Lactating slimboi Zion still laughing atchall's hyperbolic prose.

Fat Z set rookie records ----> Jody Husky 2nd year Z yeeted on NBA soyboys. When he returns it'll be more of the same and people will stop talking.

Keep clecting yer Glenn Cellblock 4 Davis hoops bass for the ridiculous nostalgic comps.

I got nuthin' but luhhh fuya, babyboi.

Gonna ride or die with this fat boy and Im so okay with it.

CanadianKid · 11-06-2021, 08:38 PM

Where did he find slippers that size and more important, do they still fit?

Topherfoy · 11-08-2021, 08:04 PM

It’s amazing to see how many people are trashing him. Does everyone really believe he lost all his skills at a young age because of his weight gain?! He’s a smart dude and is hearing all this chatter. You can guarantee he’ll be coming back with a chip on his shoulder. This could be the best thing for his growth going forward.

What kind of chips?

That’s what I was thinking. Cool Ranch for sure.

Topherfoy · 11-08-2021, 08:30 PM

He’s probably a Pringle guy

hairyangryfella · 11-08-2021, 09:16 PM

Holy smokes.
I know people don't like Chronicles that much.
And I know Recon is ugly.

But this is a numbered, graded mint card that would have probably been $100+ previously, and it didn't even hit $40:

Wow, sucks to be that seller. This is what BASE PSA 9s were selling for just a couple months ago.

cowboyzqna · 11-08-2021, 09:47 PM

What a steal... The red on red looks great as well.

It may cost that to bulk subs with PSA moving forward if and when they finally open that service level back up.

I am having to sacrifice some Zions myself this week... Cards that would have flown off the shelves a few months ago are getting limited interest.

I don't know if Zion believers have looked into the pop count on some of the Chronicles rookies but it looks like about 20 thousand people had the same idea as far as grading Zion rooks from that set... It also looks like a ton of the product was printed.

I wouldn’t pay $10 for that. It looks awful. There are so many junk numbered Zion RCs that the cards with no eye appeal are really going to suffer.

FuzzySparkles · 11-09-2021, 05:31 AM

There are a whole lot of people on BO praying that no one has the time to look back and see all their insults to people worried that Zion was injury-prone. This guy is going to eat himself out of the league. So disappointing.

Brobocop · 11-09-2021, 07:18 AM

Is there still a bounty of $500,000 for his NT logoman?

TimBuckTwo · 11-09-2021, 10:23 AM

I saw Zion in a restaurant the other day.

I asked the waitress that was serving him what he was going to eat.

She looked at me and said why.

I replied so I would know what was left on the menu to eat.

messier2 · 11-09-2021, 10:33 AM

Have not checked in a while, Zion Prizm PSA 9 is down to almost $60? Can it hit $40???

What do you see as the Zions with the most eye appeal?

I've got:

Panini One
Revolution
Prizm
Mosaic
Select courtside
Luminance (can't see this one holding much value though)
Illusions?

Unpopular opinion, but I actually like XR. It clearly is on a different level compared to One & One, Prizm, Select, etc., but it’s a nice looking card and might be one of the toughest cards to gem compared to almost every other Zion RC (Illusions might be the only one tougher to gem). Last time I looked, only about 20% of all copies of this card sent to PSA got a 10.

Agreed - I'd put it in the Mosaic/Illusions/Select tier. Not a sweet dunking photo but one of the few nice looking action Zion shots where he's driving.

messier2 · 11-09-2021, 10:59 AM

I know this is not a popular opinion, but his Prizm Draft #1 is an awesome shot, even with a college jersey on!

Dame · 11-09-2021, 10:59 AM

I know a lot of people are invested on Prizms but his base is probably one of the ugliest, in terms of eye appeal. its up there with his Optic.

I really like his Select Courtside and One and One (though Opulence unfortunately used the same image)

Revolution is really great, it’s a staged photoshoot but it doesn’t look corny like most rookie shoots.

mma138 · 11-09-2021, 11:00 AM

hope to see you back soon zion ! hate to see all these people talking trash about him .

That's for sure my favorite dunk shot of Zion - just can't get over the Duke jersey.

I guess my favorite Zion photos are in 4 tiers:

Dunks:

Panini One
Revolution
Prizm
Luminance
Prizm DP

Action Shots:

Select Courtside
Mosaic
XR
Select Concourse
Illusions

Wildcards:

Prizm Variation
Optic

He Looks Fat/Awkward/Uninteresting:

Everything else

I wish they would've zoomed out a bit - that's my only critique of the Prizm photo.

I agree, tighter crop would give it a better perspective.
