Lonzo Ball refuses to work out for the Celtics

He knows the Lakers will draft him and that's what he wants, he's trying to stop the Celtics getting to him first.

>>76115742
he isn't even the best player in the draft why should the celtics care

well now celtics definitely won't pick him

kinda hope lakers won't either

God I hope the Lakers don't pick him and he has to go to the fucking Sixers.

Lavar would solve the California drought with his tears

>>76115783

>>76115742
Too bad they're not based enough to pick him just to fuck with him and then trade him to some flyover shithole like Utah for a starter.

>>76115794
are you trying to make the argument that fultz has less prospective or current talent?

salary is dictated by the draft order.

entering the league undrafted would cost you $ for your entire career.

>>76116788
You can't do that. If you don't get drafted you have your choice of overseas or d-league. Then any team can pick you but you would be making the league minimum which is like ~700k instead of a rookie contract which is around 3-4M

>>76116767
This image is fucking stupid. Nice job taking it out of context.

Lavar is the worst businessman of all time.

He has basically destroyed all his leverage..

No team is going to draft Lonzo outside of the lakers. And if youre the lakers...why use a first on him?

1 of 2 things will happen..some other dumb ass team takes him...all you have to do is show interest and he'll refuse to play. Trade pennies for him.

The other option is just to wait till the second or third round. You won't have to pay him shit.

Quite literally black people are the worst at this stuff. Is it genetic? Culture?

>>76116875
is this idiot serious?

Ball is almost certainly going to be the #2 pick. No way he drops out of the top 5.

>>76116776
Based Dutchman.

>>76116569
In America, "White" is northern European. I figured this out when I informed my friend from Portugal that he wasn't white. He lost his shit.

>>76116890
Why would any team other than the Lakers take him? So he can hold out and not play?

And if youre the Lakers...why the fuck would you pay premium for someone who only refuses to play for you?

Basic economics. He has killed his own "demand" by publicly stating that he will only play for the Lakers. Supply matters little when demand does not exist.

>>76116924
No it isn't

>>76116972
Vegas has Ball at the 2nd best odds to go #1.

Stop talking shit.

None of what he's doing isn't in Lonzo's favor.

Interfering with his career, trying to push your brand the next $3B sports brand awhile making the kid wear it, going at it in the media at every given turn, this is all heavy, heavy baggage for a prospect barely in the top 5 even if he was is a once in a life prospect.

Teams don't want players with baggage. They want professionals only interested in furthering their career, aiding the team, and win games. They don't want a media circus, outside factors effecting the player's decision, or distracting ulterior motives like furthering your brand; Lavarr is all of these headaches. But these all pale in comparison to dealing with a diva, which as the headlines imply, is imminent. A diva with a dad factoring into team decisions, while promoting his brand nonetheless.

Also I have yet to hear Lavarr talk about much of leader his kid is and his humility. All of these weights are gonna get a lot heavier when the kid loses the game for the team.

>>76116792
>what is a salary cap

No, they bill it as such, but the draft has little to do with parity. It's all about controlling bargaining power.

>>76117038
>None of what he's doing is in Lonzo's favor.
fixt

Lanzo knows how good he is and knows if he isn't in control he's going to spend his best year building a team for some shithole town and not even be close to a ring.
>*cough* Anthony Davis *cough*

But hey, maybe celts fans can pray that their small ballers lose to the cavs at the final then in the playoffs.

>>76116890
Only because the Lakers are not smart enough to do what >>76116875 said. Also because the league will probably "encourage" them to just pick him, to avoid a clusterfuck holdout.

>>76116772

I'm from LA and that is literally what Santa Monica is, the beaches are littered by hobos but I wouldn't call it a shithole

"Hey Lavar....I mean Lonzo...I really want you but Im going to stack the team...so im going to draft someone else and then try to trade for you"

Boom. Done. Lavar and Lonzo aint going nowhere else while publicly stating they want a trade to the Lakers. Lakers pay a 3rd for him.

Do not want.

Would love to see Danny trade the pick to some shit hole team that promises to draft him. But, he seems like such a cancer maybe letting him go to LA would be better.

>>76117160
he'll be gone at 3 if the Lakers don't take him at 2

>>76117139
so they can spend 7 figures to live among nerds, fags and Pajeet?

>>76117167
He would never go along with that because being drafted later damages lonzos legacy and therefore the brand. You're stupid.

>>76117167
This checks out, except for the fact that Ball loses salary money and image if he drops out of the first round. And if other teams know he's going to demand a trade and they'll get shit value for him, they won't use a high pick on him.

>>76117196
it doesn't check out at fucking all.

It would literally cost him $ his entire career.

>>76117178
If he goes to Philly at three, Lavar makes him hold out for a trade.

>>76117206
Did you even read my post? I agree.

You can't be this stupid. It's impossible.

True. Lavar and lonzo getting sucked into the process black hole would be beautiful, I hope it happens.

>>76116890
Lakers should draft him later. Use the second to take someone else or move down the draft. Lonzo will obviously ask for a trade if he gets picked by any other team. So the lakers have that leverage.

>>76117281
Lots of techies work from home, lots of service industry to support those industries. Lots of equine and cattle, lots of tourism at the wineries etc. Santa Rosa and Vallejo are two bigger cities in the area and you're only an hour from SF. It's the best of both worlds really. You can live away from the cities and their problems but still have access to their goods, services, and careers. Also who doesn't like home grown wine and weed? It's God's country anon.

How is that not possible?

If the lakers pass on him at 2...I agree...some dumb ass team is going to take him before the 8th pick FOR SURE.

But youve already set him up to throw a temper tantrum for not playing for the Lakers...You go in and fleece the team that drafted him because they know they can't get much for him(again for you simple minded babies, there is no demand and the Lakers have all the leverage here).

Lakers take someone else at 2.
Philly takes Ball at 3.
Ball holds out, refuses to play and threatens to re-enter draft. Publicly states he will only play for Lakers.
Lakers come in and pay nothing for him because Philly needs to recoup the cost, otherwise they lose their draft pick. There is no recompensation if a draftee re-enters the draft as far as I know.

Lakers get two top 5 talents.

>>76117339
My brother lives in Marin. He commutes to SF by boat. He lived in SF for 15 years before that. He hates it now and wants to move.

>>76117119

Only hipsters and foreigners live Downtown, white people occupy the middle class areas, blacks and hispanics occupy south LA where the houses are around 6 figures but are still shit

>>76117357
Lonzo would not play for anybody else.

>>76117363
It doesn't work tho if the Lakers pass on him. He'll be so angry at them the temper tantrum will be directed towards them. Lonzo and lavar are a lot of things but cucks are not one of them.

>>76117357
Do you know what leverage is?

Youre clearly the retard here. Lakers HAVE MOST IF NOT ALL THE LEVERAGE HERE.

Its like trying to sell your car but you pubicly state your only going to sell to that one guy down the street. NOBODY ELSE.

Do you think that one guy is going to offer you a fair price for that car? NO HE ISNT. He will lowball you because he knows you wont sell to anyone else.

Do they not teach economics to you children in high school anymore? Youre brain power is surprisingly lacking.

>>76117363
What kind of dumb fuck GM is going to take him early, and then give a fuck what kind of tantrum he throws?

Ball has no leverage, and any smart GM knows it.

Are you a kid? Do you really think Colangelo is going to use a top 3 pick on an asset that he's is then going to turn around and give away for nothing?

Stop talking shit.

If he is truly in the Lakers plan they'll take him at 2.

>>76117392
He's said before he will play for any team that drafts him but he would rather play for the Lakers than be the #1 pick. Stop being a retard

I'd take LA over SV/SF

>>76117413
Of course hes not going to use a top 3 pick and throw it away....Why even risk it and draft Ball at all then?

Again, youre pointing out what im saying even more. Every GM knows the Ball is going to want to play for the Lakers. This includes the guy getting taking his free agency option as quickly as possible. Which again, the lakers will be in line to sign him.

As I said above, all this is killing his own demand which will inevitably affect his $$$.

>>76117419
In central Cali they don't have stockpiles of water. Some counties like Merced have actually experienced subsidence (the ground sinks because the aquifer holding it up is bone dry) they are most likely selling their inherited water rights back to the state so the state can make a comprehensive water management system.

>>76117413
That's why he would fall down the draft maybe even the lakers draft him with their second pick in the first round

>>76117481
it's mute. The Lakers are taking him at 2.

>>76117419
Im from Fresno. That sounds like a crock of shit. Maybe before the drought was over...but there is so much water in Cali right now...Ive had to delay all of my summer river activities because the water is moving to fast.

If you think Ball is going to be there at 28 you need to put down the crack pipe.

I thought I understood Lavar's game. The idea was that he would promote his son so much he's forced to be picked number 1 right?

Why did he just throw that all away to go lakers or bust?

This guy is going to bust hard ass fuck.

lol lakers.

>>76117512
His brothers are. I don't even see the second brother being drafted in the first round.

>>76117501

Downtown San Jose is fucking cancer. Thats where all the East San Jose minorities hang out and fight. Have you seen the /heem threads?? /heem comes from the heem sleepy video...which was shot in downtown san jose.

Laker bros now that's its established we get Ball at 28 since he will only play for us who else do we take at 2?

>>76117553
This. Don't go to downtown San Jose unless you're Mexican and carry yourself well. If you want clubbing and shit go Mountain View.

>>76117553
I've been to all of them.

I wrote my last post incorrectly, SV isn't the lamest part of the US. There are certainly worse places to live.

But once you add in expense, it's pretty lame. I mean, I live in N. Brooklyn, it aint cheap, but at least you get cultyure.

And I've been to PA, Mountainview, Los Gatos etc. All lame. All the weird tech culture.

Ricky Rubio did this but had no choice but to play for the Timberwolves.

He stuck with a Yuro team for 2 years after being drafted thinking that the Wolves will just buy him out or he can come back as a free agent.

>>76117663
I was kidding. Doubt KP is available no matter what the 'press' reports.

Celts should sign Hayword in FA, and take Fultz.

Try and trade IT.

>>76117650
Problem was he played for a professional team...which leads to your draft rights never expiring.

If lonzo ball sits out for a year...he gets to re-enter the draft. If he sits out for two years...he becomes a free agent.

The only thing holding players back from doing to this is because the NBA scales its salary pretty drastically for veterans. Getting to Veteran status is where the money is at.

He'll probably ask for too much and Ainge laughs at him and ends the conversation.

There aren't a lot of serviceable big guys in free agency and most of them will just re-sign with their current teams or go ring chasing.

If they could score Millsap or Ibaka it would be yuge for the Celtics but it looks like both of them will re-sign with their teams.

They probably won't be able to make a serious offer. Otto Porter is a RFA and they'll match offers if they can't get an extension done in time. They also have to make a choice on whether to keep Bojan Bogdanovic or not. They still have Markieff Morris on contract at $8m for the next 2 seasons. They are absolutely wasting money by paying fucking Ian Mahinmi $16m a year for the next 3 years.

>>76119748
Pretty sure NY media will spit him out.

If Da Dolan couldn't catch a break from NY media then Lavar is just small time.

i mean i think ainge overreacted here with the "formal complaint business" but the bottom line is that i fuckin hate this lonzo ball character and his stupid father, im so tired of them being in the news. cant wait for this dumb mulatto to become an irrelevant mid tier player so i dont have to hear about this shit anymore

ainge's mistake is not looking at the bright side here, your draft decision just got way easier, now you can ignore this douchebag entirely. he just avoided what could've been a disaster, imagine if he picked lonzo in the draft, and then all these attitude problems appeared after? ainge doesnt have to worry about that possibility now

fuck i hope this kid busts so hard

There's a reason why no one does this.

Non-basketball fan here. Is he even that good? Why does his father speak for him so much, is he going out for the draft too?

I wouldn't want this circus act going to my team tbqh

>>76120929
His lack of shot-creating and on-ball defense keeps him from being a sure thing. He got torched by DeAaron Fox of Kentucky, a raw athlete of a prospect. His jumpshot is also really wonky, but it went in for UCLA.

Why do the Celtics, who are in the conference finals, have the #1 pick? Doesn't it work like in the NFL where the worst team gets the best pick?

>>76121167
jewish magic

>>76121167
They traded their best players to the Brooklyn Nets in 2013 for draft picks.

The Nets sucked ever since and they have the worst record in the NBA so they would convey all of their first round picks to the Celtics

>>76121167
They were on the fleecing-end of a garbage trade in 2013.

http://ftw.usatoday.com/2017/05/nba-draft-lottery-2017-boston-celtics-why-lottery-pick-awful-trade-brooklyn-nets-kevin-garnett-paul-pierce-breakdown

In the Nets' defense, both of the picks that the Celtics made are not All-Star material or greater.

Marcus Smart is a flopping bust and Jaylen Brown is a defensive sinkhole.

They better pray Fultz is the real deal and not just pure hype like D'Angelo Russell otherwise they already fucked up 3 out of 4 high draft picks.

>>76120576
Yeah and you'll let him know it too. That's why he needs to go to Philly, he'll be completely broken mentally.

>>76115742
>>did he go too far?
he's going to piss of Ainge to the point he'll trade the pick to another team just to make sure he doesn't go to the lakers (like phoenix, who REALLY want him).

>>76121182
>yfw you realize the Patriots are going to be in this position sometime in the mid 2020s after a strong playoff run due to all the first round picks they've traded away in the past
The NFL has something else coming to them if they think the Patriots will stop being a threat once Brady retires.

>>76121215
J-just wait for 2018! They'll draft 6'10 SF Michael Porter or a 7' Center!

he's considerably ugly

>All this Skeeup and Cowherd memesters that still believe that Lonzo is the best player in the draft.
Every expert has Fultz in its 1 pick. He is Wade with a 3 point shot. This is one of the clearest first picks in the last decade. The same way that Kyrie and Wall were.

Marcus Smart has 3 years on his belt already and still hasn't made an impact on anything. In Bradley's second year he was already a defensive stalwart to the point he replaced Ray Allen in the starting lineup even though he can't shoot for shit.

The verdict is still out for Jaylen Brown but he did allow Butler, Beal, Wall and Lebron to score at will in the postseason and looked lost on the defensive end.

>>76132919

I'm kind of worried about the D myself. We know we have some seriously good defensive players on the team, so why isn't it a great defensive team?
