    AD's right. That didn't need to be a three.

    Oh well. Good to see NAW have the confidence to shoot the game winner anyway

    This team will cause me to pull my hair out with these losses!! Unfreakingbelievable

    We need to go to Zion in that situation, let him drive, get fouled, score, or hit BI for a shot

    I like Lonzo, but he needs to go. He single-handily lost this game IMO. I’m tired of the turnovers at horrible times, hoisting to many 3s, and picking up terrible fouls. He has all the talent in the world, but drives me insane. No way should he be taking 9 threes unless we down 20

    Lonzo stans..."Lonzo was wide open". "They never pass it to him"

    He is quite possibly the worst starting "point guard" I've ever seen

    Can't blame SVG tonight it's the low IQ players of today. To many jump shots when you suck at jump shooting. Pelicans need to trade every guard they have for competent ones.

    He was open. I don't begrudge him shooting it there instead of moving in closer. Ho-hum. On to the next one.

    I like Zion in the last 3 minutes of a game.. I'm not sure he's right for the last possession because of his FT%.. But I expect him to improve in that area.

    He's been pretty decent recently.

    Zion's last 4 games from the line:

    83%
    75%
    70%
    67%

    Trending upwards, and all well above his season average. Get him to being a 70% FT shooter and we're flying.

    One could say the wheels were never on to begin with.

    I think I will never praise Lonzo again, because he has followed it up with some terrible game losing quarters.

    That's on coaching. Why do we try to make him something's he's not? Trade the guy for a competent jump shooter.

    Would it kill you to be even a little bit patient?

    I would like to know what Van Gundy had planned for that final possession...12 seconds and they never even seemed to look inside....

    Most definitely.. I feel like it's only a matter of time before he settles at a solid percentage. I wouldn't rule out this year.

    I also don't think he should be pressured to take J's when he's not comfortable doing it.. He'll get there.

    The Lonzo parade this season is actually quite funny because 50% of the time he's quite solid and then the other 50% of the time he's abominably bad. There seems to be very little in between.

    Then, after each good game you get the Lonzo defenders crawling out of the woodwork to demand all of his doubters eat crow, and after every bad game you get to see the resounding silence as they crawl right back into the woodwork

    I thought SVG said he'd like Lonzo in an off ball role.

    Why the hell is he still letting Lonzo control the ball so much?
