Message: [QUOTE="newmexicuse, post: 4692119, member: 57"] You are of course correct in what you say. The idea of my post was to get his feet wet in year one, preserve his health with limited minutes, and gradually build him up for the long term. RF was also correct in his comments about Zion weighing 270. Clearly, part of the process with him would be to figure out the weight he should be playing at and to get him there and keep him there. This is a young player with mega-talent. You want to see if he can be an Embiid and not a Sam Bowie. Let's remember, because of his injury history he will be available at a discount relative to his upside, but, of course, for that discount there will be risk that the upside is never obtained.
