If (and that's a big if) his current form is due to him having an injury, he needs to sit his ass down.

Philadelphia 76ers guard Markelle Fultz, the No. 1 pick in the 2017 NBA draft, had fluid drained from his right shoulder earlier this month and is planning to visit a specialist soon, his agent told ESPN on Tuesday.
"Markelle had a shoulder injury and fluid drained out of the back of his shoulder," agent Raymond Brothers told ESPN. "He literally cannot raise up his arms to shoot the basketball. He decided to try and fight through the pain to help the team. He has a great attitude. We are committed to finding a solution to get Markelle back to 100 percent."

WTF Bulls?? Who are these guys? LeBron is playing point so they can start Love, Thompson, and Crowder. Not working.
 
Inappropriate humor and off-topic, but a Wesley Matthews in Texas was arrested for disposing of the body of his 3 year old daughter, if I caught the news blurb right.

Bulls have somehow managed to create problems for Cavs almost everytime they play. I seem to remember them winning 3 out of 4 regular season games (or even all) last year or the year before.

Starting Justin Holiday and Zipser is pretty tough on Bulls fans.

And it looks like they managed to eke some points out, huh BNM?

Looks like you spoke a little to soon. After 4 games UTA is 29th in the league in scoring at 95.3 ppg. The league average is currently 106.0 ppg. Only the lowly Knicks are worse.

They are who I to thought they were.

EXACTLY.... I'd wager to say that most of the forum that doesn't like Ball and formed their opinions about him because of his Dad.

Yes I'm talking to all of the Ball detractors on this one. Every one of you. I don't believe any of you when you say you don't like his game and basically root for him to fail. It's his dad you don't like.
Lonzo has been a good kid. He just has an asshat for a father.

Bullshit.

Lonzos overrated, a stat stuffer that doesn't help his team, cringey as fuck, an awful rapper, and a cuck for letting his dad's mouth run his career.

There's many reasons to dislike Lonzo.

The whole reason he HAS a career is because of his father. So you're saying he should speak out against his dad? Yeah that makes sense...

You seem to be REALLY emotionally invested in this argument. But bottom line, you wouldn't be so invested if it weren't for his father's mouth.

Oh you don't think he'd be good enough to make the league otherwise?

I've posted one post and I'm already emotionally invested? Nah. You always get worked up defending this kid.

You can say what you want but if his dad wasn't an asshat, he'd barely be on your radar.

If he was as overhyped as he is, a Laker, and a cocky, cringey, smug, ass-"rapper" that he is as well, I would have a kit of hate for him too. His dad plays a part but isn't the only reason.

And therein lies our difference.

I would never use someone's parents as a reason to dislike them or root for them to fail.
 
I hope Ball has a shitty career because he is a Laker. His father being the next coming of Michael Jackson’s dad doesn’t help any.

Sure, but be honest and admit you probably thought that well before he was a Laker and his dad was the primary influence.

And yes @BonesJones I will defend any kid who is attacked because of their parents. They can't choose those, they must simply deal with them.

Now, that's the ONLY reason I defend him.

That’s fair. His dad is a shithead wannabe cult leader, and I hope his sons can break away from that. If Laker Ball was a Blazer I’d hope he does well and also hate his fucking asshole of a father. But he’s not. He’s also a fucking Laker.
