Watching the BOS vs LAL game, the lakers started very well.
Most NBA stats aren't credible. At most times the people who interprets those data are biased, or the data themselves are flawed. Basketball is just too complicated with so many uncontrollable variables.

So, Laker drafted Kyle Kuzma with the 27th pick...He is a atheletic pf who can shoot 3...

Don't think Brook will fit with this kind of Laker offense...

Ball seems don't like taking shots or layups...other than that, he's pretty good. He isn't explosive but has really great vision.
He should improve his halfcourt offense.

I really don't understand why people were jumping all over this or cheering about Lonzo having a bad summer league game. Kevin Durant was garbage in his first summer league games if i recall. who cares? summer league is literally dog **** basketball, you might as well watch pick up games at a YMCA.

I think his dad is a troll and tried to do things before he had any leverage (sneaker deals) but why hate on the kid? he hasn't hurt anyone.

Kyle Kuzma, 5/10 for 3 pointers. That's why I would send RHJ to Lakers with Lopez, not the 27th pick.

well, the Nets just gifted the Celtics a future top 10 player in Tatum. someone needs to leave a steaming bag of dung outside of Billy King's house in whatever gated community he lives in.

And what if they didn't want RHJ?

You dudes kill me on here. You **** on RHJ every chance you get, but want to include him in trade packages.

Never understood the Randle hype. From the time I watched him in college, I could tell that he was a stat accumulator but not a good team basketball player. He's someone who should have the ball taken away from him so that he can learn how to be a threat off the ball.

Summer league doesn't count for anything but this is why I was baffled that he wasn't being talked about as having at least an outside shot at #1 or especially #2 like Josh Jackson and De'Aaron Fox.

I spoke highly of him in the draft thread. He can be special.

Imagine if every NBA dad is like LavaBall, what chaos! What circus!

BS might have something to do with that?
