The college game and the pro game is like comparing apples to bananas. He played one year of college. Hate when people bring up those numbers. They are not the same.
He has a broken shot and needs to put lots and lots and lots of hours into fixing it or he will always suck.
I love his court sense, his passing ability, now if he could really improve his shot, wow, he will be really good.
I see fixing a broken shot to adding the confidence to his game and fire in his game that, at times, is seriously lacking.

And can someone sign me up at LakersGround.com, please? I have a job offer to PM..."

Lonzo, Kuzma, Zubac and Bryant should all try to work with Amoila this summer with Julius and Cousins _________________ How NBA 2K18 failed the All-Time Lakers:

Am I reading that right that Zo 's best shooting %'s across the board were his Freshman year (that site only has Freshman and Senior year). Someone can correct me, but I recall Freshman Zo's shot was more normal.
No Summer League for Zo & Kuz. They have bigger fish to fry.
Very glad to hear it. I hear Hart is playing, but I would prefer he not also.
This summer is very different than last summer, we need to all just be in El Segundo. By we, I mean the players...I will stay on my couch of course. _________________ Love, Laker Lanny

heard Woj on Golic and Wingo this morning say something similar....said he needs to listen to the Lakers, and not "Daddy Ball" this summer....seemed kind of aggressive for Woj.

Unfortunately, it seems like Lavar raised Zo to be a beta who never speaks against him or challenges him. _________________ "Chick lived and breathed Lakers basketball…but he was also fair and objective and called every game the way it was played."

Anybody know if Lonzo worked out with Gunnar last summer or if he worked out in Chino Hills? And what he intends to do this summer?
He worked out with Gunnar after the draft.
He still eats stuff like bowls of cheese though lol. Needs a serious diet change.
Also I think Amoila is a lot better than gunnar when it comes to bball, I hope it's possible for Lonzo to get with him
We need to get all our guys in their with Randle's trainer. _________________ "It's just a job. Grass grows, birds fly, waves pound the sand. I beat people up."-The Greatest

The way I see it is that he is correct in that he does "owe" his parents to a degree. I have no doubt they made many sacrifices to get him to where he is and the opportunities that he has.....so I get that. At the same time, I do think he will need to reach the point where he understands the best way to help his family is not to do what or how they always prefer, but just become the best basketball player/professional that he can which will create the biggest opportunities for everyone in the family. Lavar is always going to think he knows best...it is Lonzo's responsibility to actually choose what is best.

The speculation is that Woj’s main Lakers source is Pelinka and if that’s the case this certainly lines up with what Magic and Pelinka told Lonzo in his exit interview about this being the biggest summer of his life and needing to follow in Randle’s footsteps for working out and regimen.

It was even better if you take out the 5 heaves at the buzzer. Watching the video of him you can see how confident he was at UCLA. He just needs to get that back and he’ll be fine.
