re: Latest superstar to get Zi-owned

As long as his knees hold up Zion will always be an elite all-time type finisher because of his quickness/explosiveness off the jump, his ball handling in the lane, and his ability to extend defenses with his mid range game. He’s nearly ungaurdable in iso within 10-12ft of tne basket. Surround him with defenders who can consistently shoot 35% + from 3pt range and I believe the Pelicans can easily be a 50-55 win team at worst - even in the West.

But they need a Spoelstra type coach - smart and intense competitor.
