Because he is mostly not a threat as shooter. If he were, he and Lebron would be an unstoppable combo. He really needs to improve his shooting. Right now he cannot play off the ball.
Agree. They can work around it a little bit when he is off ball by having Lonzo cut to the basket where he can finish or dish it to someone else.
But NBA teams will figure that out and make adjustments. So, he's going to need to be able to at least be solid from outside the paint to truly make things work with Lebron.
Nice comeback in the second half with some long-range shooting by Kuzma and James spearks the comeback and win. We even had some D and Chandler had 13 points. THese are all good signs as we move into the 6th position in the west!!
