re: Pels v Grizzlies: Zion vs Ja, and yes Zion is better than Ja

Maybe it's because they were hiding him since he's a rookie, but Kira was playing like a free safety roving the passing lanes. Often his assignment was guarding the corner 3 shooter and because he's fast enough to recover, he was usually way off his man waiting to deflect a pass or rotate to help. We'll have to see how that holds up against a better team that moves more. Will he look like ball watching Zion, or will his super speed let him get away with it?

If it's something he can get away with, roving Kira + engaged BI with his long arms will lead to a lot of disruption of the passing lanes.
