He was hyped as a generational player. He’s entering year 5 and still can’t stay on the court.Damn nikkas rushed in here to put the hate down
People have every right to be skeptical of him in August.
Zion is in superior shape/conditioning

Zion is a good player but not a great player and there is a large enough sample size now to point to his lack of discipline.

CJ gotta go. Zion was killing before he came back. Hard to get off with CJ being the primary ball handler and jacking the most shots. Why the Pelicans cant see this is crazy to me.

Zion has been disappointing and looking like he lost a step the entire season, trying to blame CJ for that is nonsense

Nonsense check his season averages and his numbers wirhout CJ in the lineup. What you are saying isnt true.
A player needs Three things to be an All-time great.
1. Talent - Raw ability on the court. It could be athletic explosion, court vision, great natural reading of the game, accuracy in shooting and handling and more. Teams draft players mostly based on the potential they show.
2. Hard work - You need to work hard to build stamina, improve your on your weaknesses, stay in top shape, etc
3. And lastly, that Ego! That mental edge that makes you want to be the best. You remember how Lebron/MJ were frustrated in their early years because they weren't winning? If you trash talk them and make them feel little they come back at you hard. Where ever they go they want to stand out with their perfomances. They believe they are special and it drives them to be even greator. I mean that.
When you have talent and ego but with no hard work you get the likes of James Harden. When you have limited talent but competetive edge and hard work you get your Pat Bevs and when you put all three together you will get Kobe, Lebron etc.
The league is full of talented players who have big ego's but no competetive edge. Unfortunately for Zion, he doesn't seem like he wants to be a star. He is also extremely lazy. Unless something happens, this guy will end up as a bust

Just because he’s putting up numbers means absolutely nothing
He’s lost a step & his impact has diminished. You can’t be watching games & thinking every thing is ok.
Breh gotta have some sort of condition

When in shape he’s a great player
Feels like NO is like this when it comes to his weight...
They're in a committed relationship with someone that they know is always teetering around being 1 hamburger away. They've tried saying something about it, but that person is who they are. Zion's like, "Accept me for who I am!!! Flaws and ALL". Now New Orleans like we'll see what happens, we already expressed that we don't want to marry someone that becomes a fat slob, but this is the best catch we gonna get, so we gotta roll with em and pray for the best
