Yesterday, the Lakers played a summer league game with the Celtics, and the Lakers lost 74-88, and the summer league has not won a single game so far, and it is already a five-game losing streak. Bronny played 25 minutes in this game, shooting 1-of-5 from the field and 0-of-3 from three-point range to finish with 2 points, 3 rebounds, 1 assist and 2 turnovers.
Throughout the summer league, Bronny shot 7-of-31 from the field and 0-of-15 from three-point range, which was really embarrassing at the statistic level. Even more embarrassing was Jaylen Brown, who watched the game on the sidelines with his girlfriend yesterday, and he said to his girlfriend: "I don't think Bronny is a professional player."
Their conversation was interpreted by lip experts in the United States, and Brown's girlfriend went on to say, "I think he's definitely going to play in the Development League." Jaylen Brown continued: "I don't think so, I think he's going to play for the Lakers because of his name. ”
For a while, Jaylen Brown and Bronny's entries rushed to the top five of Twitter's hot search list.
A few hours later, at 3 a.m. local time in the United States, Jaylen Brown may have been bombarded with all kinds of information, lying in bed tossing and turning and unable to sleep, thinking that it would be better to clarify and not affect his relationship with James and his son. He posted a post that read: "It's an honor to have your son play in the NBA with you, and it's a reflection of greatness and longevity! Bronny has all the ingredients to succeed and I'm looking forward to seeing him grow." ”
You guys, is Jaylen Brown Circle back?
I think it's getting more and more inexplicable.
Bronny's recent performance has been pretty average, or it can be described as terrible. However, he is still very young, there is a huge room for improvement, and there is a lot of time left for him, so I can only say take my time, take every step steadily, and continue to precipitate.
Some fans will talk about Bronny's 0-of-15 three-pointers, but this year's show, Alex Sarr shot 0-of-14 today, with 0 points, 8 rebounds, 3 blocks and 2 assists.
He was the No. 2 pick, and Bronny was the No. 55 pick, so Summer League doesn't say anything. Back then, Trae Young played worse than Bronny in the summer league, and didn't he eventually go to an All-Star.
Bronny's agent, Rich Paul, said today: "Bronny is a passionate player and I don't judge everything by summer league. Whether he averages 30 points per game or 3 points per game, Bronny has a good basketball IQ and game feeling, shooting sooner or later, it is related to training, he is very willing to train to improve shooting, when you have a plan and are willing to pay, good things will happen. ”
Let's talk about the situation inside the Lakers.
Today the Lakers signed another person, but not a player, and they welcomed a new assistant coach, a woman. According to well-known journalist Woj, 40-year-old women's coach Lindsay Harding was the best coach in the Development League last season, and after leaving the Stockton Kings, she chose to join the Lakers coaching staff. She worked with Reddick at the 76ers, both from Duke University. ”
So now the Lakers have four assistant coaches: Brooks, McMillan, St. Jean and Harding.
In addition, according to Lakers reporter Jovan Buha, Hornets assistant coach Bob Beyer is also expected to join the Lakers' coaching staff.
In terms of player recruitment, the Lakers have disappeared. The assistant coaching team is in full swing.
Lakers reporter Jovan Buha also said that the Lakers are expected to be patient after trade talks fell through the offseason: "According to league and team sources, the Lakers aren't going to trade for the sake of a trade, they want to make a trade with a purpose. The bar is high to get one or two wing players, let alone two first-round picks. ”
Let's just say that another new signing for the Lakers may have to wait until the start of the new season.
