When Zion goes out the offense just goes and takes a crap. Lucky if one pass and then dribble until the clock winds down and try a jumper. He had a little trouble with ayton but when they get him on a switch they have to feed him. When he gets his rest in the fourth quarter last few games it seems like it is how long can we hold on for wo him in. Thing they need to change that rotation or subbing schedule so he doesn’t just come back in the last three minutes

I have no clue what this team is doing anymore. And I've stopped trying to figure it out.

As soon as the 4th quarter hits the team huddles up and asks themselves, “How can we lose it tonight, boys?”

If I see them take a double digit lead late in the game and throw it away playing stagnant iso-ball, I’m gonna die.

Maybe it’s time for me to realize this team truly is hot garbage. My expectations are obviously way too high for this group. Zion doesn’t even get a pass for me this game either; he carries his fair share of blame too.

Our first round draft pick from last year is the most tenured player on the roster. I think it would be smart to temper expectations about this team

Zion was wide open for shooting a 3 at least a couple times last night. We saw him consider shooting those, but he held off.

Once he realizes he needs to take that shot 3 or 4 times a game, (instead of 0-1 times/game), it’s going to make a huge difference in this team’s success.

HUGE!

I missed out on a cheap MLB break at the LCS last night so I jumped into a Hoops premium hobby/2020-21 Hoops two box break. Walked away with a Zion premium stock RC and two Zion inserts from this year.

He has games with limited FG attempts because his offensive game is one-dimensional. Its going to happen some games

He’s back! And if it hasn’t been said already, LOL at your “one-dimensional” understanding of the game.

The people that get upset with actual real analysis of his game are the same ones that said he his card values were going to take off this year He is one dimensional. He is an amazing talent and is on a record setting HOF pace for a career. Fun to watch. But he will have nights currently where his shots are limited because he doesn't have a perimeter game and he isn't a ball dominant offensive player. That's just actual accurate analysis that really isn't controversial

I don’t necessarily disagree with this take. But, many of these “nights” you are talking about are due to lack of touches... not being one-dimensional.

The efficiency right now speaks for itself.

He's just stating the obvious, though.

Point is, if you havent actually tuned into the games this season you probably haven't seen the parts of his game that he has honed in on, and is currently dominating with.

Does he got a Ray Allen pull up J? Obviously not. His game hasn't been based around that type of offense. He's 20 years old. He'll get better at his weaknesses.

Currently, as a one-dimensional player, he is already dominating is his one dimension lol

Agree, he is having an unbelievable year...so FUN to watch! He is doing insane things. My comment was just around why some nights he gets limited shots....if he was a ball dominant player or shot outside as well you would see less swings in how many shots he would get, etc. Agree the Pels are a mess and influence that too. I am not a BI fan at all.

But I didn't think I was stating anything that most people wouldn't agree with for the most part

23 points on 11 shots and 72 percent shooting.


What is YOUR favorite player doing on 11 shots?


Being a trolling protagonist is something I can relate to on a non technical level, but do better.

I said he is playing awesome. I agree that is a great output on 11 shots. Look at what I said..(which was echoed on ESPN today btw)….he will have games where he doesn't get as many shots as ball dominant players. That's just a fact. My goodness. Does the fact you are losing money on your Zion investments have so you sensitive?

He doesn't get as many shots because the franchise is currently dysfunctional. Not NASA science. Any NBA reddit thread from people with 2 functioning eyes can see SVG is not utilizing Zion correctly or to his fullest potential. Does the fact you're a cacomorphobe have you so continuously glued to this thread? It's fascinating, honestly.

Problem with you is..Zion could go out there and make like 8 3s..have a triple double, have a 1080 spin dunk that breaks the hoop and shatters the backboard, donates 1 million to charity at halftime...and you'd either come on this topic and hate somehow or just disappear because he played a great game.

Point being you're an obvious hater like some others on this forum.

Seems to be a great gig getting jobs off the strength of a last name. I'd prefer Jeff at this point, but son's built like a Korean gamer and I doubt he'd know what to do with all dat a**, either.
