Wow..with his jumping abilities and he is kind of heavy, i think this just the beginning


Just proves HOW studity unhuman Lebron is.....that he has flown though the air , landed from dunks and crazy athletic plays with his size and mass ...all these years ....and barely a nick  .   

Body wise Lebron was born a human Secretariat. May never be another such perfectly made human body for 100 years
Might be wrong but James migjt have some help with PEDs and other stuff

His growing head is because of his brains!

LeBron was nowhere as thick as he is now when he first came into the league, and looked like a toothpick compared to Zion. It took years of cumulative *effort and nutrition* to get the body he has now.

Hate to see it. I worry about his injury proneness a lot. Hope for a speedy recovery to come dunk on some fools.

Having had a meniscus tear it’s definitely not pleasant. But it could have been worse. He will be back.
Any odd typos are because I suck at typing on an iPhone :D

very disappointed for him.  was hoping to see him lead NO to a better record than AD ever did as a nice thumb in the eye of AD and the Lakers

There is a good Youtube content explaining his injury.

It is kind of strange that the same guy predicted a similar outcome 4 days ago, before the media (6-8w) release.

He is very worried about Zion's future health and he brings some valid points.

LeBUM looked like a 30 year old man when he was in high school.  I watched the games.

  • Be the posts you wish to see in the world.
I mean if we're talking about PEDs and unnatural builds at young ages, not a lot of 18 year olds manage to be 280 with low body fat through protein shakes and shoulder presses either.

Just crushing. Probably a good time to see if you can find good Ja Morant ROY odds.

Or Carson Edwards, LOL.

Don’t think I haven’t looked at those odds, but the cost to fly to Vegas to place a bet makes it less worth it.

Also, Michael Porter Jr. is a trendy pick since he’s still eligible having missed all of last year.

I believe in Porter’s body lasting less than I do Zion’s...

He might not get credit for this game, but the pace that he played at, and his playcalling, some of the plays that he called were great. We obviously have to rely on him, so I’m definitely looking forward to Marcus leading this team in that role.' - Jaylen Brown, January 2021

Yes, I like Dr. Sutterer’s videos - good succinct explanations, though he’s sometimes sloppy about terminology.

They shaved off some meniscus with this surgery
- meaning, he has less of it
- meaning, there’s a greater chance of arthritis in the future.

He needs to keep his weight down.

Apparently the Pels don't even really know when the injury happened. Which IMO is a little worrying. I wouldn't be shocked if the weight and explosiveness are just wearing his joints down rapidly.
