Los Angeles Lakers again lose to the Magic and bad habits!
By Ronald Agers
3. Man! THESE ROTATIONS! WHY?!
Look at this tweet…
For the record. Lonzo Ball played 29 minutes! Here’s where it gets good! He did not see the floor in the 4th quarter.
At this point, Lonzo Ball has to be wondering what he has to do to get the minutes he deserves.
Right now, so is everyone else at this point. In the last two games, the Lakers tell Ball to be more aggressive. Okay, he went out and did just that.
He basically assisted LeBron James in a comeback against the Cavaliers saving a potential disaster. Then he comes back and plays well against the Jazz. I mean LeBron James says the guys needs to realize his own greatness!!!!!…
"“Sometimes he doesn’t realize how great he is,” James said after a 90-83 win over the Utah Jazz on Friday night at Staples Center. “The things that he possesses out on the floor, when Zo realizes how good he is on the floor, it makes him a very dynamic player and it makes us even better. And he’s been doing that as of late, [with] his aggressiveness.”"
Understand that this is your franchise player, LeBron James saying this…
"“Even when he’s not making, just his attack as you’ve seen earlier in the game, just him getting to the rim [is important],” James said of Ball, who went 4-for-10 from the field. “He missed a couple of ’em; that’s absolutely fine. He had a couple charges; that’s absolutely fine. When he’s aggressive, it just changes our dynamic of the team, and he’s been doing it of late and we need him to continue to do that because he’s very good.”"
Now you understand how ridiculous this is that Ball NEVER SAW THE FLOOR in CRUNCH time!
Lonzo Ball finished the game (early) with nine points and 10 rebounds. I have no clue, as of this writing, as to why this dude cannot get consistent minutes. Somebody can help me in the comments section below! Keep it classy, please!
Now learn from this!
Kyle Kuzma played some ball folks!!!
The Los Angeles Lakers started out blazing in this game because of all of this right here…
Kyle Kuzma dropped 15 points in the first half on the Magic before finishing with 21. Kyle Kuzma ran Wesley Iwundu off the floor for the rest of the game.
He came out aggressive and attacked the basket. His aggressiveness was the reason that the Lakers raced out to their big lead. Kuzma had been in a slump for a few games but it’s good to see him back in rhythm.
A special shout out to these guys for their dunk contest. This was impressive! Check it out!
