I don't understand how anybody still thinks that minute spurts and under 30 min helps Zion

If he's got hurt multiple times while doing this, why TF won't the team actually play him in a regular minute rotation?
It's some of the dumbest shite I've ever seen from an organization.
I could see if every time he's played a consistent 34+ he's got hurt, BUT HES NEVER PLAYED A CONSISTENT 34+ MINUTES. EVER.
It's the definition of insanity.
What if having him in and out if games and constantly working his muscles then stopping working them for 10-15 minutes real time is what's causing the injuries?.
Of course you are more likely to be hurt while actually playing, but the majority of his injuries did not occur on the court. It's a possibility that the stop and go shite could be the cause of his injuries, especially since damn near all of them have been soft tissue injuries.
If it has never worked before, me rf kept him healthy before, but you jerk doing it, what TF makes this team think that it's good to keep doing the same thing?
I don't understand how they have never tried anything different. It's legitimately retarded to continue to do this when it has never worked before.
Anybody else think y'all should try something different for once?

It's fricking stupid to think that if this fat arse plays 32 mpg, he likely will get hurt, but playing 28 mpg is going to help him not get hurt as often. He played 30 games last year averaging 28 mpg, and was hurt for 52 games.
How about you lose some more weight. And don't tell me he's big boned/framed. Lebron is a big arse dude and probably 4" taller than Zion and has always weighed under 250. There's no reason for Zion to still weight 275ish. He should be under 250.
Look how big Saddiq looks at 6'8", and he probably weighs 225 (they have him listed at 215 but that's what he weighed in college and he's obviously bigger than he was then).
Zion is 6'5" at best. There's just no reason for him to be over 250 lbs. If he wants to stay fat then he needs to go play football, b/c i'm sure he could go be a DE and destroy people at his size. But if you want to keep playing basketball, then get your fat arse in basketball shape.

The main argument to play Zion under 30 minutes these days is that it is not his team anymore. Queen and Fears are the future and tbh Queen is inconsistent with Zion in the lineup and Fears has dropped off significantly. Zion is also 1-10 as a starter this year
I think you can make the argument that playing Zion 29 mins is actually too much and not too little.

Hopefully this is the reason and the team ain't that damn stupid.
There has never been a high level player who plays 6 minute max at a time. Idk if that's contributing to the injuries but the shite has not worked for 7 years and they are still doing it. Players muscles and ligaments ain't used to going in and out over and over again. If the shite didn't work ever before, I don't understand the point of never doing something different.

They have to have someone to blame. This team was rolling a bit when it was at full strength outside of Murray. Herb goes down and we start to free fall again. This team isn’t good enough to overcome injuries.
