Are there any Zion defenders left?

If so, what's the defense... besides the lazy defense that he plays?
I mean, it's great I guess he's averaging 23.5 ppg but with him as the focal point, our offense is a slog and a chore to watch.
The point Zion thing was great in theory, but he doesn't have the handles, nor does he seem to have any interest in working on his handles or any other facet of his game.
On top of that, he still seems to lack maturity and believes he can still get by with his athleticism, which he is already beginning to lose.
This is who he is and I think, at this point, it's pretty safe to say that it will be who he is for the rest of his NBA career, regardless if that's in NOLA or elsewhere.

If we trade Zion now(this season) what do you think realistically we could get in return?

Lets see how he looks under a coach he actually respects first

If he didn't respect the first three he played for, maybe there's a different problem.

He loved SVG and played hard as hell for him, so not sure what you’re trying to say.

You are correct. We will allow him to at least play a while with the new coach. Even though it will probably be Borrego, lol.

So we're just ignoring the player mutiny thing

Not as good a advertised.

I’ve said for years now, Zion is fools gold

Ingram and Hart?
They were the ones that got SVG fired, Zion loved him, he loves hardnosed coaches, always has
Posted on 11/2/25 at 6:27 pm to Soggymoss
He’s not even an all star level player. It’s pathetic

Zion was definitely rumored as well big dawg.
He was the player with the most sway at the time considering they were (allegedly) building a roster around him.
The Hart stuff never made sense, considering he loved playing for Thibs.

He doesn’t want to be here. He just will not say it publicly
Posted on 11/2/25 at 6:35 pm to Broski
I haven’t given two shits about the players effort level this year yet.
If Gayle is going to be such an ahole about Willie, I actually agree with the players trying to make sure he gets gone.

Unless they are lying, he had the opt leave this past offseason.

None of the Pel vets want to be here, and give Fears and Queen a year and they’ll want out too.
Some eventually say it publicly but with Stephen A and the other respected league mouthpieces it all leaks.

Dude Zion has had 3 coaches now. And maybe he did respect Gundy. Hard to really know, but that was 5-6 years ago. His arrow isn't as high as it was then due to wear and tear, injuries, and off court nonsense. You can make an argument that Zion Williamson is a coach killer.

Zion will be good when he will quit the team...Like Dyson Daniels getting MIP and runner-up DPOY at Hawks.

You can't be a coach killer when your coach has never been alived.
