One comparison I have seen is that if Zion does not play this season, then he will have played 3 games more than Greg Oden their first 3 years in the league. The weight and work ethic make this situation a lot worse. There are ortho physicians that have said from the beginning that Zion will have a short career due to his gate and the way he lands. They go in depth into why Lebron has stayed healthy (it has a lot to do with how he lands as much as taking care of his body) and how Zion is the complete opposite. They also explained how Derrick Rose would have knee injuries because he did not take the time to learn to land in the same manner as lebron. Even when he walks normally when healthy, he has a significant limp. There is something fundamentally wrong with how he walks, runs, and lands according to some physicians that break this down. I would not give up more than nets picks and some salary filler for Zion. They can have all of the Nets picks as they are not really valuable anyways.
I love Zion, but he is a wreck. He already had knee/gait issues before that he didn't seem to care about fixing. Now his foot is a mess and he is fatter than the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man.
God damn......... I am not a fan of body shaming but someone needs to pull Zion aside and let him know he is going to die at 40 at this pace.
same goes for houston rockets... empty seats all around, a theater audience on most nights, even when we were contenders...
Dang Memphis got the better deal here with Ja they got the mvp While pelicans got the dnp Would have been epic if got fat as a Knicks lotto pick
