[@coffeeggs]

​@henry7486 you have poor comprehension. Zion IS fool's gold. You even said it yourself. He's winning you games IF he plays. But he's not. It's schrodinger's cat, but the cat is the games that he can play.

[@MoralesCorner]

You right. He has so much talent and he has shown he's capable of dominating the league if he's healthy and focused. But after his first four seasons, it's not looking like he's going to have a successful career

[@thedman05]

The problem here is that Zion’s intangibles are as questionable as his tangible, health related issues. Zion is already unsteady physically bc of his weight issues/injury issues… and mentally frankly he simply doesn’t seem to be mature yet. That means even if he’s not injured it’s not likely everything will go right. It’s hard enough to win even if everything is going right… and I don’t know that he has the intangibles to stay consistent long enough to win. History tells me it’s not likely and even if he does it a few years he’s more likely to simply be a one and done for deep playoff runs

[@Grind2Excellence]

Yeah he’s got the talent but idk about his motivation

[@thedman05]

That’s it in a nutshell. Even when healthy his motivation is also inconsistent

[@MoralesCorner]

These kids are just blessed with the physical talent to play the game and get into it chasing the lifestyle, the money and fame. They don't care about winning nor have the mental tools to do their job after they sign the first big contract. He's a multimillionaire and is still a kid. Why do people expect any better from these kids is beyond me.

[@hotboiii_ced215]

BI is who New Orleans fans love and desire to have represent the city. Zion talent is there but us fans would be fine to get that dark cloud lifted if they were to move him.

[@MusicLover-my6fo]

To me, this is Zion's last year to cash in on the 2019 draft hype. If he doesn't perform this year, I think the public will officially declare Ja Morant as the best player in the class.

[@soloistdeve]

Yeah, what a great class right? Amazing, we haven't seen anything like this before, right?

[@reveragew]

One thing is always correct: the best ability is availability

[@brucelau2023]

Honestly though, and this is just in my opinion, Zion Williamson should have not complained of what the fans have experienced over the last three seasons with him because like they literally had nothing going for themselves until Zion came because was Anthony Davis requested a trade it really just came crashing down for the pelicans and I’m really just sorry for them because Zion Williamson probably should’ve gotten traded and I’m just really amazed that he still actually a New Orleans pelican

[@keynanvarnado7592]

No NBA team can win without it's star. Zion was supposed to be that star for NO basketball. He, rightfully, recognizes the team can't win big without him on the court. No team has "anything going" for themselves if their best player misses 75+% of games. Nuggets, Bucks, 76ers, Lakers, etc. Take away Jokic, Giannis, Embiid, Lebron, etc from those teams for that number of games and they're all lottery dumpster fires too.

[@_urahara_]

MJ talked about this in an interview. He said that most of today's players are paid off based on their potential. They are offered big contracts and millions of dollars even before they played a single game. In most cases, this creates a comfort zone and most players no longer feel the need to perform and compete at the highest level. There is no hunger to prove themselves, just distractions and drama to make them feel relevant. Zion might look like a tank but he is clearly not in the best physical and mental condition to compete. Sad to say, in all the 4 years that he's in the NBA, the only thing he has proven is that he is a bust.

[@goldengod31]

Ironic considering he is a Air Jordan athlete

[@henry7486]

I don’t think you can really say he’s a bust when he had one of if not the most efficient 25+ PPG seasons of all time

[@stephaniemorehead5709]

He is definitely not a bust…he just shouldn’t be a superstar…he doesn’t have the drive…to stay in shape..not get in shape but stay in shape…when he gets hurt….he can’t or doesn’t work out…and gains weight…the injury heals up…but he’s gained like 10-20 pds of fat….he comes back…plays for like two weeks…gets hurt again…but for those two weeks…he balls out….he definitely isn’t a bust…the dude said his numbers were like 25 pts. 8 rebs.. on 65% shooting…and he can shoot free throws…

[@RRRRRRRRR33]

Exactly. This is a league based on performance, not potential... and yet, the NBA reached such a weak position, they are pampering their athletes way too much. If Zion think NOLA is treating him poorly, no one in the NBA are willing to pay for his "potential"... then hell, go play in China, let's see him earning even 5% of what he could earn in the US. The rest of the world don't care, Giannis and Luka could move to Madrid tomorrow and the rest of Europe would not even glance at it

[@adolfBBC]

Yeah exactly. Silk sheets metaphor Is super applicable. They're paid off of potential and their high school/college mixtapes. It's a shame the passion goes before we as fans get to see real hoppers. Zion is always capable of being an all star but he probably doesn't love the game.

[@Brownie05191]

Zion has a whole 305 at home and chasing him #2. Talent doesn't matter if that person never shows up to work #1. He hasn't shown true commitment to his basketball career... when there isn't Zion news during off-season we're making progress #3. Fanboys will hate on these facts.

[@markrios3256]

Yeah, it’s a real shame when you see stars like Zion, who have all the talent potential to become all Time greats but due to personal issues and injuries, it takes away from his potential, he sad like he could literally be a top five best player in the NBA easily if he didn’t have these type of problems

[@MrRapmaster19]

Would love to hear you talk about what the hell is going on with Julius Randle? Dude is putting up all-time worst numbers to start the season. Is it his injury from the playoffs last season?

[@maxmeier532]

Zion's career earnings in the first 4 years are 45 million and he played a total of 114 games, averaging 400K per game played. That's just the money he got according to his Pelicans contract. From this season on he's making about 3-4 times as before. Whether he plays or not. I dont think he has any reason to be mad. He had enough stamina to do windmills in the park and dunk on pornstars. He still might become the star on court that he has been projected to be, and I think we all hope so, but it's up to his health and his effort, and his ability to fade out the noise around him. At the same time, the next gen is passing him by left and right. What wasnt fair to him was the hype he caught before playing a single NBA game, but that comes with the territory.

I'm not a Zion-hater at all. I hope he has a great career but I have a feeling that it's just a matter of time before he gets seriously hurt again. I'm glad he made it to his 2nd rookie max. contract so, whatever happens, he's probably set for life. I have an orthopedic doctor friend, who loves the NBA, and he thinks Zion's legs appear abnormal. He says it could be genetic or the result of him being too heavy while he was growing. Hopefully, my friend is just wrong.

[@Perryvsgaming]

I was called the biggest hater because I said this was going to happen. I went around and asked people who would you rather have on your team, Zion or Luka, and why? The people that said they would take Zion said it was because he was more dominant. But I would provide a counter argument by saying does it matter how dominant a player is if he never plays? Who cares if he can average 29 ppg on 65% shooting if he plays for less than a quarter of the season. The warning signs of his injury issues were there before he even made it to the league. But because he was so good in high school and college everyone ignored it.

[@derrickhizon8535]

He stopped being an asset a long time ago. And his inability to BE and REMAIN a professional is not even questionable, he’s absolutely unable to.
