    And his insanely high (in comparison to the rest of the weeks of his season) separate roughly 1 week periods svtzr detailed that skewed those 24 games to the 38.4%.

    So about that... Haynes's full quote is he hasn't even gotten into what a return would be. And he says Lonzo wouldn't be needed because LeBron needs the ball which doesn't even make sense because Lonzo's usage is insanely low for a point guard with his assist numbers. Not saying we're not trading Ball, but the quote was run with.

    What pissing war? Simple yet firm STFU. Lavar has zero power, he'll get it. If not, f***'em.

    As Kobe once said...

    Ship his a** out.

    Big Baller b****.

    But if we're shipping him out make sure it's for Kawhi Leonard. OR...make sure it's for a top pick in this draft which would obviously help us land Kawhi....wonder if ATL or Memphis or even Dallas would be interested in trading their pick for Lonzo and Deng?

    You've got to be kidding Shirley. LaVar isn't going to shut up. He would love that and escalate. The guy is sick and I mean that. So much better he could have handled all of his businesses once Lonzo became a Laker. His ego leads to all these horrible decisions.

    Edit. Actually you already called it in the very last sentence. They've already spoken to him more than once. Privately and not out in the open which was the correct thing to do. Sadly ... I'm sure because of Lonzo's talent .... it's f***'em time.

    If magic is in fact open to trading lonzo. I wonder if there's a way to get Bamba if the dominos line up for Kawhi, pg, lebron.
    You'd be left with:
    PG/Hart
    Kawhi
    Lebron
    Bamba

    Then fill out the roster with ring chasing vets.

    He isn't a bust, and he will likely be a very nice player, but he better show out in the years to come; because right now, I feel like we missed the best player in the draft.

    But time will tell...

    He will be really really good and probably a multiple times all star and was definitely the right pick at the time for us. In a vacuum without his idiot father and the men in the family's aside from poor Tina TMZ mentality. This just sucks the proverbial BIG one. Kuz balances Tatum for us. If he stays. If anyone freaking stays.

    I mean, a lot of people slept on Mitchell.

    But after that, no other player in the draft was required to be the initiator on offense in a system and team that was just starting to take shape.

    Tatum stepped into a more developed team with Boston. Markennen is a shooter. DSJ was really just featured on Dallas to do whatever he wants.

    If you think about the other intangibles that’s Zo brings with his smart defense, elite rebounding, his ability to push the pace, there are not a lot of players that carry his skill set that came out of any draft, even this year.

    Yes he needs to get in the gym and put in some work on his body, get his shot right, and he’ll be fine.

    SF .... what part of Magic and Rob have had it with him do you not understand, or the fact that by now they would have expected Lonzo to have had a heart to heart with his dad and told him to stop the attacks on the organization? They themselves reportedly did it man to man with him more than once already. And see Lonzo on line making light of the old man doing this. Speaking his mind. Except to them it is Lonzo thereby endorsing it .... no problem that he's doing it.

    No doubt they take no joy in having to lose this kind of a talent. But Magic is not the kind of guy to continue to put up with this s***.

    Despite the huge redundancy of having Ingram, PG, Kawhi, and Lebron, I'd trade Ball before Ingram 100 times out of 100. I like Ball, but at some point, the Dad is too much. If given the choice, Ingram is already a better player, a better locker room guy and much easier to move.

    All I keep seeing is trippin over Lavar...

    This s*** is only a story here cause you guys apparently look into,read,watch and over analyze Lavar.

    It's like knowing somen irritates you but you read or watch it anyway. Well then that's on you but to take it out on lonzo is unfair. Anyways I'm not here to battle anyone... If you don't know what Lavar is about right now i dunno what else to say, he be clowning,thats pretty much the bottom line cause S-F says so.

    Do you comprehend that it appears and is being reported in the media that Magic and Rob are shopping Lonzo? And are reportedly very angry and fed up with the Ball family. He's done here at some point soon because of his father. This isn't serious to you since you're a huge fan of his .... like all the rest of us?? WTF. He's done in LA. Get it?

    Shopping lonzo as in as part of a kawhi/deng dump special? Which is a rumor anyhoot but am I surprised? f*** no lol.

    I love BI and Kuz more than lonzo. That's the bottom line for me and possibly, the FO.

    Staying relevant in the media, pushing his brand and hyping up his sons. He's not trying to be thoroughly serious, cmon guys. This dude is a wrestling type of character and a comedian at the same time.

    In other family news LaMelo got a hair cut like Lonzo's (maybe to make OX happy) and is looking taller. Saw a clip of him practicing in LaVar's league but couldn't link it for some reason. Look for the high scoring games from him with the green light to jack up 40 or more shots a game and cherry pick .... on top of his own natural talent.
