I didn’t want to like Zion, the hype is out of control, but...he looks pretty legit to me. And remember, he’s 18. What is he going to look like once he gets in an NBA strength program? What is he going to look like in three, four, five years when experience catches up with his physical traits? And he’s not just athleticism. Yes his game is based around it, but I see a pretty good bball IQ as well. And unless he just eats his way out of the league, he’ll probably always be more athletic than everybody, even in ten years when he loses some of it. Look at LeBron. I haven’t seen enough prospects to say he should go number one, but I’d be surprised if I found anyone more deserving.
Not sure why you're taking this so personally but since you are FUCK Gonzaga. I don't like either team that much and don't GAF who they've played. Gonzaga's best player isn't as good as Dukes top 3. It's that simple. I have never been a casual basketball fan. GTFO with that bullshit. No, I've watched a lot basketball careers get made. I've seen Hachimura play in person and it was underwhelming. Since the PK80 Gonzaga has been hyping him. He's never shown an iota of defense. HE'LL HAVE TO GUARD ZION... If you don't think that's a problem, well then YOU sound like a Gonzaga fanboy.
I thought Zion was overhyped until I watched him play... the dude is unreal... a physical specimen like I’ve never seen... I mean, he is right now more ripped than any NBA player and he is only 18... he has Ben Wallace body with Charles Barkley skill set and Shaq’s Attitude... IMO, Zion is the most exciting prospect since LeBron
College hoops looks to be pretty entertaining this year. It's already got @dviss1 and @BonesJones into an argument! LOL! I am just looking forward to going to Vegas for March Madness though!
I HATE DUKE. Genuine HATE. I'll be rooting for them for the first time ever and I can't wait until they SMASH Gonzaga.
I don't like being talked to like I don't understand basketball. I've seen Hachimura play numerous times. He simply can't do what I've seen Zion do. Watch here at 5:35: Zion directs the play FROM the post to get his shot afterward... Rui ain't doing that...
Haha not to sound creepy but I love it. The skybox game was fantastic, learned he’s a lot more talkative than me (hope thats the nice way to say it!). He’s saying things that Im thinking, he’s passionate about basketball and he wears it. Its awesome. Sure I havent seen every Zaga game, but Zion, Reddish, Barrett are going to be the the best tandem on the court every game. Doesnt mean they cant be beat, but Zaga sure wont be favored, and Isnt as talented as Duke is...
In the future, don't cuss at me like that and call me names and I won't accuse you of taking it personally. Deal?
True, although you were talkative on the Max. I'm married with 3 kids as well but luckily one of them is a boy.
It's always fun to watch a big guy with ball skills. Like Hot Plate Williams. (Only with him the bulk was 100% flab.)
