I do expect his ball handling and passing to be much better on Saturday against this team though. |

He’s already drastically improved his shooting mechanics and 3 point shot. Now, he’s got to work on mid-range and touch around the rim because that part of his game is invisible. $20 million is a lot of money for just transition basketball and defense. |

I don't believe he will ever be good in those 2 areas. It doesn't matter if he is 23 or 43. His mid ranger will always be broke. |

My main concern with the trade was that he was about 32 years old. How many more productive years does he have? I'm not sure his shooting slump is indicative yet of him declining as a player though, more time is needed, but it's clear to me that the new management is trying to change the culture and build a winning team (maybe not a championship level team though) as quickly as possible. |

It's not easy making the adjustment from being no worse than the #2 option to the #3 option. We've seen far better players than him struggle with that. |

This summer will speak volumes about his work ethic after a big contract. |

Obviously, I like Lonzo a lot. He can get better and i sure as hell dont doubt his work ethic, i just dont ever see him becoming a fluid scorer from all areas of the floor. I just dont think thats his game. |
