Our #2 pick baby!


Yes coachable is key. There's a lot of high IQ guys that are not and become cancer. He's like coach on the floor he's going to make Luke look like a genius.


Lonzo the anti Cousins


I was going to say someone else.


Dont you dare!
Although, that's what I thought too.


Lol yeah let's keep the peace and not go there. But I thinking what y'all are thinking


Are we worse than the JLin thread?


No nothing is worse than the JLin thread, well except the other guy's thread. Glad that's Brooklyn's problem now

Prediction's on Lonzo's shooting percentage from three this year? I think he'll shoot around 37% from three this season.

I'd be really impressed by that number.
I think he needs to step closer to the line on his 3s in the NBA.
He was so used to being like 3-4 feet off the college line, I think it throws off his shot when he tries to be that far off the line in the NBA (which of course is farther than the college 3).

He was already shooting 3's from NBA distance in the NCAA. Kuz mentioned that the 3 point line in college is too close and messed up the spacing for him to get good looks. He likes shooting it from the NBA line much better. Zo is such a bball genius that he figured that out for him self and was shooting it from NBA distance in college.

What I'm saying is that he's shooting the nba 3 about 3-4 feet off the line as well (from what I saw at summer league). So he's adding another 3-4 feet to his shoot.

Zo's team was 3-0 in last nights scrimmages. He had Kuz, Vander, TB, Brewer on his team. That's an MVP right there.

Is it necessary to continue to bash posters who liked Russell? At least those people are still around, unlike the cult of Lin who just follow him from team to team.

It's an indication of what Lonzo continues to learn and display at every level: When it's a close game, find a way to win. Julius has talent, but he and his teammates can use that special something.

It's also the team-wide contagion that is the Lonzo Effect. By the time he sat out a couple of SL games, the identity and new style of play had been so strongly established with the team that it carried over even minus the maestro. It also helps that Luke is having them play the pace that comes most natural to Zo. The other players, in time, will begin to flourish as well.

Got this off GT’s twitter. Man talk about major butthurt

I haven’t even really thought about the sixers at all after the draft. This guy is more obsessed with lakers training camp than the team he covers

Who is that dude? Someone important?
I saw him on my Lakers timeline, and just thought he was some moron.
He doesn't seem to make any educated arguments, just getting in a twitter war with people.

Oh man the Sixers and their fans are all salty at Lonzo. Beating Indy and Philly on their home courts would be special.
