@Dracudiddy you asked me why I said that about Lonzo and Philly? Well

A. He's not gonna play to his full potential just due to wanting to be a Laker (unless all this is a front)

B. If they don't get legitimate wing at some point between now and then, Philly is still gonna have the spacing issues they do now. Lonzo is a good 3 pt shooter, but that form is gonna need some at first adjustment when it comes to the NBA. Let's just say they go McConnell-Zo-Covington-Simmons-Embiid (interchange Covington with whoever else may start), the best proven shooter in that lineup is Embiid. Covington is inconsistent and T.J and Ben don't seem to have the capability nor want to be better shooters

C. Fox is simply the perfect piece to what they needed out there last year playing Embiid ball. He could make things happen ofc, McConnell was a respectable facilitator, but he wasn't passing to anyone who could do anything creative with the ball. Plus Fox can eat in ISO, as he proved against UCLA. Unless they sign a trade for Klay or get Waiters or some shyt, Fox is the best 2 guard they're getting

BTW what does Ben Simmons have to do with Lonzo Ball?


Ben Simmons is infinitely better and really five inches taller than lonzo ball.
The same lonzo ball who is really only 6.3, and not 6.5

One of these three scenarios will happen on draft night. 1. the Celtics take Ball with the first pick 2. The Lakers pass on ball with the second pick and 3 which I think is the most likely will happen of the three is that NBA commissioner Adam Silver will accidentally call out LaVar's name instead of Lonzo's.

Again, what does Ben Simmons have to do with Lonzo Ball?
You act like they play the same position.

I always thought Fox would fit better playing beside Dangelo and Lakers are currently trying to move Clarkson :manny:

I could see Lonzo slide to 4th. Philly should'nt even take him seeing that they got Simmons.

Lonzo could even end up on the Kings or Suns :beli:

This would shake up the entire draft and more so destroy the BBB movement :damn:

He could play in Philly..
