Chance of a Steve Francis/Keith Van Horn situation if the lakers don't draft Lonzo?

Small shot of it working on the knicks IMO. Melo would have to get moved and start clean with Ball/Kristaps.

Ball And Kristaps pick and roll could be deadly. and a great young nucleus to rebuild with

I just think if Phil leaves and they do completely away with that antiquated triangle. Lonzo and KP P AND R could be special.

Lonzo gotta work on that mid range J.That would make him lethal in the P N R

Probably one of his biggest weaknesses right now.Plus if you can get him moving right, might be tough for him to get that wind up jumpshot off.


I say Booker because Book can facilitate.They switch him over to PG from time to time.

Plus he likes working the mid range & he's developing a post game.

He can create open looks for Ball.Especially from 3.

You'd have two 6'7 guys in the backcourt who can alternate between scoring & facilitating.

I think Ball is one of those instant chemistry guys.

Bledsoe has good individual stats, but he's a chemistry killer.


Hell, Ball's big enough to maybe play a lil SF.You could probably have him out there with Bledsoe & Booker.

PG-Bledsoe

SG-Booker

SF-Ball

PF-TJ Warren

C-Marquese Chriss


If they wanted to run a small ball line up

Remember, Van Horn was projected by a lot of people to go #1 that year.

The Spurs would have regretted that pick forever

How nice was he coming out of college was young when he was drafted but just looking at what he did in the league nothing screamed top 3 prospect to me, he wasn't a bad player but damn sure didn't live up to his pick
