Rondae is fukking garbage.

Holy shyt.

He needs to spend less time on basketball wives(don't ask me how I know he was on :dame:) and more time working on his touch
You can't teach touch. People drafted dude thinking he can be some hyper-athletic all-purpose defender and garbage man on offense - the dude can't do shyt on either side.

How you the 1st round pick for a trash bin like Brooklyn and they move you out the rotation after just one year? :mjlol:

Tatum will never play the 4 or the 5, he is a 100% elite scoring perimeter player who can get his shot off when he wants, he can start as a 2 or 3 RIGHT NOW but he will come off the bench for the 1st half of the season at least.

All the nikkas in this draft have ELITE abilities to score off the dribble and/or finish at the basket, wtf is wrong with Josh to u??? Dude took some bad shots but he showed the most elite scoring ability out of everybody, u tripping bruh

Its sad you even have to say this. nikkas are now delusional when it comes to positions because they have been brainwashed by this small ball bullshyt.

Jayson Tatum is a SG/SF. PERIOD. End of story.

feel like lonzo should have had like 4 more assists with how often his teammates were bricking, led to hella fouls too.

He can get his shot off when he wants against summer league players, cool. He could on Duke because you can't double team Duke, okay.

NBA is faster and not dominated by slow, midget wings that would rather foul than play real defense.

These dudes are elite scorers against Summer League comp. Yal really need to fukking chill :russ: Tierre Brown was unfukkingstoppable in Summer League. You gonna give him a call?

Its nice seeing these guys do shyt that they've been able to do at the junior level against slightly better, disorganized comp - but it doesn't erase an entire body of work up until this point. Its weird as fukk to say this as one of the guys saying that Tatum was being slept on leading into the draft but the hyperbole for all of these guys is ridiculous.

and Jackson looking like a more offensively inclined young Corey Brewer out there :dame: I never liked him before and I don't like him all over again. Playing off of Booker is the best thing to happen to him though.

The Truth
I'm not hating but Zo is really lucky to have the D League MVP Vander Blue on his team :hubie:

Vander was avg 26/5 before Zo Arrived :hubie:
They are playing against second and 3rd year cats on this nets team, some were even starting.

Blue played his best game of SL tonight honestly, but it's Zo thats having cats create all this movement, hockey passes, etc.

Lonzo couldve easily had a triple double this game. He damn near had 9 assists in the first quarter.. They slowed the offense down and they started taking away a lot of his assists with having LA make extra passes and LA missing shots.

My issues with him tonight was his lack of energy after the first and his lack of getting to the rim and finishing at the rim. Also there was a lot of confusion on the offensive end. He also missed too many freethrows but I think its his mechanics. He doesn't get low on his shots at the line, at the three, and doesn't get low on defense

But Nets were out here with cats that are supposedly starting trying to play Lonzo hard and they still loss

His offense is tired.. . im tired of him tripping over himself everytime with the ball.. His defense isnt bad at all tho... He was never out of the rotation.. He started at the 4 alot last year

Harsh realities breh...they function in the same manner. Hustle wings that can rebound, can't space the floor, and can't really do shyt with the ball.
When RHJ takes the worst defense in the league and makes it a top 10 one every time he steps on the court, you let me know.

"He's a hustle player :skip:"

I think he's just gassed. The coach out here playing him for whole quarters and shyt. I know everyone wants to see the DSJ match up but honestly I would sit him out for that game. If the Lakers advance to the finals then bring him back, if not then salute to a good SL.

Booker came off the bench.. Rhj started at the 4 after the all star break
what i'm sayin is, dude is garbage and only played because the nets had nothing but trash filling their roster from top to bottom.

only reason RHJ even started was to play off of Lopez anyways since Lopez stopped giving a fukk about rebounding completely
