    Is he? Or did he try to fix it and dad shut him down?

    We don't know. Ambiguity doesn't mean we get to assume.

    I'm defending a kid who's being attacked because of his father. IDGAF what team he plays for. Calling you out on it is a touchy subject for you and has you scrambling to find reasons that aren't attributed to his father.

    You can't find them and seem to be making them up. You base his "smug, cockiness" off of his sub par raps but give no other indication as to where you've garnered your unfounded opinion.

    In Drumpf's words:

    SAD.

    Yeah. The thing with Kobe was he was actually good.

    I only hate Lonzo for being a laker. I hate Kobe because he was actually good and a laker.

    I base his smug cockiness based off his "IDGAF" attitude in interviews. Just because you have a different opinion and view things a different way doesnt mean shit. For fucks sake.

    Lonzo may still be a good player though. I personally don't see greatness from him but he will likely have a 10+ year career. He is good in transition, has nice vision, and when he penetrates good things generally happen. However he will have to be hidden on defense, and for being a #2 overall pick at the guard spot he doesn't possess that takeover a game ability. That's his biggest flaw, he is not going to be able to win you games in an ISO situation in the NBA.

    Yeah, the context of good was more Kobe's level than Ricky Rubios level.

    I love when Blazers' players are cocky, but the other teams players can go fuck themselve if they are !

    Honestly if HCP of all people can make you quit the forum, you're probably better off limiting your interactions with strangers on the internet anway...

    Just stop making stuff up. That's all I'm saying. You have no clue as to why Doug has been inactive but yet to fit your narrative you'll blame @HCP.
    IJS, if you say something, have proof. Don't use conjecture.

    I agree. He is at least a good NBA player with many years of service. If he can get stronger, develop a better shot and handles - he could be great. I would still bet that the best rookie "PG" from this class is not going to be Lonzo. My early guess is Simmons - he really has the chance to be great.

    See how easy this is? It's not hard. Talking about his cockiness is pretty damn hilarious IMO.

    He will be good as well. Prototypical NBA build mostly (other than really long reach) - Simmons is huge however for a PG. More of a Magic / LeBron like build - which could make him special.

    I didn't make it up. Why the fuck do I have to prove to you something I know? You assume I'm making shit up which is funny, because I know more about it than you do. But apparently it has to be proven to the allmighty Dviss1 or its not true. Get off your high horse so HCP can kill it then beat it.

    You don't have to prove anything. But the bottom line is you come in here and spout a lot of unfounded shit.

    I'm just saying don't do that unless you want to be called on it.

    Who's being smug now? I just asked for proof of your assertions and apparently you can't provide it.
