#LavarBallSays- Ball In The Family (the Other Ball Kid Content)

Man you are a special kind of hater.

 

Again, I don't even disagree with that.

The whole point of having Lonzo was supposed to get the ball up the floor and fly around quickly. The hit ahead pass along the baseline should open up a quick shot about 50% of the time in the offense. Have Larry take the ball out, have Brook sprint middle. KCP and Ingram fly up the wings. Lonzo takes it and passes it up to one of the wings. Look for Brook early down the lane if it's there. Try to push the ball early and see if you can get a layup. Drive and if there's no lane there, move the ball to either the corner, the middle to Lopez, or out to Lonzo who should be situated at the top of the three point line. There's also Larry on a late dive. All of that should happen in the first 7-8 seconds or so. If you have to bring the ball back out, that's no big deal. There's still plenty of time to get into a set.

If the ball is turned over, Larry is our best/most versatile defender in the starting lineup. He's back to protect the rim. The pace we should play at with Lonzo, especially to start games, should be frenetic and we should be pushing ourselves faster than other teams.

 

I think it's possible, but I'm not sure Magic would do that. Use Lavar to get to Luke? That'd be a really strange work environment.

 

Absolutely. Think back to the way we played in Summer League: quick passes, the ball moving up the court right away. Obviously this is the NBA and those baskets will be harder to come by, but there'll still be opportunities there.

We shouldn't just lead in PACE we should be tearing the roof off of it.

 

Lonzo never promised a thing. Everything he’s said about himself has been honest. If you want to get mad at Lonzo over things his father and Magic said good for you. I for one am not for judging a rookie as harshly as you do 23 games into his career. Your crusade against Lonzo is more than silly to me. Kid has flaws in his game, but he’s had some amazing stretches for a rookie, and the flaws are fixable.

Why would Lonzo speak out against or suddenly turn on the man who raised him and helpd get him to the place he is now? You see Lavar the cartoon character, Lonzo knows Lavar the father and the man. I feel like you just want to argue and spout some ridiculous stuff, rather than actually stop and think about what you’re saying.

 

Where does Lonzo being “disgusted with losing” take himself out of the equation? Can you not be disgusted with losing and yet know you are part of the reason? That to me would make it all the more “disguising”, not being happy with your own play on the court. I swear you are reaching big time, think before you hit “post reply”.
