So what is it going to take for him to focus on basketball instead of wanting to be a street thug? Being drafted #2 overall in the NBA? A $200 million guaranteed contract? Being the face of a small market franchise and having the team built around him? A 3 year old daughter to be a example for? An 8 game suspension, loss of nearly $700k in salary and counseling for his indiscretions? A second suspension for the same exact issues? What next?

The latter can likely be fixed and lead to a great career. The former can’t be fixed.

how fricking sad its come to this.

I guess I would bet on morant having the come to Jesus moment. oh shite they are serious.

I dont see zion comprehending what it takes to be fit or to work on his game. and so, he will be terrific until the next injury and then not play a long long long time. and meanwhile he's not been healthy enough to learn to shoot.
I divorced zion after he was unwilling to play in the playin.
if I'm TD gm I play him a week of summer league and see him dominate and I'm dealing him for the haul.

morants 2nd gun instance blows my mind.

in the redraft of the zion morant class I guess garland is now the correct answer.

damn.
