo's girl would have reality tv star written all over her. |

1) Never trust a guy who's place you stand to take
2) IMO changing his shot at this point in his career would be suicide. Its too much of an adjustment. It wouldn't be a minor tweak.
3) I'm just a guy. Jason Kidd is a HOF player and he had one of the best shots in his day.  |

Jason Kidd is right. This is a throw away season so it's better to start the fix now.

If Shawn Marion can be effect with that crazy looking shot then I'm not sure why Lonzo needs to change his shot |

I don't think this is a throw away season and if you think he will be able to adjust from a 45 degree shooting arm to a prototypical one in one season... I don't see it. Then again, stranger things have happened. |

Except Marion couldn't shoot lol
He got away with it by being the most dynamic athlete (outside LeBron) in the NBA during his prime. |

Marions jump shots were off of catch and shoot opportunities from steve nash.
As a franchise point guard..Lonzo will have the ball in his hands a lot. Right now with his shot form it'll be very difficult for him to shoot dribble pullups going to the right.
Hes gonna need to fix his shot to maximize his potential. |

If anything Lonzo needs to work on his footwork most of all when it comes to his shot. Most important aspect of it right now imo.
