Zion Heard The “FAT” Talk And Got REAL MAD…

Zion heard everything for the past few days and he got real mad.
This is the number 1 defense in the league looking like a bunch of little kids against Williamson as he dropped 36 on Minnesota on phenomenal efficiency.
This is both Gobert and Kat chest to chest against Zion and there’s nothing they could do about it once big Z went incredible hulk on them.
So everything is fixed now I guess. We should all apologize to Zion and move on right? No, of course not. I’m not gonna flip flop game by game depending on how many points he scores.
It’s about consistency and reaching his potential.
You can’t look great for one game and be a complete non factor in the other one. I’m serious, that game against the Lakers was the worst that I’ve seen a superstar look on the court in a while. I’m not talking about a bad shooting game, going 0-10 from the field.
This looked like they had him completely figured out. He had no moves that he could pull off to even fight against them.
Somebody tried to defend him on twitter saying that Williamson is averaging more points than guys like Julius Randle, Demar Derozan and Jimmy Butler.
But that’s not the point. None of these guys has the potential of being the best player in the NBA. None of them can be as dominant as Williamson can.
This is part of the problem at the moment tho. That dominance is only displayed when the opposing team doesn’t have a guy strong enough to fight against him. If they have the personnel and the strategy to sustain Zion’s physicality, there’s really not much else there.
And how could there be more, when the guy is even struggling to be in playing shape, how hard do you think he’s working on improving his skills?
There’s zero improvement on his shot, he still can’t shoot, and he’s got no back to the basket game-nothing.
I talked about this in my previous video, the only way you see him get buckets is this bullyball. Which looks great when the opposing big man is inferior in terms of physical abilities.
But heck, I’m also dominant and playing bullyball against my 7 year old niece, but with the rest of the competition I suck.
Jokes aside about my basketball skills, Gilbert Arenas actually stood behind Zion and defended him after he got heavily criticized by Shaq and Barkley on his conditioning.
But how can you say all that when literally a few months ago, Zion admitted this to you:
And he said he got all the wisdom and he would change but we are yet to see that.
With all that being said tho, even with all the injuries that they had at the start, the Pelicans are just 1 and a half games out of the 6th spot that gets them straight into the playoffs.
And look at their next stretch of games. Washington, Charlotte, San Antonio, Memphis, Cleveland, Houston, Memphis and Utah. This is a tremendous opportunity for them to build a nice winning streak, get some good momentum and hopefully change the narrative with some great play for Zion.
But as we’ve all been saying, this has to be sustainable over the long run.
For those of you that haven’t seen it, this is how the Lakers exposed him in the tournament. Check it out here. Talk to you in the next one. Peace out.
