NBA 2017 Summer League Thread

fox already showing the difference between him & lonzo: ball looks to pass first, fox look to score first...both good players, just approach the game differently....think fox is gonna look good during summer league cause it's more about just showing what you can do/getting yours....think ball will look good in the actual season when he gets to run luke's offense and it's about the team....both should have good years....

Fox is just as pass first as lonzo, he's just much more aggressive. They are different types of passers. Lonzo is more of a traditional floor general and Fox is more of a modern PnR one.

The knock on Fox is that he doesnt shoot jumpers like Ball, and Ball had to carry more of a load in college. Expect to see Fox have better numbers throughout most of his career due to his style of play, although I think Ball will be more favored in the department of advanced analytics and +/-

So he's a passive scorer, sub par defensively and takes bad shots and you're cool with that? I'm just trying to understand Lakers fans expectations after tonight

Nah there's work to be done

Why is Hield there

 

[The Fire]

Why is he shooting from so far back?

Because he can't create space or lose his defenders off-ball

yeah
Beat his man a couple times at least, and he's big, so he'll get better at it hopefully

Why is Hield there

Chemistry, plus him and Fox are literally the faces of the franchise now they need all the experience they can get.

we'll see.....i think both will have good careers at least....think fox will have better scoring numbers cause he's a better scorer, but think ball will have better other category numbers.....

Josh Jackson looks smooth as butter with the ball in his hands.
