Sometimes, change is just needed- Zion/BI just dont work well together.
We've seen what building a roster around Zion produces. People want to bash BI, but Zion is the bigger problem for me. He's looking more and more like Shawn Kemp to me.

So you would only be desperate to trade B.I. If Murray doesn't work out?

Shawn Kemp was a superstar in his prime and went to the NBA finals. I would take that in a heartbeat.

They're both fricking losers and i wouldnt want to build around either Zion or BI. But Zion is locked up long term and for cheaper than BI's next extension is going to look like.
I dont see any way that paying BI a Max ends up good for the Pels

Oh no! I don't track the contracts of every roster in the league. You got yourself a meaningless win, Shelley.

The better player who can't stay healthy?
The better player who can't get in shape?
The better player that disappears in EVERY nationally televised game?
The better player folds in the face of adversity?
Zion may be the better player for about one month per year, but he's a far worse teammate. Nobody is going to put their arse on the line for a guy who won't put his arse on the line for himself.

Three of these four things apply to BI as well. Come on bro lol

You're just trying to deflect and make it about me trying to get a win instead of taking responsibility for you being an arse to others when you didn't even know one of the most important things being discussed.
Look there, don't look at me for blame. This one's on you.

The fact that there is a daily war on this board on who is not living up to their potential more between Zion and BI really does shine a light on how bleak things are for this franchise.

But he started acting like an arse to others like he knew it all and others couldn't keep up with his vast knowledge, which just made him look that much worse when he was wrong on the entire thing.

You really can't be this naïve. Has CJ ever had to publicly call out BI to get him to engage his teammates? BI is also always in the gym with his teammates in the offseason. When we saw Zion during workouts last summer, everyone was jumping for joy...for him to do the bare minimum.

I like the idea of adding Murray. I'd like it alot more if the organization was willing to pay the tax this year and include Okongwu or Claxton.
