I'm excited about seeing Lonzo as much as anyone, but now that you are in the rap game I must say: Lonzo please no more slights, or perceived slights, towards rap gods. I've already spent the last 2 years trying to fully support one youngster who committed the cardinal sin of the streets and now he's gone. I can't handle any concepts that put mumble rap over Nas.
I despise mumble rap, but Lonzo was right. Kids today don't listen to Nas. They're missing out, but Lonzo represents the next generation of fans.
Dear Abbey, I love sistas, but I don't like rap. What should I do? (The only rap song I know the lyrics to is "You be illin'") Signed, Confused in Kenya
Nas ain't real hip-hop??? WTF!?! You Know Nothin' Lon-Zo! Can't wait for the season to start, but while we waited we still had Thrones. S********t, we gotta wait for that too now! And can't wait to say #FkComing,LakersAreHere!
Personally I have him going Magic Johnson in his rookie year. Top 20 or higher easy. http://www.lakersnation.com/lakers-...-in-slam-magazines-top-50-players/2017/09/10/
Hey guys, I'll be interviewing Lonzo Ball on the Lakers Nation Podcast this evening. Let me know if you have anything you are dying to hear him talk about!
What impact does he see Gelo having at UCLA? What player does he think he can improve their game the most (similar to the bond he had with Kuzma in summer league).
Ask him how much weight did he gain since he finished from UCLA. His favorite Laker? About the Nas fiasco Besides kuzma, who else has he developed good chemistry with during practice. Working on mid range and post up?
what's his biggest area of concern in making the jump? handling against pressure? adjusting to quicker closeouts? Strength of opponents? general pace of game? is his court sense something that he feels he actively developed or did it essentially come naturally? how does one "develop" hoop iq? is it just playing a lot? who's the best player that i haven't heard of?
1. Ask him to clarify his Nas comment as in clean it up; 2. Then tell him that you know he's a millennial, but that he didn't invent rap.
