Help a clueless breh out: are the Ball brothers really that good???

[SadimirPutin]

Lonzo....I have a wait and see....I just have this feeling that he is gonna have a rough time as a rookie...

Liangelo I havent watched him enough to have any credible opinion on him

Lamelo will have to completely rework his game to succeed at the college level and it will have to be completely unrecognizable from what it is now to work in the pros....

Yea he is 16 but he has absolutely atrocious habits

cp3 and especially steph were never as hyped as lonzo. was selected before cp3 from college

steph had way more red flags scouting-wise than lonzo, hence him falling all the way to where he was drafted. a lot of people, including myself werent sure if it was the right move.

Are you serious? In college Dwill was better than Paul and Curry didn't fall in the draft he was actually taken waaayyy too high. Your franchise got lucky. The red flags didn't really have much to do with his game it was more because of his size and sub par passing abilities.

Lonzo gonna surpass Jordan when it's all said and done. That's all you need to know.

Jordan Clarkson

almost nothing youve said conflicted with what I said. the red flags on curry were exactly his size/lack of athleticism and not being a pg. if he had superstar hype, how was he taken way too high ? exactly, he didnt have superstar hype.

yea in college dwill was better than cp3, thats the point. cp3 wasnt even the most hyped pg in his own class.

lonzo is far and away the most hyped pg prospect in this class and is considered a surefire PG player with a really high floor and a superstar ceiling.

Gelo is more of a workhorse scorer (lead the teams in scoring even when Zo was there). Like Zach Randolf but can shoot 3's and is a guard

lavar is the goat hype machine
zo was good as a blue chip
gelo is a unknown
melo jajajahahaa just watch and see

other 16 year olds are far more polished. he doesnt know how to play the game just some AAU shyt. right now hes just a clown out there

While I agree that he needs discipline, he is way more talented than the average 16 year old

 

[Long Live The Mamba]

He's not 250...


He's 230 and benches 300lbs easily



To answer OP... Yeah they're pretty good.

The youngest could eventually be the best one. Been playing varsity since he was like 13/14. Everybody who hasn't watched them only seen summer league shyt where he's basically the only nikka on an undersized team of neighborhood kids thats even ranked.

Zo is the most athletic and best passer and probably best overall though. Gelo is more of a workhorse scorer (lead the teams in scoring even when Zo was there). Like Zach Randolf but can shoot 3's and is a guard

Melo is flashier and more creative with getting his shot. I think they will all be in the nba together

Damn it, I was coming in here to tag you but you're already in this bytch!..

no they aren't lol

i never said hes not talented. its everything else hes missing

and those stats arent even good for someone that is supposed to be an NBA prospect

 

[The Fire]

Lonzo's hype is due to his crazy dad, not his game..

Purely skills D-Rose, Kidd, CP3, Steph, etc were all more hyped than Lonzo

Lonzo had hype before lavar was a thing. Lavar was "lonzo balls crazy dad" for quite a bit.

fukk the #'s
just off the i.test
compared to what an elite blue chip looks like

meLo looks like what¿

[The Fire]

The problem is people who don't watch basketball at the HS level, watch lamelo ball highlights and reach conclusions on decision making, IQ, etc. At 15-17, nobody's going to exhibit NBA-level decision making and IQ
You look at skills, physical traits, performance

He isn't 1 and done type talent, for sure.

I see Melo as a top 30-60 player and if Lavar wasn't his dad he'd be in college no less than 2 years. He simple doesn't have the quick twitch athleticism and has adopted bad habits but he can create his shot, has good vision, and a nose for the ball with good size.

 

[street heat]

no they aren't lol

show me videos of current NBA players at 16 doing the goofy shyt this kid does. jacking up double digit 3s a game and only making a quarter of them, against players that aren't NBA prospects.
