He claims Ben Simmons isn't putting up good numbers for a First Year PG so I guess Simmons is like 9th on his list.

I only said,I'm not going to add Tatum to the list of players currently playing better than Lonzo because of the good conditions he found himself in with the franchise that drafted him.

Just look at what the rubbish you're typing. Is this amateur hour? So Tatum na walking corpse abi?

Tatum's 4th quarter alone is better than Lonzo's career. See it as you deem fit




The DeAaron Fox that is getting outplayed by a midget named Frank Mason III

Thank youuuuuuu. I was trying to remember this guy's name. This second unit dude that destroyed Cavs

Lonzo dey 8th position now



Dennis Smith Jr is currently not a better overall basketball player than Lonzo Ball....

The only thing he is currently better than Lonzo at is shooting.

Lonzo is the better Playmaker.

Lonzo is the better Rebounder.

Lonzo is the better Defender.

Lonzo's BasketBall IQ surpasses his a million times over...LOOOOOLLL...Try again.

The NBA doesn't agree with you...
Analysts no agree with you...
Even LeBron James no agree with you...

But sure na one Byke from Nairaland has a better opinion.

Let him use his playmaking abilities to play the 4th quarter




This is my own ladder here, for now:

1) Simmons
2) Mitchell
3) Tatum
4) Kuzma
5) Markannen
6) Dennis Smith Jr
7) Frank Mason III
8 D'Aaron
9) LONZOOOOOOOO, Super Saiyan. Next Michael Jackson Magic Johnson grin

grin grin You play too much, haba now. Lonzo has mad potentials though; Jason Kidd had a similarly tumultuous start in his rookie campaign - so that's an easy excuse for the Lakers faithfuls.

For all the moves Celtics made, they kept Marcus Smart.
The annoying part is that he thinks he's Allen Iverson...

We dey hope say the guy go improve. But for someone that isn't top 5 in rookie rankings anywhere, getting more hype than Simmons, Mitchell and even his fellow teammate istew mush.

Victor Oladipo a career high 47pts. Where was he last season?? They said he was a scrub and we were telling em their stat padding MVP Westbrook doesn't trust his teammates enough.. Everyone's career takes a huge leap once they leave the Thunders. This one pass coincidence.

I'm starting to believe this as well. Some players make their teammates better, some make them worse. Seems Westbrook is one of the latter.

Not so many options when you have someone like Lavar Ball as your father.

Omo I tire o! The whole thing makes sense now; Harden, KD, Kanter and Dipo all became better players after they left "Mr. Brodie the mvp".
With the way Oladipo is playing, he could have a shot at that unanimous MIP no doubt; now contrast that to how PG has fared in OKC so far, it's crazy!

He's in Boston..with Kyrie.

There's literally zero pressure on him...He could be dropping one point per game and no one would give a shït.

Same with Jordan Bell.

I don't rate either of them.

I pity folks like Fox,Markkanen and Dennis SJ.....with their talents wasting on trash ass franchises.

More trash

Are you talking about the guy that's the best 3 point shooter this season?
Or the guy that has the most efficient 4th quarter this season?
Or the guy that drops 6 more ppg more than Lonzo while playing less minutes?
The guy that has made Celtics offense better? That guy?

Like I said before: Tatum's 4th quarter is bigger than Lonzo's career. Take am how you like am

The bolded statement has to be one of the funniest things I've heard in a long time. No pressure on him? Really?
There's no gainsaying the fact that the quality of players around him might make things a tad easier (very debatable), but if he isn't playing hard, he won't even have the chance to be on the floor with those guys. Let him average 1PPG and see if he won't rot on the bench.
Tatum has earned his props, and regardless of the team that drafted him, he would still have been a BIGger BALLER than your beloved Lonzo (pun intended)

Re: The NBA Begins by aliondo: 4:46pm On Dec 11, 2017
Mehn..irrespective of the team he is playing,you've got to give it to Tatum this season.

Dude has been sensational so far.

I wait for Roland to come and give his opinions.
Re: The NBA Begins by Nobody: 5:13pm On Dec 11, 2017
He could be dropping one point per game and no one would give a ****, ok but guess what? He isn't. Tatum plays like a grown man.

Have you seen his moves? His offensive game is polished. You would think he has been in the league for 3-4 years. He is the player in that draft who was ready for the Nba.

Better hope Roland17 doesn't see this blasphemy you posted about tatum. He watches him every game, and will be ready to give you a better assessment on his game. He is my ROTY if Ben simmons was playing his 2nd year
