If he didn’t realize we have moved on from a Z centered offense by now then he witnessed it last night watching the team beat a damn tough Rockets squad while ge rode the pine in the 4th.

They would be dumb to have him come there to clog up the lane like he clogs up his arteries.

Wish in one hand, shite in the other. See which fills up first.

Realistically, he probably only has 4 more years.

His absolute best career move at this point may be to become an elite scoring 6th man.

That's kind of crazy and probably an overreaction but every season he becomes a little less effective.

It's actually not. Zion refuses to adapt & add to his game. Teams have figured him out. That's why he has become less effective every season. He keeps playing the same way while expecting a different outcome. He's not going to be effective in any system, on any other team unless he adds to his game. Even right now, he can't dominate second units with his bully ball style.

Pair him up with a couple of elite shooters, a stretch five and a lifetime supply of Ozempic and he can be serviceable.

We don’t have any of that.

Zion just dribbled the ball off himself imagining that.

He is to much of a poser bitch to request one.

No one is going to want him, or give up anything worthwhile for him.

I think the only teams that would trade for him are teams with a bad contract guy.

I could see the Sixers pulling the plug on PG and even Embiid, although i'm not sure who would want Embiid and his 3 years left at $60m/yr. He just doesn't look like the same MVP guy from 3 years ago, and he's more injured than Zion.

I doubt the Bucks are looking to get Zion back in a Giannis trade.

The Nets and Hornets have salaries to go get him, but do they actually want him?


I think the TWolves would love to trade Gobert, but i seriously doubt they want Zion back when they already have two big 4's.


I'm sure the Grizzlies would like to move on from Morant, but i sure as shite don't want that idiot.

The Blazers have Jrue and Grant both with 2 years left at $35M/yr each, but i think they like both of them and wouldn't trade them for Zion.

The Mavs want to get rid of AD. Despite the fact that this huge bitch would be a great 5 to play with Queen, I don't ever want to see him in a Pels uniform again, even though this would be a really good opportunity.


The Kings are ready to blow up a bit. I could see them making some big changes.
I'd gladly trade Zion/Looney for Lavine. Anything to bring in more 3 point shooting. Lavine is still one of the best volume 3 point shooters in the league. Yes he's way overpaid, but i don't care about that with Queen and Fears on rookie deals. No one on this current team outside of maybe Trey & Herb will still be on this team in 3 years with Queen and Fears.

They don't have anything to give that we want. Luka and maybe Reeves are untouchable and those are the only players that I would want.

One of the better analyses I've read in a while on this situation. We need to try get him 20-25 minutes a game and hopefully show that he can be fairly effective with a controlled amount of minutes and hope that we can find a partner and get 80-90 cents on the dollar.

Z really is the perfect pitch man for oZembic.

Can’t shed the weight? Don’t want to waste a life sweating in the gym?

Ozembic. Nearly as good as putting in the work, with none of the work.

Or Zion/Hawk for Lavine and couple of seconds (they have their own and Horntes 26).
Looney has team option, so better get off Hawk contract.
