Gary Posted November 28, 2021 Author Share Posted November 28, 2021 Suns have now won 16 straight with the Warriors as their next opponent on Tuesday night. The only thing between the Suns is the best team in the league 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truepg Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 Chris Paul couldn't have found himself in a better position at this stage of his career. Not being carried or had joined some superfriends on a squad, but instead leading a league-best team. Really smart decisions were made. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorWhom Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 He's been on great teams before. The problem is he never seems to show up in the playoffs. or goes cold at the worst times. Regardless, hope & the Suns can finally win a ring. If not them then maybe the Cardinals? It's certainly an odd time when 2 Arizona teams are serious contenders for a championship.

I remember him more often with the bad luck of getting injured in key moments of playoffs. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DG_ThenNowForever Posted December 8, 2021 Share Posted December 8, 2021 Reports are out that Zion weights 330 pounds. He probably needs to lose like 80 pounds to have semblance of a normal NBA career, let alone an all-time one. I don't know how to fix his situation in New Orleans, but this is really bad. 3 Quote 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SFGiants58 Posted December 8, 2021 Share Posted December 8, 2021 Zion’s reaching/has reached the Oliver Miller apex of fat NBA players. Let’s hope he’s less of an idiot than Miller or learns how to perform after getting a gastric sleeve/gastric bypass/lap band operation. Of course my mind went straight to WingsofRedemption after hearing about weight.

Dynasty Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 For being a number one overall pick, he hasn't yet lived up to the hype. Is it too early to call him a bust? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Oden I guess isn’t a bust either then by your logic 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an unfortunate case of a career cut short. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dynasty Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 I consider the term "bust" with the team's pick more than the player themselves. Sure, they can be talented and injuries do happen, but for the Pelicans case, he hasn't given them the production that a number one overall pick should and that's why I'd consider it a bust pick for New Orleans. It's still a little early to declare the guy a bust as a player because he can turn things around, whether it's for another team or (doubtfully) New Orleans. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truepg Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 I see and respect your rationale, @Dynasty Other than that, the definition of the term "bust", which I also share, has been set straight so many times on so many platforms that I'm not even gonna go into that any further. It's about not meeting the expectations and hype set by others with your play. The question asked was, if Zion can already be called a bust, to which my answer is that Zion isn't anywhere in the "bust" conversation. In case of the Pelicans, sure, one could ponder now that maybe it wasn't the best decision, but there was no serious reason to think so at the time, and it was a dead-obvious consensus to make that pick. So, even by that reasoning it can't be called a misjudgement. Moreover, Morant had more question marks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
