What's new

ZION

He has relentless motor aka Farried or Noah...so that alone will make him walking double double... Plus decent looking jumper. I am just worried how long his knees will last after landing that 280 lbs body after 40 inch vertical rebounds or dunks during 82 game season.
This.
Plus he might get even heavier since he is so young but is unlikely to get any taller

Is Zion a either like him or hate him type guy?
He's going to eat his way out of the league like Kemp did in Cleveland.
I think it's more likely injuries from his size will shorten his career more likely than being overweight. Like I've said before, I can see him being the Bo Jackson of basketball rather than an Eddie Curry 2.0

That said, even if he gets big, he's still going to be explosive and quick. The dude will always be a nimble mf.

I don't get it. Several in this thread question his future instead of embracing it.

We haven't even really seen what Zion can do. Duke didn't use Zion nearly as much as they could have; he wasn't even the first option.

There's always the chance of injury. Barkley was even bigger than Zion and he played 16 years.

And I don't get how people can question his personality. He's the consummate teammate, the consummate superstar and the consummate person. Krzyzewski raves about him as do so many other basketball legends.

I don't get it either. He's extremely likable and unlike anyone we've ever seen at his stage.
 
Zion was being discussed on this forum before ESPN even recognized him in their HS rankings!

The draftees threads that draw so much ire are the story before the story threads. Dont need to look any further than this to see why. People attack those threads because they dont find them to be topical, but they become topical over time.

Ya, five years later right before the draft, and had the draft thread started say around the start of the nba season right before the draft, the only thing that changes is the amount of pages and idiocy.

I was riding Tyler Hero on this forum since his sophomore year in high school.
 
I heard Zion hurt and will be out for about 5 weeks.
