Hang on...it makes perfect sense why he wouldn't be into New Orleans. Think about it..you're a young teen and a "step dad" is trying to control and influence your life and seems super religious? It's normal for teenagers to rebel against parents at Zion's age, against step fathers in particular and against religion at that age in particular...it makes perfect sense. Step dad wanted me to go there...I want something else, I want my BIG DREAM of the BIG APPLE. I'm not saying I'm correct, yet I wouldn't be surprised.

@@KB-qk1ic that gives the organization way too much power, I’d rather the nba not go the route of the nfl where the owners literally don’t have to honor their contracts, if a player gets injured on the job, the only way that doing that would be just is if you worked it like a cap adjustment, pay them their entire contract, but make the salary on the books lower to give the team some more cap space, there needs to be parity, however, owners shouldn’t be able to say “fuck this guy, I signed him to a 6 year extension & he got injured in a game”, to do that is complete bs because these guys are underpaid if they are performing well their first four years, you’re not just paying them for the work they’re going to do for your team, you’re paying them for the 2 all nba appearances and 3 playoff births you got out of their rookie contract, if a player just quits on their team, they should be punished, but if you’re injured, you’ve, and I don’t mean to offend any service people by saying this, you’ve essentially fallen in the line of duty

Would be amazing if Zion ended up on the Knicks, but I'd definitely feel bad for N.O. However, if they can get Randle back with picks, or make it a three team deal and get another quality piece. It really wouldn't be bad. If they could keep C.J., Ingram and Randle, that'd be a really nice team because I think B.I. is about to be a 28+ ppg consistently over the next few seasons.

Why in the fuck would he want to be traded? I’m a pistons fan so not biased but the pels actually look good if he comes back!! Where does he want to go??? Shit makes no sense and I think we are looking far too much into it… it feels to me that’s hes dealing with depression from all of the outside voices shaming him for being out of shape and for being fat.. this is making him want to shelter himself and not be around anyone especially out in public.. he’s probably living day to day thinking that once he can get to a point where he feels confident again then he can come out of no where all ready to go.. the problem is that it takes time and sometimes when your mindset is like this tomorrow never comes.. I’d be surprised if another team would be willing to give up much for such an uncertain future for him tbh

If the Knicks realistically wanted Zion they'd have to put out an initial offer of Randle, Quickley and at least 2 x 1st round picks for just Zion plus some random dump contract if they need to make the money work. The question is whether Zion is worth the potential risk. Personally, if I was Scott Perry and Leon Rose, I would 100% say yes to this deal especially given how Julius has been with on court shit this year. A somewhat healthy Zion would be a major improvement over Randle especially with his past successes in college playing alongside RJ, and in NOLAs case they get a really good PF who could possibly pair well with Ingram and JV as a physical net presence. If Julius has a fresh start and less fan pressure NOLA could be a perfect fit for him. The addition of Quickley to boot would also be a great bolster to their guard core with CJ and Hart plus those 1sts will likely be top10 picks which is even better if NOLA wants to properly rebuild around CJ+Ingram.

Zion doesn't have the leverage to force a trade. Yes he looked phenomenal the games he played but his lack of playing has overshadowed that at this point. If he gets offered a max extension he should thank his lucky stars. Foot injuries are tricky. I hope he comes back healthy and reaches his potential. He'll be worth every penny of that extension but at this point I'm don't see that happening. If he is trying to force his way out then clearly he thinks he's going to be healthy long term. Which is a good sign. That would be the only way he gets paid megs dollars in the future.

There was a Mardi Gras float poking fun at Zion calling him 1 ton with a painting of him looking fat. Honestly he brought that on himself. The fans here are aware of the Zion situation, but like I said, if he was playing on any other team, he would be playing. I don't know if it's an organizational thing or New Orleans portrayed in a negative light in the media, but Zion makes the 3rd "superstar" that doesn't want to be here. Meanwhile Drew Bress could run for mayor of New Orleans and win in a land slide, so would Sean Payton.

He should switch to the saints, he could be a monster at tite end. But for real, it is the most explicit case of lack of communication ive seen in sports recently. With daily life health on the line, it is time to speak up and ask for a change, his silence and lack of commitment is his way to say "i dont want to be here". But if he wont speak, him and the pelicans will be stuck in this trap and couldn't rebuild themselves. Zion need it physically and mentally, and the pelicans system needs to (in my opinion) acquire better management, training crew, medical staff, because something needs to be shaken if they messed up to first pick big men in a seven year margin. Also setting Cj McCollum as a leader in a rebuild is a great idea, he is mature and can be the the one who get the best from the pelicans roster.

That would be pretty foolish if so. What Kawhi did was short sighted and kind of silly but also somewhat understandable given he was butting heads with Pop and didn't feel comfortable with their medical staff. Zion hasn't gone through, as far as we know, anything near as bad. The organization has been intent on trying to keep him and has built a very good roster around him. The loss of Ball was unfortunate, but they got McCollum for cheap and Valanciunas has played exceptionally well. A great team is waiting for him and a great opportunity. And he doesn't have near enough seasons under his belt to be playing around with this injury. If teams feel he's badly injury prone this early in his career, it's only gone drive his value down hard.

If I was the GM of the Pels at this point I'd have a long con going to trade Zion for Ja Morant or If it comes to it trade him for a young core of talent and some 1st round picks. He does not want to be there, he will be an oft injured player and will decline way faster than the average player and will most likely be over weight and nothing like his college self. Sadly he could become the highest paid NBA player of all time if he was dedicated to fitness but he will most likely be the wealthiest bust in NBA history if he doesn't take his fitness seriously.

I’ve been watching Zion since he was in high school(who hasn’t? Lol), and am a huge fan, but I think NBA should just get rid of people who does this. Brings 0 value to the team and NBA at this point, as well as getting payed millions just to get caught up on emotions and not play?

The Pelicans are middle of the pack in attendance, they just traded for a Star in CJ McCollum who wanted to be here, and they have a owner who said that even when she dies the Pelicans will be donated to the City of New Orleans until a owner from New Orleans is able to buy the team. Stop the capping💯💯💯
