    LaMelo Ball and Zion Williamson are matching up against one another in an AAU game in Las Vegas on Wednesday night and a ton of people are trying to get their eyes on it.

    After reports earlier in the night said that the game may have to be cancelled due to concerns about public safety over the sheer mass of people attempting to fit in the gym, the live stream of the game had more than 78,000 viewers half way through the first quarter.


    Mind you, this is a literal exhibition game between players that, in the case of Williamson, are over a year away, and, in Ball’s case, over two years away, from playing collegiate basketball.

    I saw some highlights... there were other players on the court that had better game then him. He won't be as good as Lonzo. He threw up a huge brick and his dumb crazy fucc dad was like "dude, what are you doing?!"

    Lamelo is garbage. Seen him play, chucks up ugly ass bricks, misses plenty of layups, he's a ball hog - "cherry-picker" - and volume scorer but not especially talented, just thriving off the family name.

    Cant believe I checked back in to comment on this fukkin ugly ass kid. First post in 4 months for me probably.

    Can't wait for college basketball. I guess I'll post again when NFL preseason starts too. Adios for now.

    Probably, you just need to be able to shoot the 3. You don't have to play defense or even know how to dribble a basketball anymore. There is no such thing as traveling, a double dribble, and they keep coming up with fancy names for being about to take more steps going to the hoop. They used to call 8 steps without dribbling a travel now they just say he was euro stepping his way to the hoop.

    lamelo is a horrible shooter tho he can't play defense and turns it over a lot. From 3 he shot 19% at spire 13% in the JBA 9% in the JBA when it was the NBA line 25% in Lithuania and is 6-27 in the Drew league thru his first 3 games with something like 33 turnovers.

    the kid did grow to 6'8 and still has point guard skills. with that skill level and height he should be a top 3 pick.

    He's not 6'8 and he doesn't have PG skills also he can't shoot Lonzo is a much better shooter than him.
