    Lonzo Ball is my second hated player behind Draymond. This dude is the most overhyped, overrated rookie in the history of professional sports.

    Just wait for the first regular season game Portland has against them.
    We'll get the pleasure of listening to Hurd & Calaboro gush about Lonzo.

    Watching these commercials I am surprised there isn't a Dot.Com for helping you wipe your ass. Because right now, there is some Berkeley grad out there who can't accept that he has no entrepreneurial skill whatsoever.

    Unless something unforeseen happens, I don't see Swanigan starting over Aminu.

    If Caleb doesn't start, I definitely see him finishing games for us when the season starts. Ferocious rebounder, great competitor, not afraid to shoot even from 3, and good size.

    Because he's a spot up shooter who can finish well around the rim if he has space. He's not someone like Swanigan, who's going to go one-on-one right at a player in the low post. Caleb is also better at finishing in traffic because of how big he is. With the way the SL guards are, every big man has 3 defenders collapsing on him.

    The first game where Biggie's defense is being exploited.

    That was an homage to New York Knicks Z-Bo.
