Hi Dylan
The team need Trey Murphy to start putting up more 3s, sometimes he look hesitant to shoot the 3 ball, out of everyone on the team I rather see him let those 3s fly lol, ok Queen, his performance slacked down but I’ll give him a pass for now because I think he’s trying to get more familiar with what the coach wants, Alvarado my dawg but towards the end a few of his 3s he took had me scratching my head, only because I felt like it was rush & a two ball would of been a better choice, on bright side dude competed his ass off, Hawkins long story short I think the coach got his confidence back up, I don’t have too much to say about Zion but I like to see more on the defensive side & for the coach, towards the end the offense started looking like Green offense, everybody just standing around while one man tried to cook, I think ball movement towards the end would of won the game but hey I’m not the coach but I will say this hold your head up, this just growing pains, no need to panic fans
They are still playing playground basketball running down the court and shooting, no setting plays this Coach wants this team to be a running team, but this team hasn`t been together long enough to be a running team, a team like the Bulls are a running team, and everybody saying Jose this and Jose that he`s the one that lost the game for us, McGowen should have been put back in he had if you look has good numbers Coach took him out. I think Coach needs to slow it down notice they do well passing the ball around.
You`ll want to get rid of Z you`ll crazy
What happened to Jake
We miss B.I.
-That game is why you need a 'Jonas Valanciunas' on your team. Probably should have played Looney or Deandre Jordan. Edey needed to be roughed up a little.
-Williamson is officially a bust. Is a 4:5 Assist to Turnover Ratio considered good these days? It's a severe mistake to allow him to orchestrate. Everybody in the gym knows what's going to happen when he's got the ball in his hands 25 ' away from the goal. At best, he's undersized finisher who can't shoot and takes time off on defense and is always injured. He simply is unreliable in every sense of the word. Wake up, New Orleans!!!
-Trey is a fourth or fifth option on a contender (at best). Giddey for Murphy straight up.
-Needed to have a scoring threat at the five to make Edey play defense. Where the hell's Karlo?
-When is the Poole Party starting?
-Fears is a great YMCA or Church League player…not so much an NBA player. Please send him to Birmingham. We don't want to do to him what we did to Jaxson Hayes. Probably two years away from being playable at the NBA level.
-The best player on this team right now is Dejounte' Murray and he's not playing.
-DEFENSE!!! DEFENSE!!! DEFENSE!!! …wins in this league. (Last night proved it again)
We need to bring in bol bol or ben simmons. Buyout rob Williams
The difference maker was our coach.He pulled our hot players out and put cold players in dumb decision
Every dayer comment
I’m done with Z tbh. Not a true #1 option. He hid when it was crunch time and allowed Jose to dominate the ball. Was even laughing after the lost. Trey was being all goofy and shit after he got fouled and it irritated me. Queen had to grab his ass off the floor. These dudes ain’t dawgs fr. They not serious and can’t lead us anywhere. Blow it up and keep Yves-Queen- Bey- Fears and Jose at least. The rest of the team I wouldn’t be against trading tbh. Let’s really talk about it.
This team need to be taught how to play defense.
Every dayer.. You're doing a great job filling in. Happy Thanksgiving!

Defensive rotations are the main issue. I hate to say it, but Zion defense since returning hasn't been anything spectacular. Over committing when it isn't needed and just getting lazy. I'm not expert on basketball defense, but when you watch the body language of him on defense, he doesn't seem to really pride himself on it.
