    That step back 3 was so fearlessly sick! "It" He has it.

    yep... if he doesn't make all-D team this season, they should just remove the letter D from the alphabet.

    Those steals, that full court pressure on Murray all game, those passes, that clutch 3, hell of a game. LOL at the expert analysts like Jalen Rose, “Lonzo doesn’t fit what the Lakers are trying to do”, morons.

    Lakers team D numbers need to be respectable or the voting morons will overlook him.

    Unfortunately... you have to see the game to understand his impact. That time he flicked the ball from Jokic at the end -- two times in a row to prevent a put back in a crucial moment. That s*** doesn't show on a statsheet or highlight reel (well, may be on @CaCHooKa Man )... but it was a winning play.

    Artest must be smiling

    There is no player in the league that fits what we do more perfectly than Lonzo. Legitimately. Low usage, high efficiency, almost maximum versatility. The kid is a f***ing ball player.

    He starts to be more and more Kidd-like. By his 3rd year, when he has the time to bulk a little, train more -- he is going to be taking names and kicking a**.

    How do you quantify your pg standing his ground for a critical stop in the post against a legit elite post up big? Tally like 5 blocks on that play or something so the bean counters can have something to put in their nerd equations before voting?

    Just like I said... he does so so many things so well ... they just not the flashy, statsheety types, so he probably won't get recognition as quickly as he should have.

    Still can't get over how good he is defensively... without fouling Murray once I think... he plays such a smart defense. Sometimes, when he gets beat he doesn't reach, he plays properly.

    Simply amazing.

    The ball movement when he and Lebron are on the floor is magical. They have such immense vision.

    His best contribution tonight was defense. He had his hands every where, some that weren’t even caught, but he was in the mix. He goes after boards which most guards don’t and he dove on the floor.

    That step back three was beautiful, when you see him get that look in his eyes, it’s different.

    He’s only going to get better from here.

    Yeah... I am not trading him for the likes of Tatum. Although I liked him in "Step up".

    Dare I say Big Baller...

    And that's cause Murray will bawl his eyes out once he sees the box score.

    -12 which was the worst on Denver tonight.

    What a monster on defense. Incredible. He’s a star, I don’t care what anybody says.

    All you ever need to know about Chuck is that video of him blind-tasting food. Out of all the s*** that included banana, seeweed and such, all he could understand was f***ing Krispy Kremes.

    That dude is super un-informed. About everything ever.
