I'm convinced by Lonzo again. He definitely has an intangible feel for the ball that others won't ever get.

I thought we played really hard tonight, aside from that miserable stretch when ennis was at point in the first half. I’ll give credit where credit is due, Randle played very decently tonight. He had six turnovers, most of the bonehead variety...but he was active and good at the offensive end.

I thought Lonzo, except for that airball 3, was amazing tonight. He that a stretch where he made 4-5 small plays in a row that don’t show up in box scores that helped us keep our lead. I don’t really care about his shooting, 2-10 or 5-10....it’s the difference of 6 points on the scoreboard, but he more than makes up for it with his intangibles.

I thought Fox was awesome to start the game, then he faded and ended up with a below average stat line.

Ball was easily the best player on the court tonight and scored 5 points. He masterfully orchestrated this game without his shot falling.

We're tied with Sac for 4th/5th worst record now. We could easily move to like 7th or 8th worst record in a week if we keep winning.

Yup. OKC lost to Portland tonight. Hope PG caught a glimpse of some Lonzo ball after the game.

Zo controls the game with his defensive activity, rebounds, and pushing of pace. Totally different team without him in there.

Great to see BroLo and Randle play well too.

Surprised at how well Kuzma can pass when he sets his mind to distributing the ball a bit. That's gonna help him in the long run big time.

I feel like I want to have the 8th-10th worst record by the end of the year (hopefully even better). That way, it'll be almost impossible for Boston to get our pick, and while the Sixers will get a solid pick, I wont sweat it.

it ll be vital to end the season having something like the 10-12 th worst record not only for the pick but for free agents too.it ll also sweeten everything we did
with nash and dwight, if we had kept russell, it would have been almost a win out of a very tricky (and (bleep)) situation

Getting Cousins will help us in that situation.

Hopefully he's taking note

Playing with Lonzo after playing with Westbrook would be a night and day situation

Lonzo could turn PG into a legit superstar!

Yes, one is a top 5 player and the other is an up and down rookie.
