re: Zion is fat, slow, lacking hops and agility, still shooting 60% from the floor.

Ok great. What’s your point? Or to put it differently, what do you want?
We’re halfway through February and he’s been healthier year to date than he has ever been. We’re 11 games over .500 and in the payoffs if the season ended today. They’re a young and fun team to watch and Zion is a big part of that with the ability to take over stretches of games.
Would he be better 30-40 lbs lighter? Sure. Nobody on earth would disagree with that. Can that be changed between now and the NBA playoffs? Not realistically. So I really don’t understand the rant here other than ranting for rants sake.

so you agree with op. but you are just mad about redundancy?

Who ignored those facts? This thread was SPECIFICALLY to break down the actual things his weight is affecting, abd it's obvious to me that most the folks here have no idea how to watch individual skills in basketball or how to break down strengths and weaknesses.
Every post I made is supported by a detailed explanation of the point I was trying to make, and not a single person to disagree used any detail to support their disagreement.
I'm confident in my b ball knowledge bruh. I can hold my own.

To break down the way his weight is affecting his skills. Was it necessary? Probably not, but I'm bored waiting on my dispensary to deliver some Black Cherry Runtz and I wanted to chop it up. Don't be mad at me bro lol. We good ????

I agree to a degree. To boil it down its just another Zion is overweight thread. Yes we know and the earth is round- whats new? Yes the redundancy is very annoying.

Yo. How do I actually quote a post so that you see the quote in the post? I don't see an option for that. When I hit reply the quote doesn't display in the post.

I live in a custom made box with a 100 inch flat screen and a cable package with 1 channel, Bally's Sports New Orleans.
If you pull up, please bring me a space heater. It's so cold in the D.

Don’t agree with the OP about Zion’s explosiveness being an issue.
Still upvoted because he’s a fat frick that can’t play defense and tricks people into thinking he’ll become anything because he scores 30 points every now and then.

Literally had the greatest start to his career since MJ, best rookie season since MJ, set records in year 2, abd if he retired today, he'd retire as the most efficient scorer in NBA history

He’s one of the most athletically gifted humans in history. So yeah it’s cool that he can score a lot. He can kinda pass too sometimes. He does nothing else even remotely well.

Zion is suffering as a ball handler and can't explode past people because he has to load up to get that big arse frame in motion. There has been numerous times where he had his defender hip to hip, but could not explode towards the basket in the open lane.
Dumb take, one of his best abilities is his first step. You are a casual.
quote:
He hasn't been able to split double teams this year,
Again, a casual. He’s repeatedly split doubles from his spots near the elbow and when he doesn’t, he passes out of it because we have additional playmakers on the court. How he manages these doubles generally depends on our rotations. Watch more basketball.
quote:
Even his ability to explode from the triple threat is slow ASF this season. He has the fastest first step from the triple threat in the NBA, but right now it's super slow.
See first response. It’s arguably his best trait. Last night alone it’s basically all he did aside from fast break. It’s literally his #1 strength. Read a book, preferably about basketball.
quote:
His hops has also suffered a lot and he barely even tries to jump over defenders, jump into traffic, and only tries to dunk when the basket is wide open. His 2 dunks last night were so damn unathletic it's crazy. He is pulling so much extra weight around that it's so easy to see that he is MUCH slower and MUCH less athletic.
For your sake I hope you are a troll. If not, consider watching more pelicans basketball.
I could respond to the rest of your post but it’s pointless. You are watching games from a parallel universe.

You're either completely retarded and need serious, serious mental help and probably help wiping your own arse, or you get so much joy out of trolling it's become a serious problem. When you're that satisfied with trolling or you're that dumb, either way it's a huge problem. Do better
