maybe lonzo ISN'T the prince that was promised

[Buckeye Fever]

And these LA nikkaz were smug as hell talking about "we don't want Bron and his Bron ball that won him 3 chips."

If Lonzos scrawny ass wins yall a single chip it would be gods greatest miracle ​

Them nikkaz really think Lonzo is some franchise changer

 

[SuperNintendo Chalmers]

No matter what, their dad is a genius. He sold everyone on his son being a legit star even though Zo never did shyt and most likely won’t be shyt. He got his kid to the nbas biggest franchise. You can say what you want about the guy, but he pimped the system and won.

Not really.

You all are just stupid and gullible.

 

[Amare's Right Hook]

They need to fix melos trash ass form before its too late. How are you "training" your son for the nba and his form looks like that ? Dont give me that "if it goes in" trash either

If it goes in

 

[Serious]

He won't be afraid to shoot the ball

quiet as kept, I lowkey think Gelo, might fukk around and be a Jared Dudley 2.0

If you can shoot on the wing, then you can shoot on the wing. Kyle kover and Mike Dunleavy got passes for being less athletic but great knockdown shooters....

 

[Malcolmxxx_23]

If lonzo can't make lamelo won't either. Lonzo's athleticism is part of the reason he's not succeeding now. He can't get past anyone without a screen (and isn't doing much with a screen since he grew up not running PnR, like his brothers). Lamelo is less athletic than lonzo, I can't imagine how difficult shyt gonna be for him.

Lavar fukked up for not having black wife
And it shows in their lack of blackiticsm

I'm saying..

lamelo wont even make it to the league at this rate.

lonzo probably wont be any good until he develops his body more. he wont ever be a superstar, but he can be at least a very good backup.

So it's superstar or backup? He can't just be a starting quality guard?

4-5 record playing hardest schedule so far. Ill take it i see butt hurt dlo stans trying to slander Zo and his impact on the game

 

[Shadow King]

Ain't Z Wade top 5 in the nation for 8th graders????? I think both him and Bron Jr gone be top 5 picks in the future.

How old is Bron Jr???? Y'all think Bron will still be playing when Jr is coming outta college????

Bron Jr was born in 04 so the earliest he can go pro (if the rules are the same) is the 2023-24 season.

Unless he will fall back to a 3rd/4th option somewhere Bron isn't playing that long.

What does D-LO have to do with this lol. Some Laker fans stay bringing dude up when Zo gets criticized.

Exactly nikkas leaving out the fact Zo has been facing a gauntlet of top PG's while the whole team has faced the hardest schedule. This nikka Zo has already had a more positive impact on the team than DLO ever had. People wanna keep bringing up his shooting but leaving out the fact he's been better than expected as a defender and has shown the hype about his passing and rebounding is real. Once his shot falls its a wrap and thats why nikkas are hating so hard, because thats all they got, and they know as time goes on hell improve as a shooter

 

[BXKingPin82]

Im only human, Lonzo Ball!
Dont put the blame on me!!

 

[Captain Crunch]

1. Lamelo cannot free himself for a open jumper
2. His jumper is broke
3. He can't play any defense
4. Cherry picker
5. Least athletic & smallest ball
6. Antione Walker shot selection

Lamelo will never sniff a NBA roster in his life

Dude is a top 20 recruit and will likely hit 6'6-6'8. Melo will be in the league.

 

[Hater]

Or is he

Both of those comps are terrible.

Kyle Korver is one of the best shooters in history. He's had seasons shooting close to 50% from three even though practically every shot is an instant catch-and-shoot with a defender rushing towards him. Gelo was only 35% from the short little high school line even though most of those shots were cherry-picking threes off fast breaks or basically open shots over shorter defenders. Their shooting ability is not even close. Not to mention that Korver is 4" taller than Gelo and releases far higher and quicker than him, so he has a much easier time getting that shot off.

And Dunleavy was never just a shooter, he's always been a do-everything player. He could shoot, drive, pass, rebound, play defense when he was younger, and his basketball I.Q. (son of a former player and coach) was fantastic. When he was on Duke he was one of the best rebounders and rim protectors on the team, and one of the national leaders in steals. And like Korver, he's 4" taller than Gelo. All those skills turned out to be mediocre at the NBA level, and his slowness hurt him a lot...but at least he's mediocre at everything. Gelo straight sucks at all those same things.

If Gelo was 6'9" instead of 6'5" AND he had a motor, he might have a chance in the league. As it is, he has no chance in hell. There are hundred ballers who shoot just as well as him and who demonstrate actual athleticism and try on defense.
