The Official NBA Season Thread: NBA Cup Night

So about Zion and potential trades, seems like there a quite a few Blazer fans I know that want to deal our pick and someone for him. I just don’t see it making sense. Dude can’t keep healthy and can’t keep food out of his mouth and doesn’t seem to actually really want to play. Am I wrong for that view on thinking he just isn’t worth it from how his career has gone up to this point?

Those are just the public ones.

Real G’s move in silence like lasagna

And THOSE are the ones you decide to go public with?

Dude is just a country boy who ain’t never got any you know what growing up.

Men are more in their feelings over Zion than the p*stars he’s kissing and crushing.

Weird state of affairs but here we are.

Misogyny takes men of all classes devaluing women seen as less than 'respectable'

Games played after 4 seasons:

Zion 114
Joel 94

 

[Cashflow]

He’s shooting 2 for 15 with 5 points off the court

With 100+ m’s dude should be pulling in nothing but certified dimes

They might be 5s to you! But to Big Zion they might be dimes. Let that man cook.

Why y’all pressed about the “quality” of his work? He’s clearly happy with his garden tools!

 

[Cashflow]

Can’t even be mad at this guy. Joker having the best week ever!

Naw completely reasonable take. Teams feel like they have to make a move on a player and it only sets them further back. Zion has shown the signs he doesn’t wanna be in the league. I wouldn’t trade for the guy. Wouldn’t play the “what if” game.

You have to trade for Zion tho if he comes at the right price.

Dubious & some draft stock.

Take it or leave it [most likely].

I would’ve gave him 40 personally

 

[Iron Man]

lol 25 games for ja?? got us waiting 2 weeks for the weakest suspension in league history. silver is a joke and should be relieved of his duty as commissioner

How long should he have been suspended

Miami
Knicks
Lakers

 

[pmatic]

Knicks probably offer the most start from scratch contracts, and they have a bunch of picks from other teams they can toss to the Wizards.

[Mister Meaner]

Knicks also have the Wiz’ ‘24 first.

No thanks to Beal for what he’s gonna cost on the backend.

Doesn’t seem like a Leon move but anything can happen.

 

[picasso swerve]

Shoudda been like 40 games (half the season) so it would be like “wow they dropped it on Ja”. 25 a lot got people saying oh that aint too bad. It shoudnt be “it aint too bad”.

Exactly, plus he plays 0 defence which doesn't really fit anything the Blazers need. But the upside is that he can become a top 10 player and a cornerstone for your franchise for the next 7 years. Remember when the Pels were the #1 seed when he was healthy?

When you're dealing with Zion, you're dealing with extremes.
