Zion on returning: Physically I'm fine, now it's just a matter of when I feel like Zion. Admits it’s more mental

[Rekkapryde]

Pelicans easily a championship contender with Zion

that's what infuriates a lot of people.

 

[Rev]

the only bright side is that the dude turns 23 years old this summer. hope he can figure out how to get over the mental hurdles with the right perspective and the right people around him sooner than later.

i'm riding for the kid until the wheels fall off.

contract kicks in next season, should be 100% healthy physically...hope the turning point begins now.

come on Z...get to it!

 

[the elastic]

Somehow, he will win a ring

 

[The Villain]

He need to get his ass out there. He could give them 20 mins rn

 

[ABlackMan]

He has to lose 40lbs and rebuild it all muscle bro there’s nothing wrong with him besides the weight. Damn at 240 at 6’0 I KNOW I needed to EXILE weight dawg that shyt ain’t lost lol it’s never coming back!!!!

Fam play ball! gotta have explosiveness and finesse.

None of which comes with being heavyset.

 

[ABlackMan]

That video of him gathering to dunk like come on with that husky ass takeoff bruh

 

[Po pimp]

You're being purposely dense now.

I get it. You like to make excuses for grown ass nikkas. I don't.

Let's just leave it at that.

You compared a dude coming off an injury and coming back for an elimination game to you feeling too tired to go to the gym but you doing it, but I’m the one being dense…

They are done now. Fat boy gets his chance next season. Probably will be injured by November tho.

 

[NoMorePie]

If Zion isn't somehow someway ready to go come opening night then he needs to be BLASTED

 

[Gus Money]

I’m sorry but Zion can’t be doing this and not playing

Wait this was before the play-in game? Between this and the interview I’m not sure wtf the Pelicans PR team is thinking (if they even have one which is a good question at this point).

 

[Braman]

Deja vu to Ben Simmons

My comment on that at the time:

Get used to this. That whole gen z overuse of ‘mental health’ is gonna be used more and more.

These new nggas are fukkin broken

 

[7th Letter Specialist]

nikka Amazon is hiring for forklift drivers signed up and give that contract up

That big ass nikka could BE the forklift. Picking shyt up by hand like "ay, where y'all want this?"

 

[ABlackMan]

That’s not the same at all. Name a player that returned for an elimination game after already missing several months.

I’ll take Paul George for 10,000

 

[7th Letter Specialist]

LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

toss Wiseman in there, Zo, Okafor and get that bust starting 5 in order.

At least 15 dudes easily can fill the bench

I thought Wiseman was low-key been ballin in Detroit
