Please refrain from comparing anyone on this forum to LaVar Ball. It's too harsh.

But seriously, poor Lonzo. Must be shower having a parent that makes you look bad before you're even in the league. Also, has anyone actually watched the kid play? Ugliest jump shot I've seen since Noah but it somehow goes in?! :o

Simmons and Co were discussing if that jump shot is going to be a problem, the way he pauses and hitches it and whether it allows defenders in the pros to shut him down, consensus  was maybe, but you can probably work the hitch out

The jump shot looks so bad but pretty effective. I do think he has some help playing at UCLA who are stacked with 3 point shooters and 2 brilliant big men. Still an amazing talent and his size just makes him better. I don't want people to fail once making the NBA but just imagine if he didn't live up to the hype. LaVar will be locking himself in a basement and we won't hear from him again

I want him to either a) Come to the Lakers and be amazing or b) Go somewhere else and not be amazing. I have a slight bias though...

Well if Lonzo fails he's still got two other sons to jump on haha

Cavs to add Deron and Bogut, man that team is stacked now with depth. All credit to Griffin for making so many savvy trades.

Deron
Shump, Korver, RJ, Williams
Bogut, Frye


Yes they got lucky with some high end buyout guys but that's why you have to be smart building a team, so you can reap those rewards - Just like the Warriors getting West and Zaza on the cheap. Looking forward to another awesome finals matchup

I like the bogut pick, Deron is trash and not sure how he will fit without the ball in hands, he could work up nice two man game with Tristan as he is still good running pnr, i guess the real benefit is in them being able to rest lebron/irving down the stretch

All said and done though

Durant still beats Korver/deron/bogut

Also looks like dubs get Calderon - I reckon Houston loom as a massive threat though, if they are going tohit 20 threes a night then you are going ot need to out gun them

Embiid out indefinitely. That makes me sad

So Embiid may miss the rest of the season, Simmons is out for the season, Noel traded for peanuts. Is The Process falling apart?
