Kevin Garnett averaged the exact same number of rebounds in his first 82 games.

Point Zion is a beast

Shut the frick up. He ran point at Duke a couple of games.

Should have been every game but K let RJ Barrett dribble the air out of the ball.

You’re also playing the “assume Woods just kept getting better too” game

Which isn’t really based in anything.

Zion turning into a unicorn that can run point while being the most dominant interior player in the league being a negative?
and then its only a matter of time before he starts settling for 3s and becomes lazy off the ball hovering outside the 3 pointlinr

There also isn’t much precedent for a guy coming into the league and out performing Shaq’s first 50 games in points scored and efficiency in the paint. But Zion’s doing it
the average game Shaq's rookie year had 210 points, this year so far its 224 points you cant compare.

You're an absolute idiot if you think that's gonna happen.

Big Z up to 25 ppg on 65.9% TS. 6th outright in PER ahead of Luka now and right behind dame and kawhi.

We've never seen this level of dominance this early from a player. Not since Shaq imo.

you could have just stopped there

other than being a complete idiot, Verlander is obsessed with dinosaur big men in the NBA. he thinks that's a winning strategy today and believes it's simply a talent issue (as in, we don't produce any good big men anymore because they don't bang in the post)

Lebrons numbers were better year 2 but he also played about 10 mpg more.

being compared to Lebron isn't exactly a criticism

Lol right. I just hope there aren't any more "ja was the better pick" folks out there.

1. He's not a wing


Are you saying this just because he's thicc, powerful, and can jump out the gym?

Because he is a wing. He just has a rare skillset on top of that which allows him to do other things well too.

He is a wing.

Luka averages more RPG and controls far more of the offense. There's really no excuse for Zion not to be grabbing 10 rebounds per game.


I listened to the BS podcast too!

Per 100 possessions, of course you can compare.
