The eye test never fails. He did not pass the eye test. Not even close. About a 2/10.

Also..rare mistake by them.. But Thornwell shouldve stayed with the Spurs. He'd be their starting SG by December. Kid can play. He's an old school, YMCA hooper. 12 year pro

She's doing the biased spinning too..."he looks like a guy who hasn't played a basketball game for 3 months" - ummm...neither has anyone else!!... Omg - is the media is going to "speak" Lonzo to the MVP in spite of the worst stats and team record in the league? It's like they all have a directive already

sure he does.. he could have told his dad to stfu many times... but refused to do it.. he brought this on himself

Surprising I haven't seen a Lavar Ball edited with Crying Jordan face in here so far. :lol:

Must be the web restrictions in the office.

He seems to be completely subservient to his wishes. I don't know all the details of their relationship, obviously, but to me it seems like Lonzo is totally incapable of standing up to LaVar, which is just the way LaVar likes it and planned it, I assume. Probably the same with the other 2 kids.

He shouldn't be afraid or subservient to his father. He should be able to tell him how he feels. It's his life and his NBA career-not his fathers.

Ball is going to make Jackson look good, and that is sad.

I'd love to thank Laver for forcing Lonzo to LA now we get Fox

Not gonna sell a lot of overpriced shoes shooting 2-15. Can't crumble under the bright lights of a summer league game either.

Daaaang were people calling simmons a turd when he went 2-9 in his debut. I'm really not concerned after one summer game. Fultz wasn't exactly spectacular going 6-19 himself in one summer game. I thought Ball had a bad game. There were a couple of plays when he went around his man and looked like he had an easy bucket but decided to pass instead. That to me just shows it's all mental for him right now.

But the main issue is that we played real slow. The game dragged because there were tons of foul calls.

The issue with Ball is that his game isn't really about scoring. I was expecting like 10 points today and what I got was surprisingly worst. I thought he made some good passes out there however. But he's definitely got to get use to the NBA.

As for Ingram, 26 points should be the norm for him going forward. In the regular season I expect that to drop down a little to say, 22ppg. Ingram is really going to grow this season, especially since he is on a young team.

Who will dominate?
