    IDK dick about playing the game and shooting but I even I can tell that from watching that clip; just going off the way he's landing his shot is way, way off of form.

    At the end of the day, it's lonzo playing. Let's discuss more him, and less of his pops. He's the one who had a bad game.

    Don't bother with that dude. Check his post history. He is filled with hate.

    A pathetic performance by the apathetic (not stoic) Lonzo Ball. I'm glad the Lakers fell for the hype.

    He is neither a better basketball player nor a better businessman than Michael Jordan, and that didn't help Jordan. Playing has nothing to do with running an organization. Owning a business also has nothing to do with running an organization. People say "yeah but it helps". No, it doesn't. In fact, it's as likely to hurt as help. It's totally random.

    On top of that we've heard Magic speaking a lot more than Jordan, and I find it uncanny how often he says idiotic things. I actually think he might make a good coach or owner, but I have serious doubts he can run an organization.

    A true Rockets fan can definitely spend a little time throwing shade on the supposed messiah of the Lakers. Besides, I've never understood, as an older dude, why any actual hatred is mixed in with more fun things like criticism and schadenfreude as "hate," but whatevs. Some generations expand the language, and others contract it. :)

    As I posted earlier, here's hoping him success (just not against us) and here's hoping he can have a man-sized come-to-Jesus talk with his damned Pop.

    I wish him luck but that shot is ugly. Shocked he was a lotto pick.

    Liked how he moves the ball early and his size ... don't like a lot of the rest.

    Jump shot is U-G-L-Y!

    Seemed to cocky also which I'm sure will fade once the league humbles him a bit.

    As far as the dad goes I think he was smart to go in on the shoes by himself and I think you will see a trend in the future. But his mouth is writing checks that I don't think his sons play can cash.

    He'll have a bounce back game. I'm not a fan but I'm hoping he'll be somewhat decent. Kid got dealt with some bad cards (i.e. his dad and the craziness around said man).

    He needs to lighten up. In that post-game press conference, all I could see was a Lonzo mourning.

    I'm all for standing out and having your own style. But the youngest one looks like a clown.
