re: Zion is so freaking good

I also like what I saw from Boston Jr and karlo this year
I think Cena is filming a movie in Africa this month so it's easier for him to go to the European shows.
What I find strange is people who hate Angel Reese are constantly keeping track of everything she says or does. Reese is not some main stream star like LeBron you have to actively search for info on her and what's she doing
Hawk back terrifies me, if he can get it right I think his 3 point shot would come around.
Yeah the needed Robby getting hurt to give them the motivation needed for Johnny to reclaim Cobra Kai. Seeing Miguel and Johnny in the black and yellow cobra Kai gi again was so hype
The difference is a out of shape Luka or Joker are still generational players out of shape Zion is the biggest waste of potential in sports history
No matter how much the Pels suck this stuff right here is why I love having a NBA team. No other sport brings this type of entertainment it's legit year round craziness. Luka must of banged the Mavs gm wife this is the only logical explanation for dude to go scorched earth like this.
I'm legit speechless why would the Mavs do this? And does Lebron get traded?

Flagg is the only guy in this draft I would trade Trey for. There other players in the draft with great potential but the draft is such a crap shoot that I'm not going to risk the sure thing we have in Trey on the small chance we draft a player who becomes better than him.
Yeah a Zion trade would be something that happens in the off-season when teams draft capital is clear what they have available and the value of the pick

Hunter is a good player but is always hurt, so he's a perfect fit
quote:

do realize Dyson would still be in college if he followed Herbs track. What was he shooting at Bama his last year? Give me those numbers, against amateurs. There’s a reason he dropped to the 2nd after being the SEC player of the year and SEC defensive player of the year.


That's the problem Dyson is not in college he is racking up NBA years and his extension will be based on potential. Dyson and Herb are in the same mold and Herb is a better player, when the Pels drafted Dyson they thought he could be a lead guard but that's not the case and with us already having Herb he didn't have a place on this team.

It's amazing how underrated Herb still is on the board by some give me Herb and his contact every day over Dyson.
quote:

He’s also 5-6 years older. Dyson is currently on pace to have a top ten season all time in steals. I’d be shocked if he’s not replacing Herb this year on the all defensive team….


I really don't care how much older Herb is, Dyson is in his 3rd year and shooting 31% from 3 and 60% from the line you just can't be a effective guard shooting like that. Plus I'm really curious what the Hawks are going to offer Dyson when it comes time to talk about a contract extension.
I would also add I hope we can sign Brandon Boston to a Naji Jose type of deal. Dude is a nice bench piece.

I like TM3 a lot, but he's part of the 12-37.


What are you even talking about most young stars develop because there teams are bad giving them opportunities to do more. What the Pels have learned is that Trey can be a legit #2 option on a team.
quote:

They have nothing to do with injury prevention.


It's amazing how many on here don't understand this.

The only explanation for the injuries is Pels life, I came to terms when Boogie got hurt.

Very few players in the league can create the gravity that Zion does. AD talks about it every game the Wall teams create trying to stop Zion from getting into the paint and Trey is the perfect player to play off that gravity Zion creates. That's why everything else that comes with Zion is so frustrating if dude just cared he be a top 5 player.
The fact they suspended Zion shows they don't plan on trading him in the near future. If they where planning on trading him they would have kept the story of him being late for practice and planes under wraps.

I don't mind at all giving CJ the last shot he got a good look on a shot he usually makes it just bounced out.

If Zion wants to take last shots maybe he should try being a professional and earn the right to have the ball in your hand in those situations

re: Zion out, Trey still out

Since your obviously a new fan I'll spell it out for you. The last thing a team who is 7-30 need to be concerned about is trying to get wins. Zion just missed 27 games because of a hamstring and you want to play him on a back to back to try and win a game against the fricking Trailblazer.

And what is the benefit of firing Willie now they have no chance of making the playoffs and Willie has proven to be a general Patton tier tank commander
