NEWS: Zion Williamson had surgery (back playing) - Kammrath - 10-21-2019 This is big enough news for a stand alone thread.... https://twitter.com/wojespn/status/1186382650581409794 https://twitter.com/TheSteinLine/status/1186384156516847617 https://twitter.com/NickVanExit/status/1186387759910572036 RE: NEWS: Zion Williamson has surgery to repair torn right meniscus, will miss 6-8 weeks - Lucky Luciano - 10-21-2019 Poor Kid... RE: NEWS: Zion Williamson has surgery to repair torn right meniscus, will miss 6-8 weeks - omahen - 10-21-2019 I'd say something inbetween. His body will have a hard time dealing with weight/athleticism long term. Even if it can, I still have doubts in his skill beyond dunking - can it really translate to elite level star factor. RE: NEWS: Zion Williamson has surgery to repair torn right meniscus, will miss 6-8 weeks - Thukydides - 10-21-2019 Incredible player, but this could be expected. Don´t care about it much, though. All what matters to me: Mavs really should crush the Pels in those three early meetings. Could be an invaluable lead in the playoff race. This guy right here nailed it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HGRnMIRCtDU RE: NEWS: Zion Williamson has surgery to repair torn right meniscus, will miss 6-8 weeks - omahen - 10-21-2019 https://twitter.com/coopmavs/status/1186386982160785426?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1186386982160785426&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fbleacherreport.com%2Fdallas-mavericks We need to take advantage of this. Could throw one competitor pretty far behind us.

Dude freaking nailed the meniscus thing....wow. And yeah, everything about how Zion walks is a GIANT red flag. Great kid though.... RE: NEWS: Zion Williamson has surgery to repair torn right meniscus, will miss 6-8 weeks - SleepingHero - 10-21-2019 WOW! So much for not major injury concerns and just resting him for extreme precaution. The dude played 5 preseason games and tore his meniscus. Terribly bad luck. Hope Zion gets better and returns the exact same. He is so much fun to watch. RE: NEWS: Zion Williamson has surgery to repair torn right meniscus, will miss 6-8 weeks - audiosway - 10-21-2019 I'm just not feeling it on Zion. He's a ton of hype. He does have touch around the basket. But, he doesn't really have a jumper. Essentially, he's an undersized big that needs a head of steam. Why does that sound so much like Julius Randle? I see him being injured a lot because of that weight. You can't be the heaviest player in the league but just have average NBA height. He would have been much better off playing in the NFL. I actually predict that he will tear one of his ACLs within year 1 or 2 of his career. RE: NEWS: Zion Williamson has surgery to repair torn right meniscus, will miss 6-8 weeks - DrunkenDunk - 10-22-2019 Just looking at how the guy walks in this video is completely unnatural to me. RE: NEWS: Zion Williamson has surgery to repair torn right meniscus, will miss 6-8 weeks - Thukydides - 10-22-2019 Stumbled across this piece. Obviously he went for the short term fix - can´t believe the Pels´ medical staff is so dumb. http://instreetclothes.com/2019/10/21/understanding-zion-williamsons-lateral-meniscus-tear/ RE: NEWS: Zion Williamson has surgery to repair torn right meniscus, will miss 6-8 weeks - JamesConway - 10-22-2019 (10-21-2019, 04:32 PM)Thukydides Wrote: Incredible player, but this could be expected.

Could be an invaluable lead in the playoff race.I dislike this type of youtube "analysis". Seems very shady, clickbaity and pretty rudimentary/somewhat dishonest. Btw: you‘ll find comparable discussions online about Porzingis‘ knee bending in an unhealty way or Dennis‘ landing mechanics.

We all know he has 300 pounds of muscle. But this weight is still wearing out his knees. RE: NEWS: Zion Williamson has surgery to repair torn right meniscus, will miss 6-8 weeks - bartlettbear - 10-22-2019 Bust written all over this kid, due to injury and too much hype. Plus his defense he beyond bad.

He's in great shape but he's simply too heavy for his knees to take the pounding for 75 - 90 games a season.

Pop mind game backfired. Regardless, the kid is going to be a problem for a long time.

SA still won. Next few games will be critical for New Orleans. If they get even further out of the playoff picture, they might be sellers on feb 6th. |
