Lamelo Ball

bballs84 · 02-08-17, 12:36 AM

Shoot and score he did, making 30 of 39 shots from two-point range, and seven of 22 on three-pointers. Ball made 11 of 14 free throws and also had seven assists.

means nothing until he is in nba

tony_come · 02-08-17, 01:19 AM

Weak

unde0087 · 02-08-17, 01:29 AM

did they play a middle school team?

jtoler · 02-08-17, 01:52 AM

High school games are rather short, that total score is crazy.

19th Hole · 02-08-17, 02:14 AM

That's crazy insane at any level.
Couldn't get 8 more points for the century mark.

tony_come · 02-08-17, 02:55 AM

Cherry pick. No defense.

Cuse0323 · 02-08-17, 03:34 AM

Damn. Make a couple more threes, and FTs. Not the greatest percentage, but that's impressive. The D doesn't seem like it was coached up in this one, though.

Still impressive. As I bounce back on my points, every sentence.

Older Ball is in the celts headlights for next year.

LT Profits · 02-08-17, 08:53 AM

He never crossed midcourt the whole game, just hung back on offensive end while team played 4 on 5 on defense.

It's the style they have been playing.. Won a National Championship last year finishing as the #1 High School Team in America.. Had won 60 in a row up until a loss to power house Oak Hill Academy on Saturday 96-91.. Only reason they lost that game was his Brother was banged up and shot 8-35 from the field.. Different style indeed.. Way I see it is whatever works.. Always trying to get more shots than the competition... Pretty fun to watch.. Never going to happen but would be fun to see all three play together at UCLA against college competition.. Lonzo has helped lead them to a number 10 ranking already so must be doing something right

62 shots? Shit, what decent high schooler wouldn't put up 94 if they're shooting 60+ times?

Never played a lick of defense. Pathetic to just cherry pick at half court. I blame the opposing coach for letting him hang out at half court. If you can't score 5 on 4 that's a you problem. But this "look at me" generation sucks at times. They want to give everyone a trophy but also can't wait to shame you by showing no sportsmanship.

I would have taken out his knee if I was on the opposing team.

Regul8er · 02-08-17, 09:42 AM

I saw highlights, and no way that was a Varsity High School game.

Maybe, maybe a Junior Varsity game, but looked like middle school to me.

bballs84 · 02-08-17, 09:43 AM

Check out the teams highlights over last two years.. Been playing the same way and against some of the best competition in America.. Nobody has stopped them.. Its the style the 3 brothers have been playing since they were kids.. Best high school coaches in America have had no answers.. Some of the outlets and catches they make are pretty darn impressive.. Reminds me a little of Kevin Love

Bill Dozer · 02-08-17, 10:21 AM

LOL and that asshole did it on Senior Night! Watching the highlights, the real game MVP is #0. He made half those buckets for him.

Thanks for linking the video. That game looked like a glorified HS All Star game. No one wanted to play defense. The kid has a nice stroke from deep although he seems a bit too right handed.

Ya, what a little bitch, cherry picked the whole game and then his team was fouling to close the game so they could get him more points. Call me when the kid does something that resembles basketball.

jtoler · 02-08-17, 05:40 PM

Only watched a few minutes, hard to believe he had 92 when pretty much all I saw were others scoring.

He scored 40something in the 4th quarter.

eidolon · 02-08-17, 06:04 PM

I thought 92 points for a high school team was high?

Chino Hills is averaging 102.9 points per game. (and allowing 81.9)

jjgold · 02-08-17, 06:45 PM

He is average
Kid

No defense in games

Kermit · 02-08-17, 07:13 PM

It's crazy watching a high school game like this and then hearing about a girl's team that loses 161-2.

kidcudi92 · 02-08-17, 10:55 PM

doesn't matter until nba

if he even makes it

whatever cute little cherry picking no defense is not gonna fly in D1 ball

SEAHAWKHARRY · 02-08-17, 11:13 PM

Guys he did it for a friend who is goung thru heart problwms looking for a donor and right before the game it was told to them that her heart stopped and they were putting her on a machine
He did it to make national news so the gurls go fund me page for the transplant $ was raised needs 100,000 it has over 50k now

eidolon · 02-08-17, 11:27 PM

Wait, he is a sophomore? Okay; that makes it even more impressive.

eidolon · 02-08-17, 11:28 PM

okay

agreed. I'm not impressed. This is not helping him develop for the next step which will be D1 ball. Won't be able to cherry pick there.

BennyBigNuts · 02-09-17, 01:31 AM

How has no one posted the video of this fkn disgrace?
I saw it and its a joke.
I have 2 minute video clip not sure I can paste a tweeter link or not for it? Is that allowed?
Him and his coach should be banned from high school basketball along with his numbers for this game.
I weep for the future.

<label for="rb_iconid_123"></label> back in my day! <label for="rb_iconid_123"></label>HS played/taught defense and where lucky if they scored above 75pts a game.

krk1030 · 02-09-17, 01:48 AM

if the kid is supposed to be a prospect i dont get why he would want to play with a coach running a gimmick system.
