This is EXACTLY why he made such a terrible coach too! |

Does Floppy have to start so far from the basket or is that just how the Lakers ran it? The ball handler is not a threat to score when they standing so far out.

One thing that rarely gets discussed is lonzo ability to finish at the rim and he is so underrated athletically A no he's not Westbrook but he has all the tools he needs to flourish athletically in the league in almost every way unlike adalaonwho I was a big fan of and still am

Not to be a spoiled, entitled brat, but when are we getting the post-draft reaction pod, GT?  |

Can't wait to watch the Hart breakdown? Are you going to make one for Kuzgod?

I'm sure it's been said before but Hart reminds me of a pure 2-guard version of JC: worse creation ability, better size, similar tunnel vision issues. Probably better on defense?
1st team All-Good Dude potential though, I'm sure. |

Yeah my biggest hope with Hart is that he's a good defender, while also cutting out the tunnel vision and being a better spot up shooter than JC |

| So he's basically a bigger version of Fisher with better finishing ability. |

Hey. I was actually thinking of Hart as Fisher and Ball as Kobe (as in age, not ability), and was thinking these 2 can be the Lakers backcourt for the next decade+.
Hoping Hart has the leadership qualities/worth ethic of Fisher. |

On offense, perhaps. Sounds like a cut above that on defense. |

I was thinking this is JC redux too with some notable differences. Hart the better spot up shooter, better on D. JC probably better at getting to the rim. Both with tunnel vision unfortunately. |

I don't see Hart as being anything close to Fisher. Fisher didn't play a whole lot of D the way Hart does. Fisher lacked any kind of quickness for a guard his size. And Fisher was a fine spot up shooter, likely better than Hart will ever be. Fisher was a better passer and did not suffer from tunnel vision as I remember either. Only thing they have in common is both are 2 guards |

Fisher was a PG right?
Or are you talking about his dating antics?

Fisher was NEVER a point guard. Kobe played the point all the years after Shaq left, Smush Parker or no Smush Parker, LOL! Fisher was a SG, that's it. |

| Re: Kuzma's jump shot ("he has a tendency jump forward with his feet while leaning back with his body") -- isn't that exactly what KD does on his jump shot? I thought a lot of players do this on their jumper. |
