Zion's High Risk of Injury

[Meticode]

What do you think? Do you think he's the next D-Rose where his body just can't take this athletic nature? Or do you think he'll have a relatively healthy career? I don't wish bad on him or anyone, I hope he has a long career.

Rose had some of the worst athletic technique you

Zion is in constant straining situations because he compensates for lack of skill/shooting with jumping like crazy all the time and making blistering cuts to the basket. With that weight and consistent stress, sadly hes not gonna last unless he reinvents his game like Blake.

[tpols]

yup... hes gonna bust.

His knees slant inward which is a huge red flag.

For comparisons sake, a guy like lebron is bow legged, and is perhaps the GOAT athlete to never get injured.

Zion basically got shaq'ed up and everybody is buying the hype because of his frame... but he lacks the real bone infrastructure of a shaq or lebron who can still be huge without all the muscle mass.

hes a fat guy in a small coat.

i mean blake is always hurt too... hes never made it through a single post season w/o getting hurt even on all those stacked teams where he couldve held back a bit and saved up.

What a dumb take, no surprise whatsoever. Rose had an impossible torque when changing directions or start/stop which put incredible stress on his joints. Also his landings were extremely awkward. Nothing to do with the way he runs. Stick to posting pushoff and flopping gifs of Haren.

"Here we see a few images of Derrick Rose. Notice how he is really overstriding with his legs (when your muscles and tendons are overstretching or overextending, they are particularly weak and prone to injuries) and also how he is landing on his heels."

Owning retards left and right today. :oldlol: :oldlol:

And right after I made this thread it was announced he's going to miss weeks already because of whatever is wrong with his knee. He will be getting further evaluations.

God damn youre stupid. That article backs everything Im saying


"So either you reduce your minutes/intensity, which is essentially what Kobe did, or you change the way you play so that less stress is placed on the afflicted parts of your body. This is what Derrick Rose famously did; the Chicago-born high-flyer changed from a young and explosive MVP to a much more temperate New-York Knicks point guard. Gone were the awe-inspiring dunks and the Cirque de Soleil layups, the landing of which put a huge eccentric strain on his knees which no amount of protein shakes could help with, as they were now replaced with timid layups and less drives to the lane"

Rose stops here you idiot. Doesnt 'run' on his heels.

[LoneyROY7]

[I]"Okay, so Derrick Rose doesn

He's LITERALLY about to land on his heel with his left foot.

:roll: :roll: :roll:

Yeah but he reinvented his game due to not being a high flyer anymore.

And he avoided busting his knees. I mean the guy spent months sidelined because he punched his trainer:oldlol:

For **** sake thats the rapid start/stop I was talking about. Zion does the same only he weights twice as much as Rose.

You might actually be the dumbest poster on this board. And that's a feat.

You say that Derrick doesn't run on his heels and then immediately post an image/link with a caption DIRECTLY underneath it saying:

"Overstriding and we see that he will land on his right heel."

:roll: :roll: :roll:

You can't make this shit up. You're truly a retard. :lol :lol

[PeroAntic]

Its not because of the heel its because of the stop you dummy. Are you 5 year old?

I guess you can't stop now, you're already neck deep in these retard takes. :oldlol: :oldlol: :oldlol:

:biggums:

Not his frame. :no: It's his quickness, speed, handles, verticle and ability to score WITH that frame :bowdown:

Blake is injured every singe season, never been healthy for the playoffs.

Not sure why rose came up in discussion, he's looked good athletically since NY days..



Zion is a guaranteed bust, every play jumping into defenders it's only a matter of time..

Got'm good.

[ILLsmak]

told u dudes. He might be OK tho. The thing is he doesn't NEED to be jumping and exploding like a mother****er. That's why Bron doesn't get injured. Bron is a big dude, too, or was at one time. Not THAT big, but he never really puts himself out there. You can't play like Shawn Kemp when you weigh 290.

And he arguably doesn't need all that upper body beef.

Hey I dunno anything I'm just some dude posting on a forum, but THATS HOW I FEEL. I'm not trying to hate on Zion, it's just one of those things where it's like HMM. Focus on balance, create contact, finish w/ strong lay ups. Save your savage dunks for once in awhile when your team needs momentum.

This all just seems like chronic shit, which can be worked thru, he needs to be careful that he doesn't blow his shit out tho.

Alright then, just go outside, accelerate to your top speed and then try to suddenly break on your toes. Maybe after you break your teeth on the concrete you will finally realize what an unspeakable moron you are.

Kemp
Webber
Mcdyess
Amare
Griffin

Sadly, it’s not a good record - as far as career injuries - for these super heavy, tall guys with crazy athleticism. Hopefully Zion is different but I don’t like the odds.
