    To count on to put the team on his back and win us a game: Dame

    To be my bodyguard at least until his knees give out: Zion

    I'd only pick Zion for one reason:

    10,000% Dame.

    Zion is a beast on the court. Forget his off court issues. My first impression of him has not changed.

    Before he was drafted, I watched a lot of Zion game film. Combining his size and style of play, it was not a matter of if, but when he would get injured.

    Nothing in his NBA career has changed my mind. If anything, he has increased his odds for more injuries.

    At the draft, if I was NO, I would have auctioned off the #1 pick, when Zions value was at its highest.

    What makes you so sure Zion could beat Dame?

    Rich says it's sports talk radio a bunch of times before he poses the dilemma because this question is nothing but sports talk radio shit.

    Healthy and motivated, Zion would be in a class by himself.

    But here on earth, he's not either of those yet (or hasn't proven he can maintain it).

    ALL things considered, Dame. But if Zion had a different weight class....
