  1. I don’t know why Zion gets all this hate from being overweight when you got rookie Charles Barkley. No hate on Sir Charles, but it’s just so hypocritical of the NBA media today.

    Edit: criticise me as much as you want for what many would see as an β€œoutlandish” claim, but I just think it’s a bit unfair. Chuck’s and even Shaq’s weight gets ignored because they had great careers, but Zion’s doesn’t cuz he’s young. It doesn’t matter how good of a career you have; all three of them were fat at one point and Zion is the only person who got called out.

  2. Shaq ballooned after winning 3 chips. Barkley 'lost' heft to go play at Phoenix.'
    Both had balled out for several years. Zion has not shown in the few years of his career the willingness to at least show us what a fit version of him could do… no hate. As BB fans, we merit that much.
