Anthony Davis requests trade. Pels become league’s biggest seller

Lonzo Ball is super interesting. Terrific team defender.

He's basically a longer more athletic Ricky Rubio. He has issues, but I believe in his 3pt shooting.

I think Utah, a team with actual development staff unlike the Lakers, could really unlock Lonzo.

He’s ***... shoots 40% from the free throw line... that ain’t a development staff issue.

No thanks to the worse shooting, injury prone, version of Ricky who has a delusional loud father. We thought mama Burke was bad.

Who cares about his dad?

And yeah, I think a lot of its development staff issue. The Lakers are infamous for having a terrible/under qualified/under manned staff. He was a very good 3pt shooter at UCLA on NBA range 3s and shot 67% from the ft line. A change of scenery w/ a strong development staff is what he needs.

The Jazz would... they do a ton of digging into guys families and upbringing.


Nah that jumper is broke AF... makes Ricky and Terry Rozier look like Steve Nash and Ray Allen. He’s been developed by his pops for years... ain’t like he’s Embiid and started at 15. He’s *** and anyone saying he will develop his shooting is guessing. Good defender, good passer, shooting might be the single most important skill in the nba and he is so friggin bad there. Also not a good finisher, also can’t stay on the court... that’s before you get to his idiot dad.

You can have a great bowl of ice cream but if you drop a giant turd in it it becomes inedible.

Yeah and they would dig up he comes from a two parent household, has never had problems with the law or drugs. So his dad is loud? I don't think Utah would hate getting more national attention.
 
And he's a 33% 3pt shooter. He isn't that bad at shooting. He's showed improvement. He tweaked his mechanics this year and improved. He was shooting 36% from 3 in 2019.

The Jazz improved Rubios jumper and he'd been a pro since 14 years old.
 
If you’re taking on a PG rehab project then you have to look at Fultz who would likely be cheaper to acquire.

I’m sure they’d love hearing about how Lonzo is better than DM and how Quin has lost control of the team on whatever the hell the fox sports show is... why you think he’s shut up? Cuz Magic told him they’d trade his *** if he didn’t... once that control is lost I’m sure he will keep quiet.

Wow, his dad thinks his son is the best? That's wild and so disruptive.

He’s TS percentage is worse than Rubios first few years... not many guys start from a baseline of worse than Ricky... didn’t you kill @LoPo for his love of Rozier? I mean Terry is an athletic defender who could improve as a shooter... but he at least has a baseline of “not complete ***”.

Because Lonzo is much more talented than Rozier. He's a guy you have to watch to appreciate the unique things he brings. Hes a guy who has top 5 perimeter defender potential.
 
And I'm not saying the Jazz should get Lonzo, just that he would be interesting.

He's underrated because of his weaknesses and peoples irrational hatred of his dad.

Lonzo has more raw potential than Rozier. Lonzo is a better facilitator. Lonzo will end up being a pretty good player.

Rozier is ferocious competitor who will do everything to win. His streaky scoring will win games but can also hurt a team who has a coach who doesn't know when to pull him. Regardless, his defense and tenacity will always be major assets.

Overall, Lonzo is a white collar athlete who I question will ever have the drive and desperation to try as hard as Rozier. I would add Rozier because the price tag is probably half of Lonzo's.

Is it possible to get a restraining order against his dad for the Jazz and the state of Utah?
