Absolute chicken shite move on his part.

Shooting around and dunking before a playoff game where a day before you said you were 100% physically and then sit is a complete frick you to everyone in that building supporting the Pels.

Really long off season incoming for the front office.

Complete bullshite.

I said it last night, but I'm pretty sure the same thing happened last season. This franchise doesn't learn from its mistakes.

Mike or Kobe would be punching the fat kid in the face for not taking his job seriously. Zion isn’t getting anywhere in today’s NBA but he sure wouldn’t survive on a team with Mike or Kobe on it. Or KG. They’d all be popping him in the mouth in practice. They’d break his soft arse down.

This, that dude can go frick himself after that stunt. It's one thing to take a few shots and see how you feel but showboating like that feels like a solid "frick you" to everyone, especially after these last couple days.

I agree, and it’s infuriating.

How do we go from complete gaslighting/silence for three months … then suddenly Zion “speaks” and makes it 100x worse, and then the next day go out and do that in public in front of fans and media.

Zion is a fricking clown and this organization is a clown show for letting all of this happen.

The city was ready to embrace Zion and this team and they blew it and pissed fans off at the same time.

Yea, this is a melt

This must be part of he and step daddy’s plan to get shipped out. Appear completely disgruntled and disinterested in playing that they have no choice but to trade you. He’s completely useless to this franchise now.

This is what gets me, why sign the extension? You could have been demanding a trade and gotten shipped out earlier and still get paid.

Pretty common practice to get that extension from the team that has your bird rights since they can pay you the most for the longest amount of time, then wait a year to request your trade.

I really don't think Zion has an issue with the city or his teammates.

I think it's a battle between his camp and Griffin.

Zion is immature and trusts his dumbass stepdad. Bottom line.

It's so common. Uncle Dennis. Ja's Dad. Iverson's posse. These dudes are too loyal to hanger ons.

It's the AAU culture. Toxic.

Man I’ve seen more highlights of Zion in warm ups than highlights of Zion in the game.

He would have gotten paid less though. The max extension is higher with the team that drafted you, so it's in a player's best financial interest to sign the extension then figure out an exit plan later.

Plus he had spent most of his first 3 years on the bench.

Of course he signed the max "guaranteed" extension.
