Lol they said cuz Zo played hard and nearly brought the team back in the 3rd quarter. And he did "other things" even though he had a bad shooting night. They have every excuse in the book for their faves but will shyt on BI no matter what.
Tbh, cant have Lottery picks perform poorly imo. So much is expected especially from year 2

I'm still in awe of how Zo fukked that oop up.

None of the young guys are consistent. They need Bron and Rondos guiding hand. Next season is do or die for all of them though.

Nah all the young dudes were underwhelming against a depleted Jazz team. BI had a nice first quarter but disappeared the rest of the game. Breh should've been way more aggressive. Kuz and Zo had a bad shooting night.

Zo always has a bad shooting night. Not sure why they let this fool still jack up shots. He needs to be benched.

Idk what's going on with Zo. It's gotta be a mental thing. It's like if he misses his first attempt it messes with his confidence. Abd he has to get better at finishing at the rim.

Its not mental. He has had more playing time than he deserves based on his numbers. He just don't got it. His college game has not translated to the next level and It is what it is. Yall are expecting to him to be something he is not. He is not capable of finishing around the rim. He stays getting blocked. He is not capable of shooting better in game. Only thing he should be able to improve is his free throw shooting. Other than that he is just not able to compete offensively in the league.

I have to agree unfortunately. There’s no reason a 6’6” guard as athletic as Zo can’t to the rim and finish or even draw fouls. Then in the rare case he does make it to the line, his shooting is abhorrent. He’s not making the progress I thought he would this year in that aspect.

You can’t be bad at shooting and finishing. You can be one or the other and survive in the NBA. Both is an issue.
