Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Cmon we all know Lebrons mysterious spa trips to Miamis fountain of youth always end up with him coming back 5 years younger. There is quite a lot of conspiracy theories with some convincing takes that’s hes def using something, love Lebron but the way he’s getting better with age considering the years and the amount of games he has played its unlikely, hair loss at a young age, super human injury recovery, the way he can gain and lose muscle at a super human rate (check summer compared to season Lebrun)

Would not surprise me if Zion is on something never seen a kid in high school that jacked.
Steroids shows up in shoulders. Zion doesn't have them
 
There’s freaks, sure. Then there’s physiques that simply aren’t possible with a normal hormonal milieu. Especially at a certain height.

Zion is on shit, just like Malone and Dwight were/are. There’s nothing wrong with it. The NBA doesn’t want to catch anyone. Hell, I don’t either. I’m just saying he started pretty young on it.

No shoulders?

He really doesn't look like he is
 
Nance and Delly are playing too well. Send all of Dellys minutes to Sexton. Play him 40 minutes. Tank will be back on track.
 
tbh the Cavs were lucky to win that game, with Oladipo missing BOTH free throws. But I did notice some intentional moves of tanking. Still before the all-star break. Cavs can't "Process" tank with this roster. But they will tank, because hardly anyone can catch and shoot at a reasonable rate.

Could Zion just be one of these athletic freaks that should have been a Defensive end in football who somehow just ended up in basketball? I wonder how he compares to Myles Garrett and Vonn Miller in terms measurables.
 
I know nobody cares but i haven’t jumped off the boat.

I switched my cable to a 10 channel package because my family doesn’t watch live TV enough to warrant a 120$ cable bill. So in my 10 channels i chose all the basketball channels(TNT ABC ESPN)and what i thought was fox Sports Ohio. But it was Fox Sports 1. So i switched it and appearently where i love doesn’t play Cavs games. So now I’m screwed.

So just know I’m still here and haven’t changed teams i just have no way to watch the games. I keep up with this board and stats and all the stories tho

more wins coming... kizzle you don't live in ohio ?
 
The tank has a track starting to loosen up a little bit.
 
There are 6 West lottery teams that are 6+ games ahead of us, and we still have the very-predictive 4th worst average diff in the league thanks to this win being so close, so there's very little risk of falling out of the bottom 10, which would be the biggest issue.

It's still early-ish, but that end-of-season West trip is going to be huge. We may be 20 point Vegas underdogs having a back-to-back disadvantage at GS.
 
I guess the statute of limitations is up on the "Great Tank" and the classified records are unsealed.

Jones, who was not a point guard, half looked at his coach and then to his teammates randomly spread across the half court.
“Thirty-four!” Jones called.
Goddamnit, Jumaine, we don’t have a play called 34,” Lucas groaned.

...

The Great Tank of 2002-03
turned out to be both the third-worst season in team history and one of the most important, as Cleveland finished 17-65, tied for the worst record in the NBA, won the draft lottery and took LeBron James No. 1 overall. It will be months and years before we learn how many games the Cavs lose this season, how high of a draft pick they get (is his name Zion Williamson?), and how good he turns out to be.

...

“Was it a plan to get LeBron? No,” Paxson said. “Was it a plan to take one more step back and see if we get a difference maker at the high end of the lottery? Yes.”

...

“I never was coaching for wins and losses,” Lucas said. “I love to coach, to coach. And so we got better. I remember getting in trouble for winning too many games as we got better, because what’s the difference of getting eighth or ninth if you can get the first pick with the most balls?”
