I hear ya but when Kuz gets into his scoring zone and then sucks so badly at D, I cannot focus on his offense. I can only defensive sucktitude. Although he sucked last night against Houston from a defensive perspective he was worlds better than KCPoop, who has got to be the worst defender on the team. He wasn't even trying yesterday! I really like watching Zo but I like defense more than offense.
the "bone bruise" is just their way of defending why it's going to take longer than 6 weeks. This was never a 6 week injury and the bruise has obviously been there the whole time. They boggled the timetable. That's all this update confirms.
Did you see McGee get pissed at KCPoop last night after he didn't put up any resistance to Harden and McGee fouled Harden? It was infuriating to watch. I can defend better than Poop and I'm 47! His defensive angles are bad and he gives up and half-heartedly runs behind his guy. Then the errant passes and the freakin' airballs and I was about to lose it last night!
KCP is trash. And anyone who thought that p**** would be back in 6 weeks was delusional. Kobe used to get the same sprain and be back in 2 days. Lonzo is a weak b**** and I would tell his daddy the same thing.
we all knew the time frame was gonna be more than 6 weeks. I just hope we are still in the playoff race and hes back in time to play like his old self when the playoffs start. if we get in of course
We really really need to fire every damn one of the bozos that run our medical/training stuff. Amazing how this s*** continues for 15 years (ever since Malone s***)... Then again, I think that the entire org. should be f***ing fired and the team sold to someone who has any semblance of a brain...
Hardly shocking, no player on our squad is ever back to this teams medical time frame. See you next year Zo!
The pb with this constant lying/ poor communication thing is the Lakers organization doesn't get attacked/blamed for it by LA medias so there is no reason for the Lakers to change on this front . Medias covering the Lakers are too soft . Can't happen for a team this popular .
two things guaranteed with this franchise 1. zero emphasis on defense 2. an incompetent medical staff
1. Thought that was the knock on Luke, sucked on Xs and Os but put his efforts into the defense, which when we've had a healthy roster including Zo has been upper level in the league? 2. I don't buy that the medical staff is incompetent. S*** and injuries happen. But the way the team reports and gives timelines certainly can be improved. Anyway just my opinions.
Of course there is a bone bruise in there somewhere. Why am I not surprised at all? I'm sure there's something else going on, we just don't know about it. Wonder if Lonzo is coming back at all this season, if we don't make the playoffs. Probably not. And if we do make the playoffs, that means the team is finally clicking, Bron and Rondo have activated their post-season mode, Ingram is balling & rolling and at that point - why even play Lonzo at all?
We will really need his D if we make the playoffs. That I know for sure. Getting there I'm not so sure about yet. We'll see.
If he can come back and make an imoact right awhile then fine, but its going to take him 2-3 weeks just to get back in the groove of things. If we make the playoffs that means things are rolling, do you want to disrupt chemistry at that point?
