Meh...not to worried about a meniscus surgery...

Lonnie tore his meniscus in college...and then tore it again on a non contact play last year in preseason...

Dude still jumps out the gym and you would never know he tore his meniscus...TWICE...

He hasn't even played a regular season game yet and already might have to change his playing style.

He needs to get down to at least 260. It's not like he will become soft after he shreds down.
It's almost like someone said this from the very start, yet nikkas were yelling with their keyboards trying to argue differently.

Do y'all know who this might've been?

Wait, so what type of surgeries did Westbrook have? He never missed a season, but would miss weeks at a time that season KD won MVP. I think he had surgery this past offseason too.

There is a subset of people on the coli that legitimately get heated and annoyed when people mention's Zion's weight...

Why?

Weight impacts a lot of things on an athlete...especially tendons and joints....why is mentioning that such a taboo thing?

And certainly no one in their right mind would think that that on a surgically repaired knee he should keep that same weight?

Zion is going to be an NBA wing.....agility, lateral movement, explosiveness from standstill, elevation, cutting, All that has to be done on those knees going forward

Stop sticking your head in the sand talking about that is his build.....people reshape their bodies all the time in pro sports.....He doesnt suddenly have to become skinny which he probably cant but 250-260 is likely the sweet spot for him.....

He is strong now...he will be strong at the lower weight too

He got his repaired which doesn't sound like what Zion is doing. He also had 2 more surgeries during the season that year to reduce swelling, but still played around 45 games on limited minutes & sitting out back to backs. He's had cleanup stuff done the last few years before the season.

1. It's a meme--people were basically saying it enough so they "would be right" went it happen
2. We acting like he has a history of physical problems
3. He's not the first or last (future) All-Star that may have to sit out his rookie year
4. None of ya'll are doctors :laugh:
