2017/18 NBA Regular Season

[Mexi]

Quit trying to go against the grain, it was a terrible call

im very non-partial

Just calling it as i see it. Melo did that on purpose. The rules state if you flail your elbows its an ejection

 

[bosoxlover12]

i agree that the rule is the rule, but it was not intentional at all

 

[Paulius]

Lonzo averaging 9/7/7 so far on awful splits

We’re right on so far Mexi lol

Melo did that on purpose.

very subjective

 

[Mexi]

Lonzo can pass ill say that

He just reminds me of rondo

Were right on so far Mexi lol

How are you right on? Its unreasonble to expect a 30% shooting clip to hold up. When that shooting normalizes and hes averaging 10-12 a game, his stat line will look pretty solid for a rookie.

Well we said itll be around 8-10 points, i said no more than 12 for sure, and literally had 6-7 assists and rebounds

Dont think we had a specific FG%, we just said he was gonna shoot poorly

Pretty spot on

Also dont miss the fact that Lakers are literally better with him off the court so far, and its not even close. He’ll get better, but this is pretty bad so far

Rondo was a way better defender thru the Boston days until he started not giving a fuck later on


Id argue that Rondo was a better finisher too

I'm aware of all his stats. It's too early in the season to get worked over plus minus. If the same story is told after 30+ games, I'll entertain it. 

 

[Paulius]

No doubt, thats why i kept saying “so far”

rondo was a good defender when he had KG and Perk protecting the paint so he could gamble on steals. then perk was traded and kg got old/injured and rondos defense fell off a cliff

rondo was never a good defender, just an opportunistic one

 

[Paulius]

Feel like if he wanted to stay in front of a guy, he did. Had the lateral quickness and will to do so, but dont remember those celtic days as well so ill take your word for it

Lonzo seems like he cant whatsoever tho

not one bit

 

[dez]

Only people who dont watch the Bulls would assume that Justin isnt better than Jrue, yall aint woke one bit

Y'all gotta sample size from what 10 games? On a much less talented quad then NO..

Kinda asked to do more with less in a way.

Plus I watched him last year with us.. I have a good idea of what kinda players dude is

nah, players blew by him often. he was just good at timing it for stripping the ball on drives, as well as jumping passing lanes. wasnt a bad defender but definitely overrated overall

basically the opposite of a defender to avery bradley

Hes just chucking with the bulls (Justin that is). Somebody has to take shots for them. Hes nothing more than a bench player.

Jrue is a quality starter in the nba. Theres no comparison

Id argue that Rondo was a better finisher too

and id argue lonzo is less selfish and a better shooter

 

[Paulius]

basically the opposite of a defender to avery bradley

But we agree that hes still a better defender than Lonzo?

and id argue lonzo is less selfish and a better shooter

Less selfish yea. Better shooter is still to be seen, so far its been ugly

 

[CameronCrazy06]

Better shooter is not a debate

 

[Paulius]

Idc about ucla or chino hills

So far he’s been complete buns
