But why??? Because of conditioning or did he reinjure it?? This is getting ridiculous. Old man Tom would have traded Zion and fired Griff by now.

We are not far from being able to label him a bust...

This is useless without giving us more info on the "why" behind it.

Shams said over and over that is was conditioning. Zion is fat right now.

I wish he did suck on the floor, never got the contract and just traded him and been on our way. The fact he teases you it what makes this so frustrating on what to do.

Oh well. We'll go as far as BI, Trey and CJ can drag us. I wouldn't be surprised if we lose to OKC. Also won't be surprised if we get in and get swept by Denver.

Problem is the team just has no depth.

With Nance and Jose hobbled, we're down to the starters and praying Dyson and Richardson don't suck.

this is exactly why guaranteed contracts need to be a thing of the past


Zion has cashed in massively and the Pels ROI is negative for it

Here's the clip. Shams says conditioning about 50 times.

Yeah but thats on Pels. We gave him that contract based on potential only.

Seems like griff wanted to be vague because he couldn't come out and say it was due to conditioning because that would imply zion was fat and would piss off his crew

We're 4 years into this and he still can't get over the weight management. This isn't something that will ever go away it seems.

I agree with you here. Time to trade him while he has some value. This is a deep draft, I wouldn’t mind picking up some picks here.
