Only 4 pages? I had to watch it taped. But now that I watched, woo... glad to see them get the win when that was arguably Lonzo's biggest learning game. He did struggle in half-court situations, but that is due to experience. He has so much attainable growth left on offense that it's scary just how good he will become. His form is gonna whoop his own ass in posting up. He gonna have to rework that form for sure on the post. He will need to use it a lot with his passing ability and size advantage as a point.

actually i think his form favors the dirk shot in the post and his ft's looks like a normal persons form. just anytime he runs right that shot is hard to pull off with the D on that side of his body

What is this Lonzo vs Russell crap anyways? Lonzo would have been the PG and Russell the SG. Stop comparing them. It's like OKC fans comparing Westbrook with Harden. At the end of the day, it would have been better to have both on your team.

I'm still a lil concerned that Lonzo is going to have trouble in the half court when teams start to make him finish. A lot of the times, the summer league scrubs leave their man when Lonzo drives, but not sure that happens in the NBA when he gets scouted. But I think Lonzo is a smart enough player to be able to adjust, just might take some time.

I hate to put a lot of stock in the Summer League, but I've seen enough to say my fears have been alleviated. Lonzo is the real deal.

After 4 summer league games, i can kinda see where the Jason Kidd comparisons are coming from. On the other hand, I don't think that Kay Felder knows that PGs are supposed to pass the ball..............

A floater going to his right was nice to see, needs to perfect that. He needs a post shot too to take advantage of smaller guys.

Are Lonzo and Fox the only TRUE point guards in this class? Everyone else seem like a combo guard tbh.

Man I was so hesitant when we selected Ball (I wanted Josh Jackson). But I am so 100% glad Magic did the correct thing and took Ball.

Ball is the real deal. I am so excited for our future.

Lonzo is tearing up the summer league record book
USA Celtics in full effect. Amazing chemistry building experience right there for the main core of the team


Proceeds to finish 7th and shames the entire nation!

You think wade could be had for deng, clarkson, and zu?
Depends on how the Bulls are shaping their future. Common sense says the Bulls would take it seeing as they're not contending for anything so Deng's salary wouldn't be an ankle weight. JC and Zu gives them a couple of youthful pieces to build on. I would only take Wade if he came here and not try to inject himself deep into our process. As long as he just tried to be a vet that accepts he doesn't have long to play it would work.

then we lucked out, we don't neeed another shot first point guard, we need a true floor general to get everyone involved in the offense.

balls been unreal so far, as fans were lucky to have him and same goes for his team mates. I love the fact that hes getting so much attention with his passing and playing style other PG's are probably jealous seeing hes getting all the attention in SL...and fact of the matter is with passing BBIQ you have it or you dont. you cant teach or practice this instinct.
