Thon Maker is Kevin Durant on steroids

[Cocaine80s]

He's only 16 and is already bigger +more athletic than Durant.
Imagine Durant with the ability post up and defend

And he ****ing learned how to shoot 3s and handle the rock all of a sudden. I think his shooting form looks nicer than KD's already. This kid is a monster.

[JohnMax]

Durant is an elite shooter

Wow what makes lavine so good man tell me

[Cocaine80s]

Wow what makes lavine so good man tell me
you'll see during the season. im too tired to type out a 4 paragraph report

[BlackWhiteGreen]

He'll be a 4 if he can play on the block

[BoutPractice]

He looks a lot more like KG than Durant.

He should focus on the post, he's not as fluid as Durant was playing from the perimeter.

[deja vu]

GOAT name :bowdown:

[the mesiah]

That's going to be crazy if in the future CONSISTENTLY there are 7 foot plus 2's

[chocolatethunder]

There won't be because they're aren't that many 7' plus guys in the first place and that guy won't be fast enough to play the 2 in the NBA. So there probably won't be CONSISTENTLY a bunch of 7' plus 2s.

[Marchesk]

Is he good? Can the Heat get him?

[Milbuck]

You couldn't if you tried.

Lavine sucks ass, and I'm willing to bet you don't shower regularly.

[dubeta]

bran stans are gonna stan him and use him against Durant the same way Kobe stans stan Durant against LeBron

the cycle of stanning

[Big Cheese]

He definitely looks more like a young KG clone than KD.

Hey brocaine80s if it isn't too much trouble my man I want to hear more about this zach lavine kid 💖

[Wavves]

He wouldn't be able to tell you anything about him. All he knows about him is what he has seen from YouTube highlight videos.

[Meticode]

It'll be interesting once he becomes a senior to see how well he does transitioning into college. He's got that unique name for a star. I can already here the arena announcer....

"Thooooon Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaker!"

[LoneyROY7]

He does have a very pretty jumper, but damn, dude needs to starting taking down some protein shakes ASAP.

:roll:
best ISH insult in ages

[magnax1]

Also who the **** names their kid thon? Isn't that the name of a greek god or someone from some greek tragedy or something?

[LoneyROY7]

Who the f*ck names their kid LeBron? :lol

Yeah that name has superstar potential. I hope he can increase his speed/quickness 💖

[magnax1]

Who the f*ck names their kid LeBron? :lol
I won't deny Lebron is worse. I've always said the worst thing about his career is that in a decade there'll be tons of kids out there that don't realize how awful and weird that name is.

Hey Milf*ck whats ur obsession with people who smell? I see you use that insult daily. Must be a major insecurity :pimp:

I only use that with James Harden, because he actually does smell foul.

Your lack of personal hygiene has nothing to do with me.

[KNOW1EDGE]

There never has been and there never will be a 7' shooting guard in the NBA.

Doesn't he shoot like 39% from the field? I remember reading that somewhere.

Really? A god damn 7 footer would shoot 39% against high school competition?You probably misread something

If these stats are correct, he actually had a better freshman year than he had sophomore year. :biggums:

http://www.maxpreps.com/athlete/thon-maker/by74QPTwEeKZ5AAmVebBJg/gendersport/basketball-stats.htm

He didn't shoot the three good either season, but his overall FG% fell 10% from freshman year to sophomore year. Actually looks like he regressed overall versus getting better.

Inefficient chucker. Do not want. Iverson 2.0.

Seven footers on the perimeter :facepalm

They don't realize that the post at that height is an advantage

Sounds familiar...

Sometimes being in the post gets boring. I know it can be easy, but it gets boring down there. I like being on the perimeter shaking and baking it, getting to the cup. It gets boring down there in the post sometimes. That's why sometimes I don't go down there, but every now and then, you'll see me down there.

This has to be a joke.

Can't decide the better name of a future star

Thon Maker

Or

Seventh Woods

Not a future star, but I'll take Tacko Fall over both of them. Pronounced taco. :roll:

[BoutPractice]

Especially for a shotblocker... "Meet your Maker" would become the new "not in my house".

[Genaro]

I can't think a better name than LeBryan Nash.

This kid Maker looks more like KG than KD

[Euroleague]

He's only 16 and is already bigger +more athletic than Durant.
Imagine Durant with the ability post up and defend

And he ****ing learned how to shoot 3s and handle the rock all of a sudden. I think his shooting form looks nicer than KD's already. This kid is a monster.

He was born in February of '97. He's 17 genius.

And note that in the country he was born in, "date of birth" refers not to the day you were born on, but the day your birth is reported. Meaning, he's probably at least 19.

Biyombo was well known in Spain to be like 5-6 years older than his "date of birth" for example.
