I don't consider San Antonio a small market team bro. They've had Iceman George Gervin, Tim Duncan, David Robinson, Kawhi Leonard, and on and on. Small market teams usually don't get players like that. And yes I understand some of these players were drafted like Wemby, but everyone was super excited for the Spurs to get him because they know SA has a history of developing big guys. If it were a small market team we'd all want him traded to another team where he could maximize his potential. Edit - Okay so technically they are a small market team geographically, but I personally don't consider them small market.

@antoniomoya2460 6 месяцев назад

I agree with Shannon on the second point. When you're playing against your buddy, you typically want bragging rights. You want to be able to say you genuinely outplayed your bro. When it's a grudge rivalry, games can get exciting, but not clean. Look at golden state against Memphis. That rivalry was crazy for all the hits and smack-talking going on. But golden state vs Sacramento now, is always must-see tv, because both teams are simply determined to outplay each other. Now when it's both, like the heat and Celtics, or warriors against cavs last decade, magic happens fr

If it's true that Zion didn't wanna be in New Orleans from day one and it has impacted his mindset, then it's very disappointing. I think of LeBron and how he turned the Cavs around, made them relevant and took them to the Finals his first go round with them. I think of MJ getting drafted to Chicago on a team that was on the verge of being sold and relocated the season prior in 1983-84 due to financial troubles and dwindling attendance. MJ stayed and the rest is history. Zion has the opportunity to do this in New Orleans and make that franchise his own and synonymous with himself, a team that AD departed and that's never won anything.

From a local perspective, I think we are seeing the absolute worst of Willy. This is not Zion’s offense. This is not the offense that had him looking like short shaq even last year. The lineups don’t make sense, and they are making him play point, and dribble through a zone instead of letting him catch it below the free throw line. A certain pels fan favorite is also a huge issue, and him coming back ground the pels offense to a halt last season. Dyson needs to start with Zion.

@@lawrencebello6177 please notice that how you qualified it as a guard. Zion is playing more bigs…he’s undersized this not making him much of a shot blocker FYI lonzo hasn’t been heathy in 2 years and again covered guards who are much smaller than bigs

@OweNoManAnything 6 месяцев назад

I understand that Zion’s health/longevity is always in question, BUT you don’t ask a player of his caliber to “Buy in” as long as he is on the court you “Buy in around him”.

You can’t do that when he’s missed 200+ games.

@@robertmeadows2450 again along as he is on the court you make the team buy in around him. When they were taking the league by storm in the early part of last season the offense ran through Zion!
