Lonzo Ball being the 4th youngest to do it makes the list and this stat irrelevant.

i wouldn't go that far, but i will say that it shows its easier to pick up a triple double these days than it was 20-30 years ago.


that being said he also was one assist away from one last night. i think Melo gonna be something special, definitely better than Zo. he has Zo's passing already, dude will be averaging like 3 steals a game if he progresses even slightly on defense and he has Zo completely beat on boards/buckets already.

If he was on his UCLA shyt when he first got to the league, dude might still be in LA. But who knows, since clearly the Lake Show needed pieces as trade bait for the AD deal. But outside of AD and Bron (and magically Kuz), it’s been a revolving door of players these last 3 years (and obviously it has worked)

KCP and Caruso also got that Laker tenure

and by tenure i mean like 4 years.:wow:


but yeah it's crazy to me how Zo's shot fell off from UCLA to the league. it has to be a confidence issue. hate to see it. :francis:

@#1 pick you called it

#1 pick said:
Welcome to the PPP era. If you can't produce offensively, you literally have no shot. This is why Ja probably should have been #1 last year regardless of how good Zion looked in college. Luka and Trae should have went 1 and 2 in 2018 and Melo should be #1 this year. Because scoring+playmaking is leads to a lot of open high-value points, high value points actually made leads to PPP. Point per possession is the name of the game. We graduated from the school of momentum (Kobelogy), to the school of shooting and kinetics (Stephlogy) to the school of high-value points (Luka/Ja/Trae/Steph/Bron/Harden/Jokic). Scoring+playmaking is where it's at in 2020. I honestly feel like we are going back to the 80s to some degree where that was valued but truth is, it's all about the talent around the league. The league can only give you, what it produces.
