@@taylormalone1050 the main knock on his game skill wise was the shooting and he drastically changed that. Great defender, IQ, teammate, passer. And he was shooting an amazing percent from 3. He’s still young too, he’s not 29 or anything where it’ll end his career forever. Players have had major injuries multiple times and still made an impact. He is not Lamelo star level, but he can still be a borderline all star, a 3rd/4th best player on a contender. Look at draymond, or Simmons pre mental issues. These dudes are elite defenders and passers, and they have major appeal from teams just off that. Even when other parts of their game struggle. And Lonzo has proven he can be more than just a pass first defender, He evolved his scoring and aggression.

When I was in HS football, our coaches constantly encouraged us to be involved in a winter or spring sport, and practically everyone did. Some did basketball, some did wrestling, some did baseball, and the rest of us did track & field. I remember always reading about great players in each sport starring in other sports in high school, and they didn't specialize until college or even professional. That's why I feel better that Giannis also played soccer when he was younger, so he didn't just focus on basketball.

The line for success is so slim when you get serious you need to focus almost exclusively on your sport I box and now coach, it is a little different because so much more is involved in success and you cant spar hard 7 days a week so i encourage my guys to do different things like chess or what usually happens is video games, to keep their reflexes and mind sharp.

Hopefully he can do that somewhere the fuck else because everyone wants him off the Bulls. He seems like a nice enough person, he's not an asshole or a guy with off the court problems, but everyone in Chicago is tired of his bum ass on our team.

His effect on his team is so apparent, even here they are lit up with joy just interacting or scoring a pass from him. Shit's beautiful. They are really having fun out there.

LaVar was a role player that waited for a moment to become a star. He couldn't do it on the court himself, but boy did he stretch out his fifteen minutes off the back of his way more talented sons. His sons got the talent, were humble, and looked to be pretty marketable. Unfortunately they allowed their loudmouth father use them to market his terrible shoes, and speak for them.

also i would take those "i started playing since 2" stories coming from Lavar Ball as a grain of salt. That guy exaggerates everything he says.

They are perfecting their dunks at an early age ‘trying to be like Mike’ giving tremendous impact on their knees. Then developing muscles too powerful for their tendons and ligaments putting an emphasis on an air game instead of a floor game

Take a year off, stick to meal plan and occasional workouts to keep body in shape. He has gotta let his body normalize after such massive surgerys. This is also an issue with many other players, it takes MONTHS for your body to fully heal ankle and knee injuries because of the level of stres they undergo especially on a professional sports level. A career is worth waiting a year for if you still have 10-12 years in the league MINIMUM.

I'm a lifelong Laker fan and I always liked Lonzo. He was a bad shooter as a rookie and barely decent his second year, but he was very good at literally everything else (passing, defense, rebounding, general game awareness) and he's one of the best outlet passers of all time, right up there with Bird, Kevin Love, and D Wade. He also seems like a nice kid; probably too quiet for LA, but the sort of dude I love to root for. I really hope he gets better. I think he's a legit all star if he's healthy.

This really opened my eyes. I thought you had to train that hard as a teenager to even be considered for the NBA. And I thought that cardio work outs like what Lonzo did would improve your condition.

Intensity, rest, recuperation and biochemical efficiency and safety are very important factors that professional trainers prioritize. As opposed to bro dad workouts combined with what they did "back in the day" which are more likely lead to injuries. Fox has been plagued by a minimum one 4-8week injury since his rookie yr. Tatum's trainer is Drew Hanlen, he says last year they concentrated on bulking him up while this summer they concentrate on strenght and flexibility. dont kniw about Mitchell.

I don't think training at a young age has anything to do with it. It's more about programming your workouts to allow for sufficient recovery. If you don't allow your body to sufficiently recover from workouts or if your workout routine methods are bad, you run into a higher risk for injury. Working out shouldn't be about running your body to the ground but more about slowly progressing your workouts at a comfortable pace to what your body can handle.

His time in Chicago was looking really promising, they were he most exciting team to watch.

I tell people this all the time that we tend to think of injuries as “unlucky”. Which they partly are because me and my little brother lived the same lives yet he’s more injury prone, but also a style of play like Derrick rose is something that is hard to produce for countless years. Yes you played ball all day everyday since you were 3, but maybe that’s why your body is giving out in ur mid 20s. Yes maybe you go to the gym after games but maybe that’s why you body never gets time to heal. Maybe you’re the best person on the ball but it’s because you never put time in the gym. In soccer my team is currently super injury prone because the style of play we played was so much running that it won us a lot of trophies And games but it’s starting to catch up the players. In summary injuries aren’t solely based off luck. To be a great athlete you also have to plan how to be great without burning out. But I pray for Lonzo though

Contactless injuries due to wear and tear are usually much harder to recover from. This is also why, even though hockey is a more physical game than basketball while also having a 82 games, hockey players are usually able to play for longer and be good for longer compared to basketball players due to the fact they might suffer more injuries like cuts and bruises but the act of skating is not as harsh on their knees or legs as basketball players

Honestly Lonzo a good dude and a great player. I hate to see him get injured often.

As a life long Bulls fan I would love to see him at full strength with this team. He clearly was coming into his own and showed what he could do.
