I wonder about Zion. Seems like we all assume that his chronic injury problems are related to his weight and maybe that's true. But part of makes him so unique is how explosive he is with all that bulk; with dudes just bouncing off him in the air. I question whether he'd still be the same guy in terms of effectiveness, if he gets significantly skinnier.
Hopefully, there's a sweet spot he can get to where he maintains his freakishness but also becomes more durable.

How about 1 song?
The first time I went to my boys house who had cable internet
I was in legitimate shock at the lightning speed of his Kazaa/Limewire downloads. Songs were downloading in less than 10 seconds.

Injuries getting to my dog Zion’s mental
:/
Hope the team can get him in touch with top sports psychologists instead of ignoring it and letting things simmer inside his head.

At this point, is it considered taking a flyer on ZW?
Keep Obi at all costs.
Lawd, NY would be in a win-win situation convincing NO to plug 2X AS/ANBA Ironman forward Julius Randle into the fold between HIMgram & CJ.
NY could survive with or without ZW if the only loss to the forward spot is Dubious. I think he’ll thrive even more with less cache and leadership responsibilities.
His penchants for losing his mind midgame prevents him from reaching superstar status & thus prevents him from being a capable leader.
He’s also familiar to the building. It’s sorta like a homecoming thing too.

Zion showed us everything we need to know about him when he was injured and unable to play but was posting videos of himself doing 360 windmills In practice.

Another cherished moment in those days was when you would be on one of those music share apps and you would come to find out an album leaked a week or two early

275 in high school, officially 285 at Duke. He would still be amongst the strongest guys in the league around 260. Still a freak athlete with ridiculous touch around the rim. He’d still be 27ppg
He won’t have any longevity in the league if he’s heavier than Joel Embiid at 5 inches shorter.

Yeah my homie got that cable speed in Fall 2000 and it was heaven. Big time gambling family so Sundays were crazy. We'd always have espn.com reloading the boxscores while we were downloading tunes on Kazaa.

I swear the way that their respective teams view the likes of Trae and Luka is literally the complete opposite

Yep. And I’d normally say this was overkill for someone his age, but he should probably go all-in with his own fitness team - MD/trainer/nutritionist/personal chef.
