Why would you want a football build for no contact basketball? It’s such an inefficient body type for that sport. You risk getting hurt because of the extra disadvantages and unnecessary weight.
Simply Judging off the way he walks, he was going to be injury prone. Unless he loses a great deal of weight, this is just going to be the reality of the situation. Joel Embiid is almost in the same situation, that weight going up and down the hardwood just isn’t going to happen, at least not long term
He can’t put down his lunch, can’t put down his lunch. Missin workouts with my team, because I’m fat as fuck. I can’t put down my lunch, I can’t put down my lunch 😂
Damn how much he pay u to hype him up!? Nothing but high school & college highlights like he’s still a Prospect… 😂 I also like that people act like Blake Griffin never existed?
I want this kid to succeed so badly just for the love of the game. He’s a special talent, but he can’t expect anymore chances. He needs a strict legend like Pat Riley to get his mentality changed. He’s still young enough to turn it around, but he’s going to have to completely change his way of life. Although, I’m afraid he may have burned too many bridges already. I keep cheering for him but it’s either do or die at this point.
You know the NBA is in trouble when non-players like Zion W. and Ben S. get as much attention (if not more) than your most prolific players. Someone answer me this question. Who were the Zions and Bens during the 80's and 90's? No one! There were players who were injury prone, but none of them were taken seriously enough to merit commenting on. Now, athletes get attention for not doing their jobs. It's pathetic.
"Unstoppable spin moves and gravity defying leaps" lol that sounded like someone who doesn't know anything about basketball was just given a script to read.
My thing is this: you gave this man so many clauses that could terminate his contract. He's met every single last one of them from what I understand. And you still employ him? At this point the pelicans are just as culpable as Zion himself
I think Zion hurts more than other players who got lazy because we know the potential and skill is there and we want to see it but it’s just not happening. And when he plays and that’s not very often he is still decent so it’s just frustrating to see someone who just doesn’t seem to understand his position he is in and no one in the pelicans organization seem to want to call him out on any of his shortcomings
Pelicans need to trade him or let him walk. The amount of love he’s received and money he’s made and he can’t just listen to the teams nutritionists and drop a little weight? I’d be furious if I was from New Orleans because he has talent, just no discipline.
I agree, but the problem is he’s going to have a hard time finding a team that will take him for more than 1-2 season contract. He’s going to expect the big 5 year deal and no one will gamble that on him again.
Hes a bust. Why would any of what weve seen so far suddenly change? Esp as he ages and loses the advantages he had. Hes done. Anyone wgo trades for him are stupid
So its ok for an elite athlete to be fat? Many people are lining up to join the NBA and if Z man cannot keep this up than the nba is not for him. He can go play in China league or smth
I've been saying for years he needs to be watching tape of Zach Randolph and his 4 inch vertical. The human body is not designed to jump as high as he does at his weight. It's simple physics.
Did you really compare a guy who can't stay consistently healthy since coming in the league to another guy who is a hall of fame with merits to back up his game? Yes it sucks to see kawhi as he is but Zion isn't even close to being a comparison. Zion is a number 1 draft pick who is becoming a bust. Not a champion or even an accomplished basketball player that is aging and cares more about his health after basketball than playing now.
6 years in and we're still having this discussion? 😒
Tree style
15:42 Joel Embiid famously missed 2 seasons then straightened up and became an MVP.......
And then he'd admit he'd never play back-ti-backs again
"I saw a belly."
haha!
Him being in the league since 2019 is crazy
It is crazy to believe it’s been over 4 years. Literally feels like his second season.
I know, it makes me feel old 😔
Why would you want a football build for no contact basketball? It’s such an inefficient body type for that sport. You risk getting hurt because of the extra disadvantages and unnecessary weight.
yeah look at lepussy when she "drive" to the basket... terrible
Wdym no contact? Basketball is a contact sport.
The dude's satisfied with the money he's earning. He doesn't care about basketball.

@@NoahLinden your welcome
He wouldn’t even get half the money he’s made. They have clause in their contracts about the amount of games that need to be played
Can't really say earning
Zion Williams face look like it's 100 lb all by itself😂😂😂😂😂
he ate the whole pelican at once
Simply Judging off the way he walks, he was going to be injury prone.

Joel Embiid is almost in the same situation, that weight going up and down the hardwood just isn’t going to happen, at least not long term
Lebron is 6’9 250-260 and hasn’t had any lower body injuries in his entire career considering his explosive dunks and leaping ability
Zion at his lightest was 30 lbs heavier than LeBron while being 2 inches shorter. Also LBJ has never played a full season
Comparing him to Embiid career start is like asking 'can he evolve from a disappointing bum into a world class bum?'
Poor NOLA had a hurricane now they gonna have a famine because Parade Float Zion gonna eat all the food
He can’t put down his lunch, can’t put down his lunch. Missin workouts with my team, because I’m fat as fuck. I can’t put down my lunch, I can’t put down my lunch 😂
Zion Blunts
The thumbnail is hilarious 😭😂
Damn how much he pay u to hype him up!? Nothing but high school & college highlights like he’s still a Prospect… 😂 I also like that people act like Blake Griffin never existed?
In a few years, Zion will be in videos with the players who lost all their money and in what if's too
Yeah. We've seen guys like him. Not developing any other aspect of his game. No discipline. Always injured. Zero expectations.
_The Nutty Pelican_
These NBA players are too overpaid.

Well there was Penny, Doherty, Sampson etc.
The Z man likes carbs 😊
"Unstoppable spin moves and gravity defying leaps" lol that sounded like someone who doesn't know anything about basketball was just given a script to read.
So he’s basically Derrick Rose 2.0 😂
I will never forget those New York "We want Zion" Knicks days..
My thing is this: you gave this man so many clauses that could terminate his contract. He's met every single last one of them from what I understand. And you still employ him? At this point the pelicans are just as culpable as Zion himself
That beard is working for him though.

He's 6'7 and cant shoot, how was he going to change how "big men" play? He's a short wing, not a big man. 🤷
nba today is to funny but yeah the poor children must play icehockey these days
I'll admit that thumbnail looks funny but also click baiting. Yes he did gain a little weight over the years but not that much.
This is long video for so little info.
Them large guaranteed contracts ruined the nba and that’s why players get away with that
Oink Oink 🤣🤣🤣
Hes a bust. Why would any of what weve seen so far suddenly change? Esp as he ages and loses the advantages he had. Hes done. Anyone wgo trades for him are stupid
He may be fat, but let's stop trying to make him look he weighs 400 pounds!!
So its ok for an elite athlete to be fat? Many people are lining up to join the NBA and if Z man cannot keep this up than the nba is not for him. He can go play in China league or smth
Simply just make a diet he will enjoy lol all that money and cant find a smart chef is crazy😂
He needs help from emotional eating. I wish he could see my plan. That's the problem.
First
I've been saying for years he needs to be watching tape of Zach Randolph and his 4 inch vertical.
The human body is not designed to jump as high as he does at his weight. It's simple physics.
4 inch? 😂
His first mistake going for a black woman instead of all the other dudes who get bunnies
How is that any different from Kawhi. Some overpaid worthless shit yet he works half of the time
Did you really compare a guy who can't stay consistently healthy since coming in the league to another guy who is a hall of fame with merits to back up his game? Yes it sucks to see kawhi as he is but Zion isn't even close to being a comparison. Zion is a number 1 draft pick who is becoming a bust.

@@IIAiPlayerIItruly. Kawhi may be mailing it in now but he was a real force back in the day.
