They have to figure out the bi and Zion issue. They don't look good on the floor together dating back to last season

:gucci: BI made his first all-star team playing the best of his entire career next to Zion, and both averaged over 22 PPG in their first and only season playing together (with no offseason and a rushed training camp for BI too considering he was recovering from having an entire rib removed all summer). The two starters that legitimately did not fit together on our team were Zo and Jrue and that's obviously not a problem anymore.

Ball’s debut was among the most impressive he didn’t score but he only played 16 minutes and played in spurts and only got 5 shot attempts he just happened to not connect. But the way he rebounded and passed and the impact he had on the team was great. He was Charlotte’s best player that game without scoring.


He's playing well right now and I see he's active on D. He has very good size

Stop talking averages and individual awards.
Last season in the games they played together it looked clunky same as tonight's game so far.

We'll see moving forward but it seems like a issue

Melo is so much better than Lonzo offensively man. I've seen Melo create more in the halfcourt in 1 and a half games than ive seen Lonzo do his laker tenure.

It looks clunky because they got spacing of a 2001 team, there is only one legitimate shooter on the floor, in 2020:picard: .

I'm not shytting on them just saying it needs to get figured out
it's gonna be hard to figure out till either the GM actually puts shooters around them, or Zion can learn to shoot. Lonzo does not get respected by defenders, they let him shoot, Bledsoe/Hart are inconsistent, really hard to operate for a player like Ingram with spacing that bad. He does much better when Melli comes in.

Team's up by 12 over the Eastern conference champs and you complaining :russ: Stop sucking off these cacalysts who jerk off to nothin but Morey ball 5 and out chuckfests and just enjoy the game man. More than one way to play basketball; I don't see Ingram or Zion struggling to put the ball in the basket with Adams out there one bit. The challenge for this team will be committing to getting better and constantly communicating on DEFENSE; Ingram and Zion's developmental hurdles are 10x more pressing on that end as opposed to what their center does on offense.
