Two more weeks at minimum, feel like I've heard this story before. Feel for the guy at this point.

Well hopefully that should help buoy them in the meantime. They need to start winning games asap or things will get ugly quick. Very little margin for error in the WC.

Tonight's an L. My real gripe on Jonas is he offers basically zero rim protection. Which is going to be extremely vital come playoff time. So Z's going to really have to step up (as he was before the injury) in that department. Hopefully we're really get to see what this team's capable of in a month.

Can't believe they actually brought it to the wire.

Gives me optimism about what this team can/will be at full strength. For as good as Denver has been playing, they're extremely susceptible against strong PG play. They hemorrhage points to them.

3-8 since Z went down; 3-9 if you count the game he got injured. Such a buzzkill.

Not good at all - - I had a feeling there was going to be a low point in store for this squad after they reached the #1 spot in the WC, so I can’t say this wasn’t a bit expected. Need to get Zion back on the floor and keep him there. The haters are starting to become very justified when big fella can’t stay on the court with any consistency.

I don’t even care from a card collecting standpoint, but it’s disappointing and tough to stay excited when the brakes get slammed continually.

The investing side of things have made collecting such a pain. I'd love to buy cards of some of these guys but investor-bois have made the prices so high out of the gate on unproven and young stars that you get a double whammy of pain if they don't pan out.

At this point, Zion has missed more games than he's played and I hope he can turn that around but at what point is he past the point of no return? His style of game requires a lot of physicality and it's becoming clear that his body might not be able tot keep that pace up for a full season.

What? Zion is out again?

I didn't even know he came back. How many appearances the last three years?

Darren Rovell had a tweet about it this AM. Zion has missed close to 60% of his games. Someone in his replies tried to compare him to Anthony Davis and Davis has played in about 75% of his games.

Was super happy to be able to grab another big time (for me) Zion recently. Grabbed a white box one of these recently but didn’t think the prices would ever come down enough to grab the real deal and it popped up two weeks later. Game used. Super pumped.

Yah that was nice but that last look was terrible For the life of me can’t understand how Herb Jones didn’t get a foul the play before It was encouraging Team got a lot of fight in them even without their Superstars

Youth showing itself in the waning moments. Never to fear. BI back and Minn has a quirky way of letting reeling teams get their mojo back. Fully anticipating a dub tonight.

Glad you are happy but........he has "played" in 38 games on average each year he has been in the league to date. What guarantee is there that these patches are actually game worn and not bench worn?

Honest question. Cool card nonetheless.

Wish we played the Wolves 82 times a year.

Ingram shaking off massive rust early. But moving well.
