This entire fricking Message board downvoted me for saying Zion couldnt keep up with Pacers Pace.

We’re playing slow and not moving the ball around like earlier this year. I don’t get it.


The lakers length is disrupting our passing lanes.

10 players in this game have more shot attempts than Zion.

why he will never win anything until he gets his weight and conditioning in order.


If he hasn't figured out how important conditioning and his body are by now, after five seasons, he'll probably never figure it out.

Or at the very least, he won't figure it out as a Pel.

They're playing slow because the Lakers can get back on defense because they are shooting at such a high percentage. Play better defense and we'll have more transition opportunities and can play to our strength and play fast.

The lakers are playing playoff defense . It’s a totally different game .

You can’t put pressure when no one is concerned about you scoring . Lebron is in centerfield disrupting everything bc Zion is a threat at the rim and that’s it . He’s begging him to come to the rim so he can take an easy charge .

You've been telling us for 23 games he's playing himself into shape.

Do your think he's getting in better shape as the season goes?

Physically, he looks as bad and as big as he has all season.

yep if lakers would just shoot like they normally do, we'd get lots of fast break opportunities which is where we thrive

Why would treye only play 9 minutes, especially in a game where our starters so clearly didn’t bring it?

Errybody too soft. The dude is fat as frick and it’s a joke. Imagine being so good that you can be completely out of shape and still be an NBA all star. However, if you could stop shoving bad shite in your mouth you could be legendary. You choose good instead of great because you have zero willpower or discipline. It’s mind numbing.

If Lebron plays off of Zion and gives him the full head of steam it's game over for Lebron. Except, Zion won't try.


That style of defense should be our advantage if we had normal Zion offense.

Zion has not been go enough on offense this year to make up for his complete lack of defense and rebounding.

Is he ever going to take his conditioning seriously?

You could make the argument that he is in worse shape now than he was to start the year.

These past 2 weeks, he has routinely been visibly gassed after like 6 minutes on the floor in the first quarter.

How many of their shots have been wide open?

They are picking on 1 person and getting wide open looks .
