Ironically, I think Dlo would fit in great in Vogel's offense.

DLO needs 1-2 good games to get on track. I recall last year in the Nets season he started off slow, then had a great game or two and just went on a tear for a month or two. Slowed down a bit but wound up having a really good year.

He should do the same in GST. I think he is a legit all-star caliber player, maybe not a perennial all-star and def not a superstar.

People rag on him I do not get it, there are like so many MAX guys in the league who are not even all-star caliber. Let alone as versatile.

Not that far off his career averages.

Zo vs Dlo. Who do you have?


Lonzo. Even though he is younger, he has a better win share per 48, BPM, etc. Lonzo's defensive strengths more than make up for Russell's offense.

Ironically, I think they make a great backcourt together.

I wanted to see 6 months of D'Lonzo together.

Also dinwiddle and Levert got hurt once he had free reigns to chuck its when he went off. Similar to whats about to happen in GS

Dinwiddie played 68 games so DLO continued his hot form even with him. Kyrie "chucking" his way to 2-4 record with the same team though. Maybe DLO had a positive impact on the Nets record?

He definitely helped Jarrett Allen, who is struggling next to Kyrie. Their three best players are going 1-on-1 the entire game, so it's 4-on-5 whenever two of them are in the game together. Irving, Levert, and Dinwiddie don't fit together at all, and the trio averages under 4 minutes a game.

Kurucs is also struggling this season, and they're missing role players like Ed Davis and Jared Dudley. Prince is an improvement over RHJ and Carroll, though.

I'm okay with a guy putting up 37 shots when he does it with a high percentage, and his teammates are sub-par. Great night for him..

DLo upped his trade value and they still manage to lose and not compromise the tanking

DLo has a 117 million dollar deal. He’s paid to play well.

Another solid game in a loss. Too bad the squad is decimated.

So is KCP. LOL!

He's paid to play well, but according to many around here, he can't. So now it's expected? Isn't that moving the goal post? Give the man his props. D'Lo doing things I thought he should be doing in a Lakers uni.

Draymond needs to score more as their second best player now. 4 points won't cut it. Contact year too.
