    It’s honestly insane how last year when he played only 20 something games everyone gushed over how good he was, and now that he’s been putting up great numbers on great efficiency with good health, he gets no attention.

      I beg to differ bro he is a blast to watch all the casuals may have turned their head towards Lamelo but Zion is a once in a lifetime talent and people and true fans know that. I never seen anyone get to the rack that easy at 20 years old and at his height. Nobody talks about his basketball iq and vision either which is definitely special.

    • @realniggashit3
      @realniggashit3 Před 3 lety +13

      The Pels are gonna blow up their salary cap for at least the next 5 years on the Lakers' failed loser "young core". They would've been better off letting AD play out his contract and lose him for nothing (one season of Zion+AD) than trade him for the "young core" the Lakers refused to extend. They already gave stat-padder Ingram the max. Now they'll either have to extend Ball this summer or trade him for penny on the dollar. If they had lost AD for nothing, they could've built around Zion, clear out cap space, and the Zion hype might have been able to attract elite veteran free agents.

    • @realniggashit3
      @realniggashit3 Před 3 lety +4

      Zion's ceiling is Larry "Grandmama" Johnson. Johnson was great in the '90s (before injuries sapped his athleticism and he reinvented himself as a role player) and formed an entertaining dual with Alonzo Mourning on the Hornets, but he was never elite and didn't take the Hornets anywhere. Mourning didn't become a winner until he went to Miami. Johnson made the 1999 NBA finals with the Knicks as a role player.

We like to throw out these comparisons from time to time I get it but it's being kinda disrespectful to how talented Zion is.

    The American media hypes up players from a young age way too much before they’ve even had chance to develop and it’s a very dangerous to play with an athletes potential like that

    Ngl, I haven’t watched your videos in a bit, but you’ve taken an entirely new level! This was really well done.
    As far as the content of the video, it’s mostly because the Pelicans are Doo Doo along with being a small market team. That’s just a recipe for getting ignored. LaMelo being damn impressive doesn’t help

    @pineapplefresh4752 Před 3 lety +12

    I literally think that the hype is only down because he's not doing the same insane dunks that he did in HS and at Duke. That's it. If you stop doing crazy dunks and highlight plays as much, HOH, ESPN, and BR won't post/care about you as much. Even if the Pelicans were still bad and he was doing crazy dunks night after night that he would still have the hype. It's sad to say but that's the way it is. Those platforms have the core guys they post about (Lebron, Steph, Lamelo) and Zion fell off the list, resulting in less casual fans seeing him. They know him as the dunk guy, and if he's not doing as many dunks, and if he's not getting posted, the hype dies. This might be the best thing for him though, takes some of the pressure off so he can keep getting better and developing his game in the shadows. I think he's already great

      Probably injuries. Looks like he's playing a lot safer basketball now. He might lose hype, but his play could be the difference between getting 1 max contracts or getting 2 max contracts during his career. I couldn't see him playing very long how he was going before
