He has it in him. I’ve seen Z make a couple of sweet quick moves in transition this season. He needs to be more consistent.

He's going to see these walls in the playoffs regularly. They'll probably be more effective as well. Hope this makes Zion sees that he needs to add to his game to soften the wall. He's gotta develop a viable mid range game in the offseason.

Story is the win, no question. great job by the Pels taking a big game on the road against a good team.
Z was a side story, a bigger picture issue for the season. He's doing a lot of good things out there and I thought he played a smart. game overall. But his conditioning remains an issue because it diminishes the even bigger impact he could be having.
Kenny and Chuck just highlighted what should be obvious to all but many still want to quibble over: Z is not in top shape and it effects his play and keeps him from reaching his full potential as an NBA star.

No way . Go look at Z that n training camp
Last year . Best shape he’s ever been since in since being in the nBA.
He came in this year well over 300lbs

And we’re over a month into the season talking about playing into shape

Some of the folks who disagree are the ones initiating and bringing up points about BI being traded and instigating on the board this morning instead of just enjoying the win.
It's important to point out because the folks who want BI traded will be the ones blamed for being divisive when it's the literal opposite today.

Sweeping decisions were being made by a lot of posters early on this board. I along with others disagreed and said give it time. Now we're in the quarters and the team is winning at a pretty good clip and playing well, and it's due to Ingram and Zion playing well with each other.
I'll bring up the silly trade B.I. stuff because it was ridiculous to decide so early that this wasn't going to work. The sample size was too small and without too many key pieces.
What's crazy is this team is about 20 games away from taking this whole thing to another level. Wrap your head around that.

Like I said, and I'm posting because another poster is guilty of this...just remember who is enjoying last night's win and praising BI, and who is instigating arguments on the board, folks on your side.
I was told to stop bringing this up and enjoy the win, in response to someone who brought it up instead of enjoying the win, while I was just enjoying the win with my posts last night.

He also said that it took Moses Malone pulling him aside when he was with the sixers and telling him he was fat and lazy to get him to play up to the level he reached. I think this was him trying to pay it forward.
