I'm REALLY curious how two al-time-level (above elite)'amplifiers', guys that make teammates better on the same team plays out.
Historically speaking, has there ever been as good vision / passing on one team? I can't really think of one.
With our running game, one would think we'll see some really dynamic ball. |

That would be incorrect.
He is on an all-time list for having lowest TS% and playing more than 25 minutes a game in 50 games. |

Harden/CP3 comes to mind, and it was last year. I'm sure there are more and better examples if you go back.

CP3 for sure. But no chance does Harden have better vision or passing ability. He’s great at breaking down the defense and that leaves him with simple reads and passes. Combine that with Dantonis system and you get those gaudy assist numbers. It’s not cause he’s an elite passer. |

Keeping things in perspective, he's all time elite vision / passing for a 20 year old. I'm assuming he continues his trajectory here. |

If the only guys you can point out are all time greats that says something about the OPs point. |

Lonzo has to get back on the court first.
Then he has to survive his terrible jump shot and FT%.
Then he has to survive his dad’s words.
Then he has to survive Rondo, Lebron, and Lance.
And most of all, he has to survive Magic Johnson. And based on what’s been going on this summer and Magic’s comments about Lavar on Kimmel... Good Luck Zo.
He has unlimited potential, but he has a giant hill to climb. |

| I don't think any team has had three of the best five or so passers in the NBA before. Beyond that we have a bunch of average to good passers. That's the one thing we will be elite at. |

I'm more excited to see Rondo + Lebron + Ingram together tbh. Then kyle "Running hook" Kuzma and we are set.
Maybe we will get to see a line up of for stretches
PG.Rondo
SG.Lonzo
SF.Ingram
PF.Kuzma
C.Lebron |

Hope I'm wrong but this lineup has two non-shooters and three ISO ball enthusiasts. |

With the style of play we will have we will minimize the need for shooters and which 3? Ingram was forced to play PG and kuzma is one of the best without the ball. Also rondo has shot around %35 from 3 the last 4-5 years and he has been working hard this summer at it. I’m not saying play them all the time but for a few minutes to see what their IQ can do. I believe Lonzo will improve his shot also. |

Don't forget the elite finisher, Hartzma McPope.

West, Wilt and Goodrich would've been pretty slick I bet. All three dominant scorers and proven facilitators (when they wanted to - in Wilt's case).

Sure. There have been lots of teams with players who had great court vision,
Bird, Walton, Dennis Johnson
Jerry West/Gail Goodrich
Magic/Norm Nixon
Frazier/Monroe/Bill Bradley
Cousy/Sharman/Russell
Isiah Thomas/Joe Dumars
Rondo/Garnett/Pierce |

Maybe Lonzo can take Lebron under his wing and show him a thing or two about playmaking.

Lonzo will have to dumb it down for LBJ though. LBJ doesn't have Lonzo's IQ or vision.
