Problem with Z is he can't be your closer because he can't make FT's consistently and he tends to turn the ball over late.
Giannis won a title as a worst FT shooter who turned the ball over more than Zion. Giannis also shot sup 60% from the line in the playoffs the year he won the title. Zion's game, in theory, can be the closer, he likely just doesn't have the conditioning to do it well.

But, the biggest problem I see late is we don't run anything that resembles a play other than everyone get out of the way and let BI or Zion screw something up.

This is certainly a problem.

To be fair a big reason why Giannis won his title was Jrue Holiday- his ability to defend, hit shots and play point guard down the stretch was vital for them. Even now Lillard is key for them. For bigs like Zion and Giannis you need elite lead guards. Im not blaming CJ, had a fantastic season but hes not a lead guard, hes more of a scoring off guard. To top it off- you have BI who goes into hero ball mode instead of playing through Zion.
