Hey if they can wait half a decade for Embiid to get half a season of play I can wait a couple of summer league game before hitting the panic button.

There was a guy that went number 1 with some marked weaknesses in the draft...namely no jumpshot..his name was Simmons.

But Lonzo doesn't have a bad shot.

One bad night doesn't erase the fact that he shot well over 50% FG in college. He was consistent in college. Why does one bad summer league game make him a poor inconsistent shooter from a neutral observer? I don't get it. I have to tell you under that kind of pressure around him...not many people would perform that well. This guy is getting tons of attention...and he's in a franchise where that attention gets magnified 100x more.

All he needs to do is loosen up really and he'll have a far better game imo.


We were waiting for a generational type talent though. Lonzo is not that. I do think he will be fine though.

Fox is looking good, even hitting some jumpers.

he can't really shoot though so it isn't a real surprise.

I'd say defensively he's better than advertised (and defensively he was rated very very good).

Josh Jackson has a terrible shot off the dribble. No follow through. Gonna shoot a lot of air balls because he short arms half his shots.
