You bitches have been shit for long enough. The Suns had their chance to draft a superstar and they haven't. It's the Cavs time again baby boy. Zion to CLE.

zion is the next shawn kemp/amare stoudemire IMO... he can be great with a great PG

was gonna say he would be henry bekkering if he was white and snuffed out before his career even started


which is still very true. a ton of white guys with extreme leaping ability would just get buried/passed over


but a black guy is made into a national hero



i also think henry would have been an amare stoudemire/shawn kemp with a great PG spoon feeding him all day

This is the moment of the catch and where the shooting motion started. Look where Zion is positioned. :roll:

His ceiling could be a bigger version of Dominique.. Blake Griffin

Although both those guys were better shooters

He's got some decent skills but his footwork and moves are limited, and zero jumper

Look how long he takes to get that jumper set and ready to shoot.. he takes ****ing forever, and that's a sign of an incredibly broken J

He'll be good though, probably an all-star.. but with no jumper, passing, or repertoire refinement, no all-time great

Haven't seen two footed hops like that since young Kemp and Lebron :bowdown:

Zion is a hard working intelligent hungry beast. With his natural athleticism and skill he'll be a 1st ballot HOF'er easily. Top 50 player guaranteed with top 5 potential.


Sorry man, guys like Zion don't come around very often.. if ever. Anyone who thinks he won't be special in the NBA probably should just stop voicing their opinions. He's the most obvious non-bust since LeBron..

I said he could be Dominique or Blake.. :confusedshrug: .. maybe Barkley even

That's pretty good

But not Rushmore level because no shooting, passing, or elite repertoire/skill.. mainly an explosive scorer.. could lead the league in rebounding if he wanted to however.. if he turns into a great defender than I take it all back.. like a more athletic Artest.. seems unlikely tho

More like Barkley with killer instinct and excellent work ethic

So a scarier more athletic version of Barkley with very good ball handling/passing abilities (for his size)

He'll be better than blake his 1st or 2nd season

Quickest face up/back to basket post player in NCAA history imo. Pick your poison, he's as fast as the smallest guards and bigger than most frontcourt starters

Some of the best handles, lateral movement and foot speed i've ever seen from a big. Or athlete in general

Zion could have been a universal athlete and dominated any sport. Were lucky as **** guys like him, Lebron and Steven Adams choose hoops over NFL/MLB

Honestly, we're comparing him to some pretty good players and I find myself having to keep increasing my estimation of him

But there's something about his game that screams Perry Jones or Quincy Miller

No, he won't be busts like them. But his skillset lacks polish like theirs.. it's hard to explain... But when there's fundamental footwork deficits, the player never learns it

Regardless, I'm pretty sure zion will get fouled a lot and have a low fg% and ft%.. again, I see Dominique or Blake being his ceiling

Quincy Miller actually had the footwork, but not the guard speed, so he isn't as effective off-the-dribble at that size like say, Durant

Zion has the guard speed.. but I question his touch and shot-making ability.. and in some cases, footwork

This block by Zion is the equivalent of a real FT line dunk (both feet get clearly behind, not half way or a foot over).

It's just bizarre how he pulled that off:biggums:

It really is funny though that people think it's nothing more then a dunker. Doesn't surprise me though, most here thought Doncic was an overated euro that would be a huge bust.

People should stop the comparisons. He's a unique specimen coming up. Just like Shaq. Just like Lebron.
No comparison needed.

He actually has good footwork and balance. His shot isn’t the best but that can be learned.

I don’t know if he’s gonna be as good as Nique or Chuck, but he’s better than you think.
I don't see 100% guard handle

That's usually resulted in tweener status

So Barkley is the best comparison.. but I'm not sold on his shot-making ability or touch anywhere on the court... I think Zion will be low efficiency, versus Barkley's high efficiency

And saying his shot can be learned is mostly a fallacy for guys with ****ed up mechanics like Zion

I see him as a Blake Griffin type.. less than Barkley or nique
