I think Melo will push Lonzo Ball to play better. I know he doesn’t want his little brother to come into the league and outshine him.
What’s better ?
His defense was already on trajectory to be all team .
His 3pt shooting has been great since last season.

What exactly will Melo push him to be better at?

be a more aggressive scorer.

I mean, it shouldn’t have taken him this long to be honest. If Melo averages more points than him, if I was Lonzo I would feel embarrassed. Especially since Melo is coming off the bench so far.

Post CP3 is it outrageous to say that Bridges might end up being the second best player on the Suns after Booker? :jbhmm:

His development has been nice and Ayton is looking :patrice:

It's not outrageous but I need to see sustained success. He's always been a good prespect and talent, I just need to see consistency throughout the season. So far so good. He looks like Middleton-lite out there

Let me know when that happens

Lonzo doesn't get into rhythm soon enough in the games. The type of game he has is dependent on how he starts, and BI is ball dominant, so Zo is basically just looking for catch & shoot opportunities. When he gets in the zone of being aggressive in the beginning of games, he normally plays well. It's psychological for him bc he's not comfortable enough to pick his spots yet. His confidence is based on rhythm and opportunity.

Teams will adjust once they realize Ayton's paralyzed by fear & indecisiveness.I've never seen a big shrink so much when

it comes to playing through contact & finishing inside the lane.Breh literally looks like the Cowardly Lion out there.I don't understand

it.Get that man some Diazepam or something!....And yeah, I just can't hype myself up, or rationalize a way to give kudos to this guy.

His defense has improved, but the rest of his game has fallen off.Pass up Luka Doncic and waste the #1 overall pick on a 4th option

hustle big, brehs.I'm all the way lukewarm on Ayton.I see through him.He's a con to me.Mikal Bridges salvaged that 2018 draft:wow:

They can try to adjust but then they will have to choose between leaving 3pt shooters (or Booker) wide open and the CP3-Ayton pick and roll. Plus CP3 can shoot mid range shots and make them compared to Rubio.

I don't expect Ayton to be a go to scorer. If he can be a defensive/rebounding monster with decent offense and decent 3pt shot, that's better than the majority of centers in the league.

I would rather the Suns spend money to keep Bridges and Cam Johnson.

not outrageous at all, Bridges can hit the 3 at a solid rate and can defend really well, and he’s been steadily improving

a wing that can shoot and defend is more valuable than an offensive big who is too passive to even look to score
