Question about the "rift" between Zion and the Team
0

I'm legitimately confused about Zion's problems with the team. Every podcaster and writer makes it seem like both sides are to blame for a "rift."
The first misstep everyone points to on the Pelicans side is the ultra-conservative way we handled the return after the meniscus injury. Zion hated the short bursts, etc. Is that it? Because I don't see how trusting Aaron Nelson's advice as a misstep. What other faults can be attributed to the team and/or Griffin? That he played piano to Zion? That he's just a phony, generally speaking? Thanks.
