Zion will be this guy sooner than you think from what he's shown me, and personally, I want my super star to be the alpha, not some other random roster spot that is filled by someone partly because they're an alpha.

It's not like AD who is beta to the core, Zion is going to have a LeBron-like chokehold on whatever franchise he's playing for if this keeps up.

What I don't understand is how the head coach doesn't go up to him and tell him straight up that your the guy, be the guy. Then immediately after go up to BI and say, hey man, you aint the guy.

Yep, Zion is going to be the unquestioned leader in the next couple seasons. Ingram 1B. We don't have to have a Westbrook. We could maybe do with one or two pitbull personalities, to keep an edge and intensity, but that can just as easily be a Bowen type as opposed to a Westbrook.

People think you need some CP3 or Westbrook but plenty of teams have won a lot of games with a leader more like Duncan, Lowry, Conley, Curry, or Dirk.

And frankly, those are the types of personalities and the cultures they foster that have a better chance of sticking around in smaller markets.

Bi will always be a number 2.

I think zion will eventually be that guy the more comfortable he gets.

We do need an alpha point guard. I've been saying this. You need someone to tell ingram and zion what to do.

Cp3 would've been perfect.
