I mean I'm not sure what more anyone would want from him at this point other than a few more highlight reel dunks. He's averaging around 24/8/3, leading the league in FG% for those with more than 8.5 FGA per game, and is #10 in PER, ahead of Lebron/Curry/Trae/Harden. I guess he's *too* ruthlessly efficient?

Gonna need to see more bricks, ill advised shots, and stretches where he dominates possessions with almost no FG’s to show for it, especially late in the game.

Until he figures out how to miss more shots, he will never be a star.

If he averaged 40ppg on 35% shooting then investors would love that better.

My sarcastic comment earlier didn’t do your post justice.

On top of his other scary good numbers, I saw that he moved up to #10 in PER this morning as well. Not too shabby for a 20 year old. His FG percentage has almost hit 60 percent, which is crazy for a top 20 scorer.

People have a lot of “feelings” one way or another about Zion’s future, but the writing is on the wall. Can he improve facets of his game? Sure. Is he killing it right now? YES.

How many people were capable of scoring more than he has this many games in? Here’s the list: 1. MJ (end of list). Now you also have to remember MJ wasn’t 20 at this time either and Zion’s FG percentage in this stretch is unparalleled.

Now, he’s not going to be MJ, but he doesn’t have to be. He’s going to carve his own path. Can’t wait to see what the future holds for this kid.

Buying some "low-end" Zion with good action shots because they look cool. Also in 20 years they may be his most valuable cards who knows. I tend to assume people will value fatboi in a cool pose rather than just standing. I guess because it's also what I value more. The action shot of his dunk last night better be on some cards in the future

Been doing the same a bit myself (very low end for me). Which cards do you like?

Luminance has one of the best action shots of the year, imo.

newclecter22: it moved.

Well done.

Get yourself a couple Revolution and Luminance. They're so cheap but they're one of his best looking RC's out there.

Revolution 101 base? Awesome photo. Edges look pretty rough on some of the raw ones on eBay right now.

If you can afford at least a PSA 9 those are really good deal IMO.

Feelings mutual, my brother!

Zion NT RPA /5 doing great at Heritage. $250,000+ after BP. Hard to say with straight face but relative to other wax, 2019 NT feels underpriced.

whodatbeastly16 · 02-04-2021, 11:46 PM

I appreciate the advice y'all. I'll check out those for some cool action shots. I just got a Phoenix one and a couple mosaic for really cheap. That tribute card of Zion from this year's Hoops looks amazing too but definitely overpriced b/c of release.

One question and if no one wants to answer it's fine because I probably should just look up a Youtube video or something, but how do you tell how good a card's centering is based on an ebay picture? Do you just compare it to like the one on the checklist or something?

Also, if y'all have any more suggestions for cool Zion cards or action shots please put them. Haven't been in the fold for a while and have no clue about the 10s of Panini products these days. I'm the type of collector who sells when my player leaves the team I root for typically. Hopefully Zion can stay on the Pelicans for his whole career, but who knows at this point and he's already one of my favorite players so maybe it'll be different this time.
