Ballers Wanna Ball, Rollers Wanna Roll, But We're Taking All--The Official 2017-2018 Lakers Thread

[MikelArteta]

lonzo is even missing free throws its all in his head
kind of reminds me of chauncey billups, i remember when my raptors had him and dude was horrible and folks wrote him off it took years but billups became big shot

what? The lakers are playing pretty well for the young ass team they are
it’s the vets that are fukking up if anything

 

[ALonelyDad]

Missed the game..how were the rotations?

 

[O.T.I.S.]

nah, he's just getting the Russell treatment

at this time last year, we were 6-6 with Russell, we're 5-7 right now

This team is instantly better if we draft Tatum instead. And guess what? Chances are we still draft Kuzma because the Nets weren't planning on taking him

And?

nikkas act like they didn't have 2-3 years of D.lo sucking but can't even give Ball 2-3 weeks.

Whats Brooklyns record right now with almighty D.Lo? 4 and fukking 7....

Let that nikka go, he's not coming back and we made the right decision

 

[ALonelyDad]

BI took only 8 shots? lol.

All of that is just justification not denial. The vets are a part of the team too

I don't think you understand just how bad this nikka is right now.
You nikkas keep saying that Lonzo will be ight the shots will fall eventually, but this nikka is literally the worst shooter of all time... AND ALL OF HIS SHOTS ARE WIDE OPEN. And it's not just open 3s he's missing the nikka can't hit layups either. nikkas try to shyt on D'Lo but he was never anywhere near as bad as this nikka. Hell, Smush Parker was never anywhere near as bad as this bum ass nikka.

The problem with Lonzo's mechanics is that when he gets in a funk it's hard to just simplify his shot the basics when everything is out of wack about his shot.

 

[Regular_P]

Gary Harris shot 30% his rookie year. Stop with the overreaction like Ball doesn't have a track record of good shooting.

The NBA is a different ball game. The defensive timing is so swift that bad mechanics get found out quick. Defenses do not give you time to bring the ball across the body. He can't take jumpers in paint because his release point is so low. He can't make free throws because his form takes him of balance. Another concerning isuue is that his form probably isn't healthy for the left knee (the one that is always in a knee brace). If he does not change his mechanics he will never be a competent shooter in the NBA.

You calling FG% bad when everything else is damn near good for a rookie

Idgaf about his shot as much as I care about his rebounds, defense, blocked shots, culture change, and assists.

If you think he's a bad player after 12 games because he's shooting poorly then take your ass to the sorry ass Nets thread and continue to dikkride Russell who still is the exact same player he was in the past 2/3 years.

fukk D.lo.. How he on another team with a worser record in a weaker conference and you nikkas still dikkriding him

D'angelo rookie season even with all the shackles on him>>>>>>>>Lonzo rookie season so far

we traded away a superior player to make room for the inferior player, how was it the right decision?

anyways, on another note, Im glad we finally have our future superstar in Ingram. three #2 picks in a role, something had to give. That's why I'm not too down with Lonzo's struggles. Kuzma and Ingram's good plays are keeping me from being depressed.

You do realize the lakers are 5 and 7...they're barely better.

Lakers maintained a .500 record fairly far into the season last year too so if someone like Lopez or Kuzma gets hurt like how Young and Russell got hurt early last year this year gonna be a wrap again

 

[Bilz]

5-7 is terrible considering how easy their schedule has been.
