I don't really see the need for college basketball players to shut it down, especially if they're at the top of the food chain. NBA teams are still going to take a flier on him and with NBA contracts being guaranteed he's at worst a lottery pick even with an injury. As for like say Football, that could actually just ruin your entire career with an injury. Since contracts aren't guaranteed, teams can cut you at any point if they feel you're not worth the time.

BUT, there might actually be some merit to what Pippen said based on Zion shutting it down to solely train for the NBA. At that point it might make sense for him to just hire an agent, withdraw from school, and then hire a team of basketball trainers to help him with any current holes in his game. That actually might be better for his career.

I agree.

But what about his education..........

Real messy situation

18-20th is still pretty bad

I mean, I'm looking at that Shit and I'm thinking....

Really?

You bragging that he vaulted you to 12th from last?

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

They were 18th-20th in 3 shooting when he got hurt.....been 2nd worst in 3 shooting since his injury. James being there results in better open looks at the basket.

Herpes is an improvement over full blown aids.

Both are still undesirable outcomes.

I don't see it as bragging so much as highlighting facts. leBron makes shooters around him better, I don't think that's controversial

Yeah....

That's like saying water is wet.

We already know that.

Pick any roster in the NBA and add LeBron, all their numbers will be up as well.

Making them a taller midget might be trending in the right direction.

But, it's still not GOOD.

If I'm baking 30 cookies and only 12 of them are edible, I'm still a Shit baker even if all 30 were burnt the time before.

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

Yeah....

Wouldn't have been controversial had anyone other than you said it.

Your passive aggressive bullshit has me in the mood to fuck with you at every turn.

Might wanna buckle up.

You already know you don't want it with me.

Please don't make me publicly emasculate you AGAIN.

Pippen thinks Zion needs to shut it down for the season because he can get hurt. Pippen needs to STFU....

Yeah. I am a UVA fan. I want Zion on the floor when we beat them!

 

[DJ Fieri]

They beat down VT the other day....
