Yeah I saw him on undisputed, I'd definitely keep Lonzo
He just needs to put in mad work to become better at driving to the basket and fixing that shot/free throw
What he has you can't teach, you can become a better scorer however

He doesn't have to fix that shot, per se.

Kevin Martin
Reggie Miller
Jamaal Wilkes
Larry Bird
Alex English


They all had weird looking shots, but every one of those guys could flat out score. He needs to keep working at it, and find a consistent form with his lower body, because that is what is throwing him off. His jumping point is all over the place. Either his feet are in front of his hands or in back. There is never any consistency.

Now we just need for Howard to get traded again on June 20th, 2019 and we can start petitioning for it to be a national holiday.


Here's hoping Kupchak will take Deng in a trade.

By fix that shot I more meant get some confidence, what the glove said was really good advice
Stop worrying about your shot and shooting jumpers
Just think about getting the ball in the basket, get a routine with the free throws and like you said find some consistency

I know this draft is really good, but man, if Suns don't select Doncic, they will regret it.

They are not taking him. Phoenix is taking De'Andre Ayton

 

[zizinho]

Doncic is the best player in the draft, wish we didnt trade away our pick and tanked for him

Lakers made a trade with Philadelphia to get the 39th pick in the draft.

From where I am sitting, this could mean 1 of two things.

#1) Package all their picks to move up in the middle of the draft to get Zhaire Smith
#2) They are making a big run at free agency, and these 2nd round picks do not count against the cap until they are signed, and these players are being used as cheap bench options.


I don't see the acquisition of said pick as being packaged to offload Deng or acquire Kawhi.

 

[zizinho]

trade? what did we give them?

Bulls 2nd round pick in 2019 and cash considerations. Philly was looking to thin out their picks for tonight anyway.

hm, if Bulls tank that pick could be 31-35 next summer. it better be worth it

His shooting motion is also super slow, which makes him more susceptible to being blocked than your average joe....

His release time is on par with Klay Thompson. Lonzo did a Sports Science special with ESPN.

Didn't he modify it mid-season to speed it up or something? I thought I recalled reading an article like that.

I don't know if he modified it, but that video was taken before he got drafted.

are you ready Sergio?

The NBA Draft? Yes, of course.

I don't care about that certain hockey team north of the border, so I don't give a shit what they do.

But thanks for asking. And don't come crying to me when they fuck the pick up, or worse yet, trade the pick for Ryan o'Reilly.

Mark, I wasn't kidding when I told you I didn't care anymore. It's got nothing to do with you at all. You know that.
