    For how long? Assuming you trade for him you’ll have to negotiate a new one in the not too distant future. Will he accept such a restriction next time?

    Have you seen the scene from everything all at once where they battle to be the first to jump their anus on a giant dildo?

    You have to accept some posters are just clueless. DD would have traded Jalen and Jabari for Bolbol last year.

    We are all just posters it doesnt cost us anything to make posts here on CF. But if it were actually our job I doubt majority of people would do the stuff they post on here lol.

    Like Bobby keeps boosting Reed Sheppard and blaming Ime Udoka if his job was actually on the line I doubt he even plays Reed 5 mins a game. Knowing how toxic he is he would prob be the biggest Reed hater if his job depended on Reed actually playing well.

    I would absolutely gamble on Zion Williamson. If he got on all fours, his back would make a sizeable poker table.

    i had handsome zion on my 2k team and breh prolly only missed 10-15 games max a season and was basically automatic from anywhere in the paint. he could average 50ppg if i didn't have 99 rated jontro at the pg needing to average trippa dubs.

    I said it essentially his first year and stayed consistent, Zion will always have injury issues. His biomechanics, weight, and power is a recipe for injury after injury. It would take probably a half of a year to a year without playing and full dedication to just focus on fixing his biomechanics and his weight before he will be taken seriously as a franchise player. Sure, he could've finished this season and NO is just shutting everyone down, but he will be a rinse and repeat injury machine. You almost would need to trade for him, have him work on his biomechanics for the off-season and most of the season, and get him ramped up with 10-15 games left in the season and have him be your secret weapon for the playoffs but then you'd lose having a full season of cohesiveness

    It boggles my mind that we are #2 in the west, sitting on a mountain of young talent and draft picks, and a well-managed cap, but we’d consider rolling the dice on a non-shooting injury prone player with a history of questionable work ethic and not taking care of his body? Lol

    They were already the 2nd worst team in the West even with Zion playing.

    CJ Mcollum is gonna be a UFA after next year why would he be willing to pretend to be injured when that would lower his projected salary?

    Zion wants to be marketable and get all that endorsement money so he is just gonna prove all his doubters right by pretending to be injured? LOL
