Yes Lamelo is talented and more talented than his brother. I love the kid.

But ain’t shit a sure thing.

He shot 37% from the field! And 27 percent from 3. Plus he is terrible on defense.

You know, cool, he can’t shoot from distance. Maybe you work with that.
But when a motherfucker shoots 37 percent in a bum ass Aussie league where no defense is played, we got a problem. A major problem.

I mention those players because they are all around pgs who can’t shoot...which is why they are having issues in the league.

Name me a bum ass shooting college or high school player who turned into a mega star
and won rings. I’ll wait. Most can shoot at least 40 or 41 percent.

Not saying it wont happen....but it is very rare. So he has to learn how to shoot and play defense. He brings electrifying passing, dribbling and size. Those are his standout assets. Ben Simmons does all that shit too, but can’t shoot and the defense just backs away.

Telling you , with me , in this day and age, I only want to know three things. Can he shoot, D, and dribble? If not, peace out.
