With Zion and Reddick and Jrue too there, if he can stay healthy, I expect him to lead the league in assists.

YEah I think he'll have a very good season, he's very talented after all. LA wasn't meant for him because of all the **** he had to go through thanks to his moronic father.

Re: Expectations for Lonzo Ball this Season
that jumper is a small sample size but it did look improved, what i want to see from him is
his free throw percentage getting better, because he was apprehensive about driving and finishing because of his poor free throw shooting last year if memory serves

He should get a lot of assists running the court with Zion.

Re: Expectations for Lonzo Ball this Season
It's going to be petty funny if Lonzo becomes a favorite on this place. I would love to see the mental Gymnastics by many on that one.
Ive always been a fan of his and still am. I think he is in the perfect place. Plenty of lob threats, should be a very fast pace team, the starters may lack shooting but the bench is stacked with it. I think he could battle for the assist lead this year and have very low turnovers to go with it.
His FT%is garbage and I expect that to be the same. But he did go from 30% to 33% from 3 from year 1 to 2. If he can make another 3% jump and get to 36% to go with his facilitating and defense. Dude can be a stud.
Still think the LA/Pels trade was a win win for both sides. LA got their superstar to go with Lebron and Pels got 2 really good young prospects that fit perfect with what they're doing.

BECAUSE of Jrue he wont lead the league in assist for sure.
I think his stats stay pretty much the same with some slightly improved %

Re: Expectations for Lonzo Ball this Season
I’ve always liked his game so I don’t have to be a hypocrite to like it in New Orleans. I think he’ll flourish in their fast paced system.
It’s Ingram that I’m skeptical of, but I’m not counting him out just yet.

I expect him to eat a lot of Salami, that's my guess.

As someone else alluded to, I just want a healthy season for him. He'll be good enough to produce starter level stats at a minimum if he stays healthy.
Rest in peace Mamba. There'll never be another Kobe.

Re: Expectations for Lonzo Ball this Season
I think he plays a lot better this year because the game will become fun again outside the LAL clown show. I still think his offense will always be an issue, and while he may become a meh set 3PT shooter (Which is an improvement) he likely never improves enough at the line or finishing in traffic to really max his passing. He has always been good on defense and that should continue. Holiday / Ball, if they can play on offense together, can really be a great defensive duo.
No reason the Pels cant make the playoffs. I am a Blazers fan and think that team could beat us on any given night. Really underrated talent base, albeit maybe lacking a bench guy who can create for himself.
