Can't average 20 pts a game when you're basically non-existent on offense every other night.

He was suppose to shine here with Zion.
This is who Lonzo is. Solid player, may get an All Star nod once or twice, damn sure isn't someone you wanna throw the bag at though.
On a great team, he wouldn't even be the lead guard on the team as long as he's streaky and inconsistent scorer outside of the 3 pt shot. You cannot be a lead guard without a consistent jump shot unless you have a wing that can help mask your deficiencies. The only problem is that other teams are looking for that exact same thing.
Also, I don't think that people realize that the Zion is up for a supermax rookie extension after next season. Is the Zo/Zion/Ingram the big 3 core you really want NO to lock up long term at $90+ million a year when they can't even make the play-in tournament?
And that's what is going to hold him back from ever being lead guard material as you can't have your lead PG being a liability on offense like that. You better be all worldy at everything else (he's not) or you better have a wing to mask his offensive deficiencies (they don't).
Lonzo's defense and passing are good, but not elite. Let's clear that misconception up. If he was elite at defense, then he would be in All-NBA
Defensive consideration, which he's not. People throw the term elite around too lightly these areas.
New Orleans has a terrible Coach and is not a well built roster. I prefer lonzo on the Knicks or the sixers, teams with legitimate scoring options that lonzo can play that defense facilitator role with the ability to be the catch and shoot option. Now that might not be worth the max but lonzo s defense and passing are elite. He’s just a weird guard that can’t creat his own shot
I still think he’s worth 20 mill in this climate, he offers great positional size, passing and even if he’s regressed he’s a + defender. Catch and shoot option and he can develop a drive game off pump fakes and make plays.
his greatest weak is being unable to ISO but maybe he develops a post game over smaller guards?![]()
is he a free agent this year?
see a couple folks saying he’s coming to the nix
*edit*
yep FA after this season...no wonder he putting up numbers
Zo needs to shoot that middy when the 3 aint dropping and even if it is dropping stop camping at the 3 point line, not even steph camps out there all the time lol
And his defence has regressed ,specially his team defense, which can say its the whole team reallyu can argue that hart is a better 1 on 1 defender than zo, he's good but

Better than Ben?He’s arguably the best defending PG in the league tho?
Sounds elite to me![]()

Dude is one-dimensional as fukk. His good games only exist when his 3 point ball is falling. Apart from that he has zero bag. Good 3 point shooter, Good passer, solid defender/rebounder. But he's genuinely a terrible scorer & playmaker.He was suppose to shine here with Zion.
