**LA LAKERS THREAD** Sitting on 17! 2023-2024 offseason begins

[darthska]

I don't believe for 2 seconds that Zo doesn't want the ball in his hands. His 2 main undeniable strengths are rebounding and passing. He gets the ball and tries to give it up quick because that's what passers do. Ball movement.

 

[WAKKO!]

I think people want to see some Chris Paul in lonzo

 

[EddieDoyers]

I think people want to see some Chris Paul in lonzo

Yeah I don’t want to see that until Lonzo can consistently score

 

[Lizakers]

I swear if he has another 2 or 3 point game......come on young fella!!

Here's the full Alford quote:

“The thing … I am very impressed with him is that I think defensively, he's really working at it,” Alford said. “And defensively he's growing in that area. For a rookie, I think that's the hardest thing coming into the NBA, is to learn what you have to do defensively. And I was very impressed with that.

“I just think he's gotta get the ball. When he's got the ball, he makes people around him better, and I think the more trust there can be in Lonzo being the guy that facilitates the offense, because right now what's being critiqued is his jump shooting. That's not who he is. He's not a shooting guard.”

“In my 27 years of coaching, I've never seen anybody at the collegiate level … move the ball north-south any faster and more efficiently by the dribble and by the pass than Lonzo,” Alford said. “And when that trust happens, and he's allowed to do those things, I think you'll see teammates’ game go up, you'll see passing, the joy of passing will go up in that organization. And when that happens he's going to get easier shots, and he'll make those shots.”

Yo tupac003 when your wife took the jersey to the Laker store at Staples did it still have the Nike tags on there? Going to try and finesse my way to a patch tonight if possible.

Yeah bro. It was brand new no tags removed.

 

[MVP]

Yeah bro. It was brand new no tags removed.

Mine has an NBA Store one, I can't remember if all the jerseys have that or not.

 

[tupac003]

Hope it works for you bro. They will have more laker gear out tonight. When wifey went it was before a kings game but they had the Lonzo there to swap with.

I’m sure the people who put the patches on the jerseys will be there tonight so they should at least be able to put it on for you. But they do heat press it on. They won’t stich it right there.
