> but, IMO, the bigger issue is that he never thinks score first.

This is RARE in the league, and was a known characteristic going back to UCLA.

Because of that, no one high on Lonzo thinks he can carry a team with his scoring. But surround him with scorers? Oh fuck, it's on.

He's happy as a clam moving the ball around and being the fourth or fifth-best scorer on the team (but with the ability to be two or three on any given night, *as needed*).

How many guys fit that profile in the league? Rondo and... ?

With the right team around him, that unselfishness is a positive, not a negative. You don't evaluate players in a vacuum.
