You think Naz is better? Get real man, Zion is a beast.

he only concern I have about Zion is his size. He's 6'7" but really muscular.
So in college he plays inside a lot, and due to his size and athleticism he can dominate.
But in the NBA is he big enough to play bully ball down low? Can he play on the perimeter like a guard?
He's somewhat of a tweener, and those guys have a difficult time fitting in.
yeah he's clearly the #1 pick and clearly a transcendent prospect, BUT...he may end up a tweener
in the neo-NBA this may not be as much of a concern but i'm not sure. he's going to have to get a lot better shooting which is likely) or lose weight. there aren't that many comparisons b/c of his unique physical profile

The ony thing that would worry me is his potential to put on weight. He’s already 275-280 and busting open shoes.

Hi troll.
Such a good player?
because you will get hurt if you get in his way.
The power.
The rest of his game is indeed ordinary but no drop off compared to green of gsw who is Swiss army knife.
Comparable power player Dwight Howard but Zion is a better basketball player all around.

Right, Chuck Barkley really struggled.
Charles Barkley could shoot and play 1 on 1. And he used to constantly back guys down for like 10 seconds until he got near the basket and hit a little jump shot. That doesn’t work in today’s NBA.

This thread is so bad. He’s in peak form coming off of an injury. There hasn’t been a clear cut #1 like him since probably AD.
How much shooty hoops do you watch??

so you're saying there is 0% chance he ends up a tweener?
tweener doesn't even mean he sucks. Antawan Jamison was a tweener in a much worse era to be one and he had a great career

Zion is a more clear cut #1 than Ben Simmons was.
Posted on 3/16/19 at 10:40 am to The Funnie Five
No he’s really dominant in college
My unpopular opinion, is I don’t think he’ll be all that in the nba. People are saying he’ll be an mvp type guy. I don’t think he’ll be that or all nba for a while if ever. But just my opinion.

Preach. Am I wrong to think he’s just a more athletic Julius Randle?
This was my comp after 5 minutes of watching Zion and I haven’t changed my mind. He’s more athletic, and better at the same age.

Go back and YouTube Larry Johnson from back in the day at UNLV.
He’s a rich mans Larry Johnson and that dude dominated until injuries took away his athleticism.

Simmons can't shoot from 18 to 23 yet.
Zion can.
Simmons better passer.
Zion better rebounder.
Zion better shot blocker.
Zion better ft shooter.
Both effective inside.
Zion, by a mile.
Total package.

Your hyperbole is annoying and puts you on par with the the Stephen A's and Skip Bayless' of the world, except you don't make millions a year for being a moron.
