Even though he's not shooting well, Lonzo doesn't look overwhelmed as D'lo did in his first SL game :laugh:

Philly bouls, Trust the Process
nobody pulled up in UCLA's offense. they were shooting threes most of the time. he does have quickness. again hes only a rookie so he has time to hit the gym to get stronger and his game can improve
His quickness isn't anything special by NBA standards. He has good top speed, not quickness. His first step is pretty meh, don't be fooled by what he looks like in the open court. He can improve, but with that jumper he just can't pull up. He's got a lot of work to do. Where Lonzo is strong, he's really strong. Where he's weak though he's almost incapable and that's the terrifying part about him.

Funny to see Jud Buechler coaching. I used to root for him when I was a kid because they constantly showed Bulls games on WGN Chicago back home.

Most of the games I'd watch, it'd be the closing seconds before halftime, they'd just sub him in for that last possession. Always seemed like the play was drawn up for him to get a shot up, but something always seemed to prevent him from getting it in most of the games I watched. Even as a kid, I thought it was funny because I KNEW he wasn't going back in unless it was garbage time in a blow-out, but I always hoped he'd be able to get a little shine playing behind Jordan & Pippen.
