Scoop is direct connect with the family. This is last year all over again.

I may have left New Orleans a long time ago but I was born in University hospital and I will always rep that fricking Boot. Im sick and fricking tired of these good people getting taken advantage of.

Im fricking tired man this shite makes me wanna be a Villain.

Zion Williamson wants to play but Pelicans are being extremely cautious, I’m told. Pelicans don’t think he is up to conditioning of playing in games just yet but still have faith.

With news that he will sit out season finale, there’s hope in a return if team makes Playoffs.


This is the tweet.

Show me where the family says that.

I mean, this is the glass half full interpretation: the team wants the best chance of Zion performing well in the playoffs. In order to do that, they are continuing to hold him out until the playoffs start.

Assuming that we fight our way into the actual playoffs, that gives Zion nine more days, until the 15th, to get himself fully ready and for the team to get ready to play with him.

How do you do that when the team is in playoff mode? You cant afford to have shitty minutes from a fat Zion not playing defense in a do or die game.

It sounds like Zion has to make weight before he can play.

Unless you think this team is contending for a title (they're not) then they can afford it

So you would toss making the playoffs for Zion to get in shape. Thats asinine, nobody would do that. How do you explain that to the guys actual in shape busting their arse?

You all say that now until he costs you making the playoffs because he cant literally ruj the court. Remember fat zion in bubble? How well did we do then? Thats also when he pulled his hammy but pels never told media.

Not what is being discussed. And if it is, we have no star to build around based on your logic.


It is being discussed, as the general question about Zions availability is a constant issue for this franchise.

Brandon Ingram plays much much more than Zion.

You're confusing what you're discussing vs what was being discussed that you replied to.

Now you're moving the goalposts. First, it was taking too long to return from injuries. But when you realized that your guy you're biased towards has the same issue, you changed your argument entirely.


Try to stay on topic here, that's twice in 3 posts you've veered away from what others were discussing and then what you yourself was saying.

Youre replying to me. This is what we’re discussing.

No I’m not. We can’t build around Zion because he doesn’t play.
