Hawkins had 3 rebounds in 9 minutes .

Zion had 4 for the game . It is not acceptable .

problem with Zion is for all his pts, he's a turnstile on D and he doesn't rebound either.

A good coach could probably get more out of this team. But this team isn't close to a contender as it is.

Honestly one of our local media needs to ask this?? Why the frick is he taken out in s close gane with 5 minutes left? Is this Zion? Rotations? Or training staff?


It’s clearly a conditioning issue. He was gassed in the 4th which les to some really sloppy play.

If point Zion is going to be option 1 for us, Zion has to get in actual shape

Am I crazy for thinking we’re gonna be just fine?
Elaborate on what you mean by that?

This team is now in a dog fight for the play in, and I don't see why we'd be super confident and not terribly concerned that we'll avoid the play in.

I'm not sure we'll reach 50 anymore. We might max out at 48 at this rate.
Currently on pace for 45.

Zion's d was not bad this game imo

CJ got abused.

Jose and Hawkins deserved minutes

Yup and if he cant handle it- find a point guard because honestly CJ and BI on the ball is just rough against elite teams.

Schedule lines up. We need to lean into point z more and work out these kinks.

We aren't shooting 9/34 from 3 again this year either. 9/23? Sure, but we aren't missing 25 of 34 again

Anyone expecting WG to become a competent coach is wishing on a flying pig.
He simply is not good.

Lol dude there are many other reasins including issues elsewhere with Zion that we lost this game. You’re absolutely obsessed thinking him rebounding more will win us games. Trust me our problems go much deeper than that.

Pels played with better direction, just the same issues that keep them from taking the next step. Griff has to help Coach Green over the deadline.

Probably because Boston was playing 5 out on offense with Harford.

This is true schedule will be better and lets see what the trade season brings us.

No, it's not acceptable. He doesn't fight for rebounding position, and he doesn't attack the ball on rebounds.

But we also gave up 4 offensive rebounds in the first 2 minutes he sat in the 3rd and another 2 offensive rebounds in the 2 minutes he sat in the 4th.

No one is debating that he is a good player and has WOW moments . He shouldn’t be blamed for the loss …

But he does not deserve to be put on a pedestal like many on the board do .

Ppl are also blaming Ingram tonight he was and he was also good . Scored , made a couple 3s , assisted , rebounded and was okay defensively .

Because dumbass Willie forgets he has one of the best rebounding bigs in the game in JV. That should get you fired- it’s ridiculous JV got 0 minutes in fourth.

It’s impressive shooting 28% from 3. Middle schoolers can shoot that
