Highest FG% in NBA history for somebody averaging over 25ppg.

Most games in a row in NBA history scoring over 25 on 50% from the field.

Highest PPG in under 30mpg in NBA history.

False
First of all, he’s only had one season where he averaged over 25. He is not a career 25 ppg player anymore.
Secondly, Giannis averaged 30 on 61.1% while Zion averaged 25 on 61.1%.

I think the highlight of his career was the baby momma drama.

None of these stats mean anything. First off, Basketball isn't all about offense. 2nd off. He's never sniffed a playoff court, let alone proven his limited game could translate to winning on a playoff court.

Unfortunately I would say, exposure. We got a lot of exposure from the time he was drafted to probably last year. Notice the lack of espn/nbc/etc games? They gave up on us when he became unreliable for scheduling purposes.

Banging gross porn stars and impregnating women with like three baby daddies. Dude is a beast at that.

At the time he did it, it was a first. And he did it at 20 years old.



And it's been downhill ever since.

He almost single handily destroyed the Lakers in a playoff type game…

He averaged 27 actually and he did it first, doesn't matter if Gianni's did it 2 years later, he was the first to do it. Gianni's did it better for sure though.

And then powerwalked off the court and didn't even come close to playing another game that year

He was great in that game for sure. That's not the issue.

For us to win a championship, he's got to put up 70 of those performances in the regular season and about 28-30 of them in the playoffs

His body exploded during 1 play in game (and since his game style is so limited), he couldn't even try to play through it.

That's why players like Luka, Jokic, Shai, Cade, and Sengun are the new age consistent goats.

Sure they can get injured, but their games are nuanced and based off skill, so A) they have a chance to play through it and B) they aren't going to get injured as often bc their game consists of dozens of skills, instead of just barrelling as hard as they can into the paint. Winning basketball and playoff basketball is about sustainability. Zion's body and game style has close to zero chance to make it through 100 games as the best player on a team.

anything he's accomplished in those 6 years were on a personal level... as far as team success, it's relatively next to nothing...

and that's why he has to go... for as great a player as he may can be when he's healthy, which is not often, he's not someone who can be relied on to build a team around... i think the Zion era has run its course, and it's time to move on, for both parties welfare...

That game alone made Zion to the Pels worth it. I was about to nut when he kept splashing 3 after 3, Lonzo knew he was hot and kept getting him the ball. Alvin Gentry was having an aneurysm cause he was on a minute restriction and the medical staff was bitching at him lmao.
