You think that was insane (well …. agreed it was ) ….. but I’ll see it and “raise”. Bumped into this a few minutes ago. White Choc-o-late. Tasty!! https://x.com/hoopmixonly/status/1808619961620848764?s=46&t=VpASWooOp-c0BfbMzXjnIw
Is that dude named after Superman? That means Shaq will take petty shots at him for the entirety of his career.
doing a good job just finding seams and spots where he knows he can convert. i think the real issue will be whether he can defend against better nba offenses. they did a lot to protect him in college that the pros can't do, imo.
they should finish with the west's best record, for sure. not sure they're built for playoff success, though.

could be that i'm biased by my knowledge of his injuries, but he doesn't look as quick or fluid as he was. and that may be ok, as he had speed to spare. if he can stay on the floor playing a bit slower, that's better.
I saw an interview where he admitted as much. He's not the same player he was, but that doesn't mean he's a less effective player.
based on my limited view here, he won't be an elite defender on the ball anymore. and maybe at the pg spot that's actually not as big a deal as it was 20 years ago. but his offensive game will translate even at half speed, and his hoop instincts are top .01%, imo. i remember when he was a rookie i saw a coach call a TO because he saw that lonzo had sniffed out their in-bound strategy late in the game and they were clearly worried about him getting a steal. it was impressive, and the coach was right.
you delusional f***, you. Universal truth: anytime someone feels the need to read their resume back to you in efforts to prove they don't suck... they suck.
kobe bufkin (our supposed target in last year's draft) went for 31 standing in for trae in atl's final preseason game. maybe our scouts still had/have it? in other news, strawther went for 33 for denver, and they desperately need him to be a rotation player.
