Nance is not 100%
Agree, this is a major problem…he is a major hole plugger with his versatility to be a power 4 or small ball 5 when he’s healthy.
Without Zion the Pels are basically always playing without a real 4 on the court (and even Zion has his defensive issues protecting the rim without doing something extraordinary). Sometime going small ball with a 3 at the 4 works, but it’s hard to sustain forever and puts a ton of pressure on our 5s.

Now imagine Zion getting worn out/injured in like game 5 or 6 of a series because the opposing team is crowding the paint against him.
It's not an either/or scenario. I never once said we don't need more paint help because we obviously need to fix that, and it's weird as hell to draw battle lines because some people think we need help in other areas besides the one you are saying.
I've made plenty posts about the need for more shooting. But Zion's scored the most points through this point in a career since Michael Jordan, at the highest efficiency ever. You can count on two hands the amount of bad offensive games he's had in his career. To be this shaken about the possibility of him being stopped in a playoff series is unnecessary. Especially if we're running two other 30+ point scorers out there. Let teams build all the Zion walls they want.
But if teams are having record breaking series' in the paint, Bogdonavic isn't saving you.

I'd rather make things easier for our best player.

Cool. You want to build a team that allows for a nasty Zion youtube mix.
I'd like to win a series.

Yep, you figured it out.

Shooting would definitely help with that.

im betting griff cannot go all in while zion and ingram are out. i suspect we see no big move. its not worth it. if they were cooking at deadline you cash a couple #1s for a mobile defender big and give nance a week or two off.

I feel sorry for the fans that went
Son, no lie here. So I’m working next door on the Superdome renovation. We ended up pulling a 12 hour shift instead of our normal 10 and at 6:30 I asked around to see if any one of the guys wanted to come with to the game, it’s just across the sky bridge, because my old lady had work tonight. Nobody wanted to go so I ended up bringing my Project Manager. His position takes him all across the country for our major projects work including Las Vegas Raiders stadium, Fiserv form, among others like Miller Park. Top dog shite.
We left at halftime because of the arse beating I think he wants to fire me now.

Funny comparison there.
I’m sure Michael Jordan wasn’t getting beat up on. The pistons and Celtics were soft as baby poo. That’s why he was able to play 82 games a season 9 times, as well as 3 other seasons over 78.

I'm not sure what you're getting at, I never said Jordan didn't get beat up. Doesn't negate the fact that Zion is getting beaten up.
