No reason why he can't replicate the same aggression and stop second-guessing himself whenever he gets the ball in his hands. I don't expect him to put up 20 points every game, but he doesn't need to in order to be an effective scorer.

I think Zo should really pattern his game after a prime Jrue Holiday. A prime Jrue Holiday would make the Lakers go.
I don’t think it’s an aggression thing, I think he has some serious issues with his mechanics and he will continue to be an inconsistent scorer until those issues are corrected.
Really? Cause whenever I see him play, he's typically second-guessing himself and being passive. You really don't think it's an aggression thing when he fades in and out of games on the offensive end? I don't necessarily disagree that he has issues with his mechanics, but again, he can still be aggressive and find ways to score that don't require the act of actually shooting the ball.

attitude as bad as his odor
It took Jrue about 8 years to reach this version of himself, so it really depends on how long the Lakers are gonna give him. His transformation might need to happen on another team.
Countless? Prove it all you got is love and bosh. Love still sucked by himself. Even last playoffs with plenty of touches and im not talking about personal shyt I’m talking performance. You gon have to switch up that argument again man.
COMPARED TO THE COUNTLESS OTHERS WHO SUBSIDED DRASTICALLY??
KYRIE RAN FROM THAT FRANCHISE WIT THE QUICKNESS CUZ OF BRON
STOP
His put more effort into being a distributor and other parts of his game. He was out a good chunk of the year last year though so I don’t know if I would call that lead. I was talking shooting efficiency anyway.
To be fair those dumbasses served us some terrible losses. I can understand going retro and talking about past Lakers that ain’t make it.

I agree about the confidence being the reason Zo is inconsistent. The end result is the same though, inconsistency with both of them. I'm all on the Lonzo bandwagon and think he's a much better all around player than D-Lo who is a better scorer and that's all IMO. I think people need to realize dude is still 21 and its going to take time for him to figure out who he is as a player. Add on the knee surgery this summer which usually takes time to build strength back up and to get used to that added strength. I forgot who said it but they had a great point in how Zo is getting more and more explosive as the season goes on due to that and how it all ties into his lack of confidence due to not fully trusting his knee.
But at the same time tho breh was able to score at every level and he’s beginning to show signs now after an offseason and getting his body in shape.
I think the more comfortable he gets the better he’ll look.

All I know is if we kobe had this same squad wed lock up #1 seed
SHOULD I LIST THE PLAYERS? IT STARTS WIT LARRY HUGHES AND IT ENDS WIT BRANDON INGRAM
THERES A FEW DOZEN NAMES IN BETWEEN WHO CLEARLY REGRESSED PLAYIN WIT LEBRON
GIVE ME THE WORD N ILL COMPILE THAT LIST FOR U FAM
Kobe pre Gasol and pre Bynum injury had our joke of a roster in first seed in 2007-2008.
Larry got injured and stop some of that logic man. The superstar player gonna get most of the shots same shyt happened with kobe. Lebron gave Ingram plenty of iso opportunity.
