point zion is never gonna be anything more than a situational look because zion can't shoot.

lakers have had to adjust nothing because the pels have a functionally broken roster without a point guard. like all they can do is get hot and nail every rebound - but even then they have zero way to control the pace against a team locked in for the playoffs

I feel like everyone knows this but does Zion know this?

Roster needs massive changes 100% but if he doesn't come into next season with some semblance of a mid-range game, then i dunno what to say

Lol horrible comparison

Bruh the Grizzlies and Pelicans both got the same team of the future hype. None of those young teams ever workout. Only the Warriors won a title as a Young team of the future

This is year 4 of Zion. He should be where Ant is right now. No reason for his team not to be the #2 seed. Ant took his spot so I hope Zion gets focused and fights for it back.

Minus injuries this is still a team sport

Willie Green is fukkin awful

 

[Paper Boi]

wtf is this team. I'm never going with the hype of these young teams. The Pelicans are this years Memphis Grizzlies. I sure as hell won't be betting on OKC either

they probably not beating whoever wins the next game

Why Reggie acting like taking a charge ain't just standing there waiting

Can't lie, a 39 year old who's legacy is pretty much set taking 2 charges against physical dudes half his age is admirable

That should be the pelicans entire offensive game plan with Ingram and McCollum being trash offensively. Get Zion on the move in pick and rolls and go down hill

Pelicans at NO point we’re getting hyped this season. They’ve been avg all year

Memphis was a top Westerm team. Once Ja is healthy I expect them to return as such

Zion is a skilled Myles Garrett on a basketball court

 

[Tres Leches]

pelicans trash they belong in the bulls/hawks bracket

I’m getting stressed by watching NO play, it’s 100% individual plays and they are still hanging on
