Traveling with team. Shooting at practice. Shooting on opponents floor before games.
It’s happening fellas. He will be back.

I would imagine the league put as much pressure on the Pels to play Zion by Christmas as they put on the Pels to play AD last year.

I mean he’s shooting...not practicing.
I have to wonder what kind of condition he’s in. Surely not basketball conditioning.
The way griffin spoke he was just cleared to shoot basketballs. If that was the case has he done much in the way of intense cardio?

He doesn’t look that out of shape given how much people talk about it.

Yeah, there have been reports that he's been doing cardio -- stuff either in the pool or on the special treadmill that supports you so you don't run on your full weight. He shouldn't be in bad cardio condition.

I don't think that will be a problem.

Griffin said, about eight hours before the Pelicans' season opener in Toronto. "That dude is a freak of nature. When he went through his physical, he ran on the treadmill longer than the cardio-stress test people have ever needed to put anybody through a test to get his heart rate up.

I was surprised when I heard that because he doesn't look the part. Ingram seems like the kind that could play 48 minutes without breaking a sweat, not Zion. But if his cardio was that good this summer, I can't imagine it's much worse now. The strength test is probably the main obstacle.

I don't know if Christmas is going to happen or not, but I feel good about the tickets I bought for the 28th.
I just need to figure out a place to eat and watch LSU before that game.

Literally Zion right now:

If he’s going to play on Xmas he probably needs to be actually practicing full time no later than the 20th one would imagine.

Doesn’t mean shite until I see a clip of him running full speed throwing down a dunk

you cant judge this by him taking pregame set shots

Make no doubt he is out of basketball shape. He hasn't played NBA basketball...well at all yet. When he does come back expect no more than 10-15 minutes.

He's not still cleared to practice. I can't see him getting on the floor for a game before the New Year, which is fine. Team needs to keep updating. Don't let the narrative just spin out...

He looks heavy as shite through the thighs and gut
Posted on 12/20/19 at 7:54 am to Pelefraan 1
for a guy with unbelievable ups, he is barely leaving the floor on the shot.
Posted on 12/20/19 at 9:45 am to saints5021
He is not cleared for full jump shots is my understanding. Hence mostly set shots.

then dudes need to stop fretting about start playing date.
Think back guys.
Remember your first day of full court practice?
Give up on playoffs.
Just hope he is healed and fit as can be by march 1.
If he cant even shoot jumpers yet...
They must be very worried.
