Yup easily the best player on the court so far in the 1st half.

Looked like a man amongst boys against a very stout Toronto front line.......offensively. He is so quick and skilled, it's pretty easy for him.

He still needs to get stronger and move better defensively IMO. But the guy is going to be a player.


yea i saw some highlights and his stroke, touch and straight line drives look good. His range looks to have gotten longer as well, but that doesn't tell me much about his rebounding and defense.

Can definitely see the weight gain.

It's actually kind of gross how much the announcers are trying to make Ball look good right now.

I actually like the BBB shoes, they're not the best, but they're better than a lot of recent basketball shoes I've seen.

man ball has been great with his passing, but does he know how to dribble into the paint, or score or shoot or anything like that

He's obviously been working on the same path that AD did. He's added some offensive moves, and made a lot of aggressive drives with short one handed push shots. Very similar to what AD does.

I don't question at all his scoring. But I think he's too athletic not to protect the rim better. Took AD a while too, so we'll see.

Feel bad for Lonzo, away games are going to be rough, even here which is essentially a home game he's getting heckled a possession afterward.
