Wait, how is this possible if I'm still on the season ticket holder waitlist from 2-3 years ago?? Am I misunderstanding something?
Went to Anaheim on Sunday and the line was crazy. Almost 5000 people there. I waited for 2 hours and then gave up Lol my friend ended up standing in line 5 hours and getting a few autographs and pictures. This guy's popularity is off the charts right now. Real game changer....hopefully that translates on the court
Telling you guys ..... if he manages to play well, especially for a rookie, and the Lakers are looking nothing like last year and winning more than expected, the crazy worldwide club of millions of Lakers fans may just vote him into the All Star game. As a rookie.
I was under the impression fan votes determine starters? Who knows for sure? Don't trust you Kareem. You were always surly. That's why you never landed a coaching gig. Too many burnt bridges.
I agree actually, even if Lonzo somehow deserved it by playing great immediately, a lot of the media (and some of the players) hate the kid for no reason already. Sarah Spain was hating hard on him on Highly Questionable yesterday for no reason at all. They were showing a video of a toddler making crazy basketball shots on his little hoop and she was making "jokes" that he should be signed because he's already better than Lonzo Ball. National media are a bunch of a-holes who think they're so funny.
Yeah, thanks Kareem and Weezy. I just did a search and found this. Sorry about the "surly" smack Kareem. https://www.sbnation.com/nba/2017/1/19/14323792/nba-all-star-2017-voting-process-how-it-works So no way in hell Lonzo gets into the game unless he is truly balling his a** off. Did Magic even make the team his rookie year?
if the lakers are a .500 team at the all star break, i'd guess lonzo would have a great shot at allstardom. such a big media presence, and he will get a ton of the credit if the lakers are respectable.
Did Magic make it his first year? Edit. Looks like yes since he was rookie 79-80. Per Wiki: NBA All-Star Game[edit] 2× NBA All-Star Game MVP (1990, 1992) 12× NBA All-Star (1980, 1982–1993)
they gave lonzo the kevin mchale pit hair in that rendering. he did lead the league in many offensive categories...
