Hopefully Bolden.



He's literally everything we would want in a wing, who could also play the 3-5. Imagine Ball and Bolden on the fast break?

I'm sure the FO loves Fox and really like JJ...but I have a hard time seeing Magic passing up someone that reminds him of him for his 1st major player acquisition.

And I do believe that the Lakers getting the #2 while giving Boston the #1 was planned out by Silver to ensure we got Ball and Boston was taken care of as well with Fultz or Jackson. NBA can't survive without us being on TV all the time. LOL.

I think it would be a mistake to pass on Ball because he is a special player that makes everyone around him better.

I'd hate to see him thrive in Philly playing alongside Embiid and Simmons while we constantly criticize Jackson's poor shooting.


UGH SAME

My biggest fear is combining the powers of Ben Simmons and Lonzo Ball with Embiid right next to them

off court issues like Lavar ball?

I would say,,, worse than Lavar Ball.
NBA wouldn't suspend Lonzo for his dads actions.
They WOULD suspend Jackson for off court behavior not fitting of the NBA image.

Magic seeing Lonzo play in person has been well documented. The thing that's not mentioned regarding Jackson is that Magic didn't go see him play even though Jackson played Michigan State in the tournament. Magic is their most prominent alum and is always at a game or two, and he didn't use that opportunity to see Jackson. Of course he might have been busy or just didn't want to see his school get crushed as Kansas was a heavy favorite.

I don't believe he went to another Kansas game.

I'm not really high on Jackson either partly because of that too. Beating up women or even threatening too is a bad sign for his future if he couldn't even keep his composure. At least he's getting help now with anger management.

Even with Lavar's constant pressure, Lonzo rises way above expectations and doesn't get in his head.

It's just random with a Bolden quote tree and then suddenly just a post that says Bam Adebayo!

Nothing bad about your preference, just the timing was funny.

If he is screaming at her and kicking a few thousand dollars of damages in to a girls car door in public, who knows what could happen when he eventually snaps in private.

I wonder why??? It's perfectly okay to be objective. However, you pound negative on Ball and pound positive on Jackson.

Yeah it's a toss up at this point between Ball and the field
