Man 265 would change things so much. Zion isn’t the most skilled player but he has that much raw talent. Raw talent dude is second to none but he just doesn’t have the mentality. He’s still an all star caliber player when he’s north of 300, imagine 260.
Every dayer. Thanks Jake for all you do! Question: What's going on with EJ Liddell? Why didn't Willie play him this last season? Do you see that he has a future in the NBA? With the Pels?
Wow. In his field of work, Naji Marshall is one of the best 450 people in the world. U can't get that from Walmart. As a fan we often over value players, I'm not saying he's a great NBA player but he's a rotation guy in the NBA. That's respectable.
Problem is he and Jose were responsible for bringing the team back from being down when the starters where losing there minutes. And we won't have him next season.
@@virginmax what does that have to do with a mindset…..ja sat out all year and still has more career games played then Zion…Zion leaving NOLA before his contract ends to go and win in a big market
@@noahfontenot2003 Ja Morant has injury history as well. And what mindset does he have? I don't see Zion waving guns around and missing seasons for court cases. And believe me that's not a shit to Ja. But you gotta give Zion his credit for staying out of trouble and keeping it about basketball.
His middy from 8-15 feet is money but he never shoots them. He had made his last 5 last season and was taking 1-2 per game the last week of the season. He's ALWAYS been able to consistently hit spot up 3's, but he never spots up. He needs to to spread the floor without the ball next season.
Lmao are you kidding me? Zion needs to 1. Lay off the cheese burgers 2. Lay off the IG thots and even 3. Request a trade. I'm a non athlete and while I can exactly say what he needs from an organization, it's clear that New Orleans don't have it.
Pfft... this year will be different. I've heard that every off-season Zion has been in the league. Yall will tell us one mo again how Zion is gonna be better, and I betcha he shows up at 400 pounds. Even if he plays more than 50 games, he'll run away when the pressure mounts. Trade Zion. His value will never be higher, promise ya.
Well, first people wanted to know if he could play a whole season. He did that. 71 games. He added a jumper as well. Yea you can trade him, but for who? He's 23. This season was a harsh reality check for the league. The West is too good. You need athleticism and AND skill to win. Luka and Jokic getting cooked proved that. Not many guys in this league are stronger, faster, and smarter than Zion. And he just proved he can play an entire season.its not like the pelicans are the Lakers or Celtics. New Orleans never won anything to be on some typa high horse.
If Z comes back better than his peak… you got TM3 going to be better, Herb(idk how much better he can get I thought he was superb last Yr) stronger, JHawk bigger faster stronger, CJ 3 Yrs in a role …. And then a BI Trade….BI is an unfourtunate casualty… I would love to build around BI, but he does dribble a lot, and off ball didn’t make himself a 3 Pt Threat… so as good as a playmaker he is.. add injuries and you have to chose one, and we drafted Z #1 so I see why Zion and just on eye test alone when Z is hot he’s top 10 and his game is basic… BI for Markenenn and we are leathal
Man F all dat. Can Zion get a better dribble package on 2K got damnit? He dribbles like a guard. Very Wade like because he is gone by the 2nd or 3rd dribble. Still. His size up package is guard like in real life, so is his in motion dribble moves. Fox that ish. Also. +Paul George for BI. +Klay to NO for less $ if you can still get Tre thru trade. Hell no to Jimmy no matter the situation. Yes to Dejunte Murray if you can still get a Klay like player for less. If not Tre, you gotta pull in a vet with Djounte.
Sorry Jake. I can’t trust Zion. First to consistently be at post all star weight and 2nd to stay healthy all season consistently. He has strained a hamstring 3 different times, torn his meniscus, broke his hand and foot. I just can’t trust him to stay healthy
Mac mcclung, the G league mvp can score, handle and dish. Pels can get him for nothing. He's also the dunk champ the last 2 years and will draw fans to n.o.
All Zion gotta do to be better than the last 5 seasons is score one PLAYOFF POINT. Hopefully it happens Jake.
just log in one min💀💀
What we learn from the Celtics is we need to keep Zion and BI together. Move CJ if you have to
Especially if B I stays and Trey starts at the 4 he starts in shape he and Ingram will work no trading B I
GO ZION! My Favorite player!
So you’re saying he’s lost thirty pounds and has changed his work ethic and is also ready to put the franchise first?!?
At least get to 265 and just work on shooting, speed and agility drills.

He'll still have his frame but slimmer a Lil bit

I'd take a hard bet he will get hurt and won't be available come post season. I have no other indication that outcome will be any different.
Wow.

I want to see zion make it please drop 30bls
He doesn’t have that killer instinct like players like ja if he did we would be contenders
Ja played this year?

I hate bugs too! Other thread, agree if we are going to be great, we need our great player be great. Go Zion!
It sounds like you’re saying, without great mid range or 3-point shooting, that Z is one dimensional. Can the pels win a championship that way?
With Bullyball? Yes. See Milwaukee.
His middy from 8-15 feet is money but he never shoots them. He had made his last 5 last season and was taking 1-2 per game the last week of the season.
He's ALWAYS been able to consistently hit spot up 3's, but he never spots up. He needs to to spread the floor without the ball next season.
@@jaredculbertson3800Zion ain't Giannis. he can defend, and rebound Zion is out of shape
The Finals is over. News is that we can now negotiate with our free agents and contracts.
Will the Pels be active immediately?
Every dayer!! 🇵🇭🇵🇭
Wake me up when Z plays a playoff series
@@mont-doggBeats 😂
Make his weaknesses to strengths
He's due....🏀🇬🇧
Hi Jake
Every🏀dayer
They win more games with averaging 30 assist per game
Lmao are you kidding me? Zion needs to 1. Lay off the cheese burgers 2. Lay off the IG thots and even 3. Request a trade. I'm a non athlete and while I can exactly say what he needs from an organization, it's clear that New Orleans don't have it.
Every dayer
Zion needs to quit being a pathetic rebounder.
They are using Zion like a point guard and have no one to come off the bench. Trade him for Edey, keep Ingram and look for point guard

If Zion expands his game and we get more 3 and D with a rim protector … BI to Brooklyn Claxton, Bridges/CamJ, and who ever
