    Knee surgery for Zion, out 6-8 weeks. Torn meniscus.

    That is one important knee. I wouldn’t rush Zion back if I were the Pels.

    Expected to play 80+ games at that size, pounding on the knees up and down the court, his style of play. Big picture, feels like the Pels could already be fucked

    A person that big and that strong at such an early age that plays above the rim. His joints and ligaments may not have caught up to his muscles.

    I wonder if had a little help getting that big?

    Zion's more of a country strong type of kid. Not super shredded like LeBron was coming out. You could tell LeBron was a football guy coming in, that he had done a little extra in terms of dietary supplements.

    Very dangerous time for Zion right now. They need to be watching him around the clock. He could easily just start eating all that food in N.O. because of the bball inactivity he's about to deal with

    Certainly hope not, but the Pels are getting a little comeuppance here

    Pels are gonna be fine. They can sit him as long as they want.
    They are restocked thanks to the AD trade.
    And they can now play with zero pressure.
    Not that they had a ton of pressure to begin with.
    But now they can even tank and N.O. wont mind.
    They have the perfect excuse to play for another top 3 lottery pick to pair with Zion.

    Their roster is pretty stacked, they don't really need to do that

    Stacked is a weird description for their roster. I mean, they added a few vets that other teams had no need for..contender Philly got tired of old man Redick's shitty defense and decided to upgrade, and contender Jazz moved on from Derek Favors who's a solid defender but not much else. Obviously, they now have a gang of young players, but nobody's said Ingram's a Pel for good. A contract decision is coming for him.

    Pels are more than likely going to have their asses handed to them in the west without Zion. I count it on it. Especially if Zo goes down with his annual injury and has to miss a lengthy stretch of games. We already know Ingram doesn't start to give a fuck until January. Holiday is going to feel lonely

    Anyway, fuck the Pels. LAKERS basketball. So tired of hearing about Beverley and Harrell and the Clips' role players..fuckin Landry Shamet. LAL better detonate on the Clips tonight.

    No George for the Clips..this game should be out of hand by the end of the 3rd quarter. Beat their ass into submission and then put Caruso in to serve the Clips up a few more shots in garbage time for meme's sake

    KlayThompson is reportedly unlikely to play this season.






    Yup. Throw away year for GSW. And they may never make it back, very good chance their run is over. Another however many games on Draymond's legs. He's going on vaca

    Imagine if they missed the playoffs. Then they would get a lottery pick. I want them to suck but not too much.

    Not only is LeBron's jumpshot broken tonight, but the offense looks better without him on the floor. Guy is out here deferring to Danny Green..and LeBron just let Beverley grab the rebound over him on the free throw

    Lebron played like total dogshit. Danny Green kept us in the game. Lebron just threw everything away with stupid turnovers and missing easy shots.

    He definitely looked washed. Forcing passes and turning it over again and again, passing up jumpshots 1 VS 1, etc. He just looked like shit, failed to keep Beverley from getting the rebound on the free throw Smh

    Know there's usually an adjustment period when he plays with another star, but it's still troubling being that he's older now

    That loss is all on LeBron.

    Also, Caldwell-Pope should be dropped in the Pacific Ocean.

    Bron look like he lost a step out there:(

    Anyway, gotta find a point to play in the 4th. The bron dribble and either throw to Davis, dribble dribble force a shot, or run hard into the lane for an awkward kick out isnt gonna cut it for us down the stretch.

    Ugly game. Ummmm....why are we playing KCP at all? Does he have some incriminating photos of Vogel?
