Nigga took the glasses off 😂😂😂
TBAGUCCI Everytime a black person says the N word a white supremacist smiles and gets their wings.
TBAGUCCI 😂😂😂
Oh lawd!
TBAGUCCI 😭😭😭😭
Smh...and magic got rid of d lo smh..he bettter show up
I feel like Stephen A. put glasses on just to take them of drastically 😅😅
Dramatically you mean
Max Kellerman: "Celtics have no bench" 2 days later *Celtics beat a playoff team without irving, horford, and hayward after trailing by 18 points*
Ben Scanlan good coaching..
Ben Scanlan it's all fake for the hype
Ben Scanlan the whole concept of one player carrying a team is so overblown. These days most players are good and at least contribute to wins. Acting like one guy wins it all is just media sensationalising so they can sell a jersey and market someone.
ouchy!
celtics where the second best playoff team in the east that doesnt mean nothing they shouldve won
Sas. " who's good
Max. "Lonzo ball"
Sas. "Oh Lord
🤣😂 dying
Bro I’m crying rn
That hairline is starting to scare me Stephen A
Dude!! I cracked up when I read ur comment😁😁
💀
💀💀
💀💀💀
Lol
The Celtics have a fine bench. They're problem is injuries, not bench depth. Morris or Baynes, and Tatum would all be on the bench if Horford and Gordon were healthy. And even so, our two best players in last nights game were rotation pieces. Baynes and Smart. Rozier is really good too.
thank you! i jus commented the same thing and all of these bandwagon fans are talking shit
tatum would be starting either way. but everything else is right
Yeah idk what Max is talking about. The Lakers have one of the highest scoring benches in the league. I knew once their bench would come in they’d get back in the game. They’ve done that all year.
I agree, he knows more about lonzos brother than he does the celtics, the celtics bench is the best its been in a long time if the team is healthy including gordon, even with the rookies, they play hard and you never know whos gunna hurt you on either end of the floor.
Smart comment. Most likely Morris would be the #1 scorer off the bench, with Baynes, Smart, Rozier, Ojeleve. That is not Golden State, but it is better than 90% of the rest of the NBA's benches. Plus fully healthy you could always sprinkle in a little Kyrie or Hayward with the 2nd unit.
Yo when Max said Lonzo’s brother is sitting in a Chinese jail, I felt that😭
Max was right. Lonzo actually does everything else good. Look at what he’s doing now.
Exactly
He isn’t leaving up to be number two pick imagine if the lakers got Tatum with LeBron and AD that’s what I have against him
11 6 7 40fg% that’s ight not good enough for number 2 pick.
@@keishlamontes2190 You mean living, right? Moron. lmao
@@keishlamontes2190 they wouldn’t have ad because they had to trade Lonzo and Ingram to get him but I know what ur sayin
I've watched every single Laker game because I really want to see Lonzo succeed. But I do have to say he looks like he's playing scared. A lot of pressure on the kid though, hard to believe he's only 19-20 years old. That being said he's gotta get some fire in his stride or else he will end up being a bench player.
Heizman he's game is improving game by game... I'm not impressed with his career night in phoenix... Suns just makes him look great that game.... but the most important thing is he's slowly picking it up...look at his game against the Wizards today... he's getting the rhythm... now talkung bout his form.. not concerned at all... he'll find his shooting touch soon
Heizman D'Angelo Russell looks like a steal for the nets
Heizman Just say 20 because that's what it is...dude 20
Tbh I think the same thing it's soooo much pressure then u gt idiots that want him to fail I hope he break out of this and soon
Heizman people thought Kobe was a bust until his 2nd year
When SAS took off the glasses I knew it was a gg for max
Yeah it was over at that moment. We knew it. Max knew it. Lonzo definitely knew it. When he used the word "impotent" to describe his offense...
it's just TH-cam that
What does gg mean ?
Joshua Fitzroy good game
Admir Tonuzi thanks fham appreciate that
I have more change in my pocket than Lonzo has points in any game, and I'm broke
b1bbs g0t h4nds your dumbass does know he scored 29 in one game right ?
and I got 30 cents in my pocket. your point?
b1bbs g0t h4nds w as f 😂😂😂😂
b1bbs g0t h4nds just scored 19 and got a triple double you fucking goon
Alex Cramer L
“I think his daddy put him in the lions pit with some pork chop draws on.” -Snoop Dogg
is he a bust? have to wait till the season ends. is he overrated? yes. is it early as fuck? yes. Will he get better? we'll see.
totally agree
Kuzma is Lakers best rookie. That sums it up
Joe M yah no, Lonzo, kuzma, randle, ingram best players, in that order
Joe M he is 19 years old let him develop
KND Clan you slow? He said best rookie. Ingram and Randle are not rookies
KND Clan it’s not that serious lol
He's 20 already. But still young. And he's not an offense player. He's a playmaker.
1:02 “BURN!” (Kelso voice)😂
He asked "WHO"? and the took his glasses off. I was done 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Glasses are off = STFU max 😂😂😂😂😭😭😭😭
Lmao !
ohmanyourecool lmao
Yall crazy lol
💀😭W
ohmanyourecool corny as hell
I don't like Stephen A. Smith, but he is right... Lonzo is not looking good, and it's more than just his stats. For a point guard that's supposed to invigorate his team, his play is too passive. People are going to come at him because of his loudmouth father, but he has to at least show more aggression in his playstyle.
oacevedo81 I️ agree with this💯
I just don't like stephen a smith, he's such a jerk
0:49 "The Celtics have no bench" oh really?
1:37 the beginning of Stephen A. Smith's "Lonzo Ball is starting to scare me" lol
ESPN is Lonzo balls biggest problem. This is one of the Celtics fans booed him last night. Lonzo Wednesday on ESPN give me a freaking break
It's not the fact that he's a bust it's the fact that everyone in his class is performing well!
summer18 everyone in his class is performing well !! And he's a Bust!! I just wanted to clear that up for YOU SON!!!
Max was waaaaaaaaaaay ahead of everyone else with his predictions
“Glasses are off” 😂😂😂
Yoooo no lie, what THE H E C K are you saying Max. "Even when the ball isn't falling he's still good" 😑😑 Stephen a smith got me dying with his reaction🤣
lonzo become youngest player in NBA history to record a triple double...i guess Max was right...but Stephen A. trashes Lonzo because his dad called Stephen A out on his bullshit, now Stephen A. is making it personnel.. Stepehn A is a joke..
conni70 stfu bitch what you gotta say now
Zo reminding me of Austin Rivers. There was so much hype surrounding him and I kept hoping he would breakout into a star for us, but he just wasn't special . I hope I'm wrong about Zo tho
great point
JK lmao the only reason he got a contract is because his dad is the coach
yep Austin Rivers 2.0
tonedog77 so you wouldnt have drafted him with the last pick based of his college performance ? Since your saying he doesnt he father got him into the nba
Lonzo Ball this season amongst rookies :
PTS(11th)
AST (2nd)
REB(3rd)
STL(4th)
BLKS(2nd
Stephen A. was 100% on spot
"He might be distracted"
IT still performed after his sister passed away
I wont' say he is a bust but they are too much rookies performing better than him
Zurajanai Katsurada points wise that's it. No one has this much pressure as well.
You can't call Lonzo a bust yet, but you can definitely say he's AWFUL right now. His age doesn't negate how bad he's been doing. He can't shoot, he can't drive, can't hit free throws. Those are legitimate flaws that don't change overnight. He shot 4/15 last night FFS. ESPN needs to stop hyping this kid, at least do it when he starts hooping.
It's really the fault of the hype.
Nigga yes yu can!!!! In 11 games EVEEY ROOKIE is better than him! He is TRASH!
YRN TJ you forgot to mention he can't play defense. I'll reserve judgment until year 2.5 or 3, but it's not looking too good right now
His team does better when he's on the court though.
Lavar and social media are hyping him. Half of ESPN has predicted that he'd suck (so far). Let's point the finger at the right people here.
That “oh lord” by Steven A. Had me dying
Its very interesting to watch this 3 years later
0:24 Kyrie is not putting up Westbrook/Harden type stats Max, chill.
Eshaan K but bring Ws while Westbrook shooting just as bad 🤔😴😴
exactly its all about W's
Kyrie is making his teammates better, and that's why they're on a 10 game winning streak.
Kyrie is not putting up Westbrook/Kyrie/Lebron* type stats. Oh and KD. And AD & cousins. Even Antetokoumnpo and Porzingis.
Sipo Elminster and Steph
i mean i said before the draft he dont look aggressive and doesnt have a killer instinct but its way to early to call him a bust however lakers fans should be a bit worried
LegendaryEA I’m a laker fan and I’m not worried about shit. It’s literally 11 games into the season. If you looked at brandon ingram last year you’d say the same thing as this year with lonzo. It takes time breh
He just needs to fix his shoot .
BronZ Ingram is still bad
all he needs is to fix his shot.If and when he changes it, he will gain more confidence and thus produce more.
I couldn't believe they got rid of deangillo Russel like trash n now balling for nets,they held him back n LA
at 4:44 Stephen sounds like the Elmur Fudd cartoon character.... We're vewwy wewwy. LOL !!
I agree @stephenASmith.... I was thnking about this a few games ago...
No bench? wtf dude, they have a top 3 bench in the league, just because nobody's heard of the Celtics bench players doesn't mean they're bad. Theis is a beast, Ojele has been playing great recently, Smart is a stud on defense, Rozier is also a great all around PG, Baynes has been terrific... Take this L Max
Tvrtko Krizan Lol. There are only a handful of "beasts" in the NBA and Theis isn't one of the them...
to compete in the playoffs....reg season vs playoffs...boston was the 1 seed last year
Yes celtics bench is underrated but morons think otherwise
Theis is alright but not a beast tbh
Tvrtko Krizan watching u argue these sub par players and calling them a top 3 bench is so cute. They’re a top 15 bench bro, you’re reaching
Lonzo ball: "if you ain't with us now don't be with us later..... We gone figure it out" STRAIGHT FACTS.
NBA Expert Miss me with that! He allowed the hype to carry him and thought he was gonna carry him through. NOPE! The regular season hit and the league came out guns blazing against him and the Lakers. All of these other rookies understood what was coming once the regular season came around. For Max's sake, and the sake of all of the other devoted Lonzo fans, he better hope that his predictions are accurate. Otherwise, it's gonna be a LOOOOOONG season for a certain basketball team in Los Angeles, and I ain't talkin' about the Clippers.
Brent Foster ????? Lonzo never said shit... His dad did....... Yall just mad bc lavar be sayin shit and then trashing lonzo....
Anthony Bennett probably said the the same thing
NBA Expert Back to the rim centers that can't run and shoot and pass only point guards that can't score and shoot are dinosaurs. The game has passed Okafor and Lonzo by
I bet you still waiting for Hasheem Thabeet and Anthony Bennett to 'figure it out' too
At the 4:42 mark, SAS does his Elmer Fudd impression when he says "Steven A., weer werry worried" Buahahahaha!
Doesn't matter what development stage the kid is at. He's filling seats. That being said, the novelty will eventually wear off, and he will hopefully have improved.
Lonzo go be somewhere on the bench in 4 years.. MICHAEL CARTER WILLIAMS 2.0
carter williams is better than him
what is
Jason Smith Jr. 😂😂😂😂why everybody trying to see bro fail I’m don’t watch basketball so I’m curious wouldn’t u want to see rookies be great so they make the league exciting in the future defly he’s on your favorite team
Funfun6000 bro. If you know who his daddy is and what he was doing... You'll understand
Jason Smith Jr. ofc I know his father but what that got to do with everybody calling him a busy
BIG BUST BALLER
you better trademark that bro
Isiah Thomas played lights out the day after his sister was killed. Lonzo can’t say he’s got that big of an issue with his brother in a Chinese jail.
I've never noticed how old max looks now. Man, such respect for this man growing up watching him on HBO. Amazing analyst
It's totally fine to have an unusual style when shooting the ball, as long as it goes in. This kid has got some serious fundamental shooting flaws , that if he can't or won't fix, will relegate him to warming the bench.
Magic Johnson picked lonzo ball and Michael Jordan picked kwame brown. Great players don’t necessarily see great talent.
You can tell they decided what opinion to have before today's show.
"Ok I'll be for him, you be against him"
Joe Congdon they do every topic lol
all for clicks too
Joe Congdon lmao yeah it makes sense
"Who's good" "who's good?" ..... "Oh Lord" *proceeds to take of glasses*..... LMAO!!!
Every time I want to criticize Lonzo I always remember, the kid is YOUNGER THAN ME. Even with the talent he's shown, my god as of now, being about the same age (like 8 months older) I wouldn't know what I would do under this kind of pressure. Judge him all you want but try and remember, at the end of the day, he's still just a kid.
justin a; Facts, Salute ✌
justin a a kid being paid millions to do a job he can't do, it's showtime....
Chris Santana yea but he's in a unique situation. He's the most hated player in the NBA and he's a kid man. Pay him trillions that fact and the pressure doesn't change. You think you could thrive in that kind of pressure?
Britt T you do realize every NBA players is paid millions but not every NBA player is an all star. U make no sense he's a rookie he's contract was made for him he hasn't discussed money or made a deal because he can't money has nothing to do with this. That's like saying if the more you pay a player the better he gets. I don't get why your so caught up in money it just makes you sound jealous. Try being happy for people's success for once.
justin a ain't the question, Ball ain't shit right now, maybe he gets better, there are middle school kids right now with more game than Ball, Lakers should have kept D'lo, even though he is a snitch, he got way more heart and game than weak ass Lonzo....
It's only 10 games 😂😂😂😂
Emmanuel James and he hasn't done shit in any of them... 0pts 4ast vs Portland, horrible.
Lonzo Bust
Emmanuel James actually 11
Nicholas Langenbau it's funny too because he only had 1 good game
Yea, and people were hyping him more then Kobe.
He's right though, Lakers fans keep telling yourselves whatever you want to tell yourself but kuzma should be starting.
Its obvious that you are not watching lakers games. Kuzma has been starting for a while now.
Triple double folks!! Classic case of stagefright from a 19yo..that's all.. Lonzo gon take over
Kuzma and Clarkson should be the starting guards no doubt
I'm conflicted on Lonzo... I believe he has the potential to be an all star and be one of the main guys on the team but I don't think he can be THE guy on the team. I think he'd be a great role player like JR. I feel he can be like a second tier star such as Klay is to Steph and KD. Again I just don't think he can be the central guy because all the attention is trained on him and he is crumbling. For that I feel is the reason why Kuzma is impressing the public more than Lonzo because he doesn't have the weight of the media and fans on his shoulders. Lonzo needs to learn to find the aspect of his game that fits him best because he was able to do everything in high school. In college he was facing a lot of non NBA talent and many of the ones that did give him a bit of trouble didn't even get drafted. He's in the NBA against experienced veterans that have been in the league longer than 4 years which he isn't used to. He's used to being the one in control of the floor but now he's getting a rude awakening to the fact that he can't be the star anymore. I wish him all the success and best but he's not in high school anymore. He was hyped up by his father, the media, and the public but they have to realize he is human too and not treat him like the second coming of Christ. This is probably the only time I will semi-agree with Stephen because as it's looking right now, he is working towards being a bust and needs to change that before it is too late.
Maaannn sas took odf his glasses 😂😂😂 he seemed so done 😂
"Oh lord" 😂😂😂 my mans took the glasses off
Lonzo is up there with the greats like Anthony Bennett and Kwame Brown
merti5 bruuuh 😭😭😭
Lol damn that's cold
merti5 not even close! He got a triple double ALREADY
charles bush and still not averaging 10 in anything, shit at the rate he continues not even field goal percentage
merti5 scientific analysis.
When he took off his glasses 😂😂
Regardless if he turns out to be a bust or not, he’ll still be on the list of youngest players to ever record a triple double and I think that’s a good achievement.
Anyone notice how Kevin Duran always faking injuries in the season so he can be well rested for the playoffs!
Kyra Petty i don't think it works like that lol
Kyra Petty lmao
if KD does it, Bron is the King of it lmao
Hang on, are playoffs next week?
ya they stole the idea from lebrons playbook and he stole it from the spurs etc. etc. lol
i love kyrie but do not downplay westbrook and hardens seasons last year by saying kyrie 22 a game is equal to a 30 points triple double seasons max
Gio bandito Westbrook was the 6th seed and harden was the 3rd. Kryire 1st
im talking about the numbers because max said westbrook harden type numbers, i know the team is gonna have probably a better record especially in the east
Kyrie's numbers are almost identical to Kemba's this season. Kyrie has the edge on steals, but everything else is a wash. Yeah, Kyrie's team has a much better record, but he's got twice as much help as Kemba has. So I agree, saying his numbers are Harden and Westbrook numbers isn't accurate.
Raheem Phillips in the West, Kyrie in the Eastern conference
Raheem Phillips Don't even compare Kyrie to them because he isn't ever near that level.
I completely agree with Stephen if this was anyone else he would be unknown. The other rookies are light years away.
How about that Celtic bench in the playoffs?
Im actually happy SAS thinks Lonzo is a bust coz When I think back to what he said about KP, I cant take anything he says seriously. Wish someone wuld do a video on the stuff SAS said about KP.
Maxwell J.M Dlamini there are lots of videos of that
exactly, this is the dude that trashed porzingis lol, probably also trashed curry and many more, 11 games in, just judge it at the end of the season, if him and his team suck all season, then you can start the bust conversation lol
Maxwell J.M Dlamini. To be fair he trashed porzingis before he even saw the him play. He has seen lonzo and so far he's been bad
First time I hope Max is wrong.
Mahdi Knicks Why?
Mahdi Knicks
Don't worry, he is wrong. Only reason why he's saying all these nice things about Lonzo is because he doesn't want to have Lavar as an enemy. Its just fear talking, anybody can see that Lonzo is trash.
Monk and Fox representing Kentucky sooooo well. Proud of those boys.
Wow watching this 2 years later. Stephen A was spot on.
12,7,7 ain’t so bad
@@jaybruhh_6472 not Bad if you are a lottery pick. He was 2. pick
@@lutzismail7874Yes, that what a “bust” is.
@@DrivenA111 which I didnt argue about. for a no.2 pick he is definitely a bust
Lol I’m starting to see bust . That shit hella funny
Ant Live max smarted smilling and got whacked with the bust lol
KYRIE IRVING IS NOT PUTTING UP WESTBROOK/HARDEN NUMBERS! STOP SAYING THAT PEOPLE!!!
K1LLF33DL4G he's more clutch than both and he has more rings that both. Case closed.
Don't matter about numbers, he's making his team win to the number one spot in the east. If you can't lead your team to win, than your numbers don't matter.
William Garcia Kyrie is not on those guys level........period........he has a ring because he played with LeBron.......everyone knows this......Kyrie is a good offensive player......good shooter great ball handler......Russell and Harden are levels above him......check the numbers
William Garcia he has a ring because of LeBron, I love Kyrie but I have never seen someone carry a team the way Westbrook did last year. Kyrie has worse numbers than he did last year😂
brand2 If you pick Kyrie over either one of those guys you definitely don't wanna win.......Brad Stevens would pack Kyrie's bags for him if either one of those teams would trade harden or Westbrook straight up for Kyrie......be serious bro
Dude gonna be the next Rajon Rondo, cant shoot but will start cause of the little x factors he provides.
MrSidwell1451 True, but Rondo lucked out being around 3 hall of famers. Like I'm imagining current Rondo bouncing from team to team. That'd be disappointing.
Richard Kassner yeah he's definitely rondo because he'll need 3 more superstars on his team if he plans to ever win a champ
LONZO IS GONNA BE FINE
I have to agree with Max.
562Omar I have to disagree with you & Max
Lonzo should of been a 2nd round pick
Word
I'm gonna have to look back at his year at the end of the regular season. He definitely has to work on his shot.
Max Kellerman, this guy brings the word "stupid" into another level.
People love to watch people fail 💀💯 this shit crazy WE NOT EVEN HALF WAY INTO THE SEASON
Jofundy Shut up he's a bust
Jofundy Fr, we ain’t even 1/8th of the way through the season, but Lonzo still isn’t looking too good out there
Ready for love Ready for war & who did lonzo ball disrespect?!👀
Ready for love Ready for war That was his dad not Lonzo, so what are you talking about
TheGlassEffect shut yo bitchassup
You know he wore glasses just to put them off lmao
D Ravines Lhfh deadass
When he took them glasses off!!!!!!!!
Lonzo ball the first YOUNGEST PLAYER EVER IN NBA HISTORY TO SCORE A TRIPPLE DOUBLE
Lonzo needs a haircut
Chucky Justice for real yo....he's looking like Ronald McDonald with that goofy ass haircut
He needs s face makeover while he’s at it.
If i remember correctly, he’s either getting braids, or he’ll cut it. He was hooping without that hair in UCLA and in Chino Hills
Chucky - why?
No you just need hair.
Kyrie Irving is putting up Westbrook type numbers? What the fuck is Max talking about?
bkmtf right kyrie is averaging like 22 and 5 what is max talking about
King Nana Gaming Max is smokin that ooooweeeee!!!!! 22 and 5 is far from both those guys lol.........Kyrie is a 2nd tier pg.......like Kyle lowry..,...Kemba Walker.......etc. All that fancy shit doesn't add up to anything but oooohs and aaaaahs.......he's not on Westbrook or Harden or Curry's level.... period
Neil Ft oohs and ahhs.. and also W's
Lmao this was when they said the Celtics “have no bench.”
"The celtics dont have a bench"- Max Kellerman
''putting westbrook/harden numbers''. I mean I actually like Kyrie a lot and the celtics are winning yes but he really isn't having that good of a season the team is playing great and so is he but 22/5/3 on 45% and 32% aren't spetacular numbers... like doesn't Max even check the player's stats before saying dumb stuff? Again I don't disagree that the Celtics are very good right now and Kyrie is also but his individual season isn't really much to talk about I would say what it proves to me is that Stevens is by far the best coach in the eastern conference, as I've felt he was for the past 2 years
I mean 19 points on 7/21 and 0/7 for 3 and you use that game to proof he's having a sensatonal year??? Come on now
I thought the same thing his numbers are the same from Cleveland.
FR
Exactly people are talking about Kyrie like he's having a MVP type season. The Celtics are just playing excellent team basketball
Da Truth Cleveland he avg 25
But when was Stephen A Smith ever right about anything?
When he talks about the Cowboys
John Doe
He said Porzingis will be an all star after he was wrong about him on draft day. Give him a little credit.
Never been right about anything. He's a loud troll
Damn through the years of me being a super casual fan of the show, his right have tremendously outweighed his wrong calls. Let's give SAS some credit here, just because he was wrong about KP (like the rest of us because there was nothing on the dude) and might be on Lonzo doesn't discredit his great career as an analyst. And that meme on TH-cam needs context lol, Ray Allen saved LeBron's legacy back in those finals.
John Doe .. Today !!!
I really agree on SAS on this one
I live in LA and get to see the kid play every game- he can play defense, he can pass, he can rebound but so far his shooting sucks lots of air balls and most of all he has so many free paths to the basket and he will not attack the basket and go for it but he will pass up a free shot to someone else who is father away from the basket. He is very timid, mild mannered and his passing is awesome but needs to drive to the basket more and his shooting is in his head now as there are lots of air balls.
Kyrie didn't even play that well. He had 19 Points on 7-21 shooting. That's not good.
The End Is Near but he's no rook and a champion. We know what he can do on this level but what about lonzo?
I don't understand how some of you are saying he's good! You people are unquestionably blind. I've watched every single Lakers game so far and his performance is certainly appalling. He looks very underdeveloped and terrified to play. He shouldn't start. He needs time to get better and eventually become less nervous. Plus, can you imagine his fucking dad?
Too soon to say the guy is a bust!
I agree. I can't imagine the stress and colossal expectations he's going through right now.
Jonathan Gliniak how many PG put up a triple double this week? 19 yo Lonzo did
I don’t even understand how any player who showed they are capable of playing basketball at a high level suddenly becomes a bust and disappears (apart from injury). Where is Anthony Bennet?? He’s no all-star, but all of a sudden he has ZERO talent?? Did he just give up on life?
Jonathan Gliniak he a rookie not Kobe y’all hold him to such a high standard with too much criticism
steven A Smith Audios are great just to make lonzo ball higlights videos.. XD XD
D'Angelo russell lookin pretty good right now lmao
Lakers fans in the beginning of the season: Let's go! Showtime Lakers back! We about to go to the playoffs this year! Lonzo the next Magic Johnson! Lonzo the GOAT! Lonzo could make the Warriors better than Steph Curry can! BELIEVE THE HYPE! STAY WOKE!
Lakers fans right now: Lonzo only a rookie. He'll get better in 5 years. We can wait for showtime. He isn't a Magic Johnson but a Jason Kidd type player.
LMFAO Dem excuses.
Lonzo > Steph Curry
GawdKobe the lakers aren't going too the playoffs😂
Omar Zamarripa L
L For LeBron W W W W W
L For LeBron two weeks ago they flipped if you said he’s rondo now they say dude rondo was a beast in prime top 3 pg lmfaooo
Jayson Tatum and Al Horford were out that's why the Lakers stayed in the game
Max either didn't watch the game or is an idiot for that.
Jayson Tatum played...what were you watching?
He didn't play the whole game, he got hit in the head or something
So ? We didn't have Lonzo Ball last night too so its kinda even.. oh wait... just got word he actually played last night.. couldnt tell cuz i cant feel his damn presence..
Lightning Thunda He was out at Halftime when the Celtics were blowing out the Lakers wtf were YOU watching?
I do agree,it may be a little early to call him a bust, but for those people making the excuse of pressure and the target on his back. You think he's the only rookie to come in targeted and with the hype machine behind him? He's still underperforming and is passive/afraid. He's going to have to change that shit in the off-season
He's definitely not a bust. The boy clearly has some exceptional skill sets in court vision and passing ability. The issue is his talent is too premature. He clearly is a project and he needs to develop his weaknesses. The problem is the Lakers needs were to draft an NBA ready talent and they got another project player.
SAS u said everybody else name excepted me what's the deal
Huncho Hendrix Uhhh I'm pretty sure this is Ben's rookie year...
Ben Simmons He’s talking about the fellow players in his draft class
Huncho Hendrix THANK YOUUU!!!
Jack Stevehill he had nba training
Take off the ed
lonzo can move fast with the ball in and outs dribbling make to the hoop floaters. he need to be more aggressive. give him carr blanche from the start or let him be like russell westbrook for a couple of possessions
Not a fan of the younger teams right now but give them 2 or 3 years of NBA eating schedules and weight training and I think they will be the new thing.
i aint worried. all they need is some cut plays. dude pass play crispy. people expect to much from him but he should be a lil better but i think its social media/pressure
Lonzo is fine. He just has to keep shooting.
Don't expect the kid to be some showboating, slam in your face, trash-talking, ball hog.
In other words, stop looking at Lonzo and seeing Lavar.
See Lonzo for who he is and has been the whole time.
yamamancha your right but that’s exactly what Stephen A was worried about when they talked to lavar in March. He told lavar he should be concerned that people are going to be wanting to have him fail because they’re trying to get at lavar.
He can't shoot 3s, mid range, free throws, and he can't drive.
YRN TJ and drive the kids to school
yamamancha Back to the rim centers that can't run and shoot and pass only point guards that can't score and shoot are dinosaurs. The game has passed Okafor and Lonzo by
He's got a shot in there somewhere. It's just sucking right now. Eventually he'll find it but right now his "shooter's roll" is about as good as mine. Give the kid a season before writing him off.
Brandon Ingram was 19 year old and was being called a bust early on ,and wasn't getting much excuses chances.
Sam Coll yeah I remember that, and now he's solid, this kind of development is kinda scary
