i still wonder about zion size wise for the NBA but his athleticism and playmaking skill are reminiscent of ben simmons, but he's far more polished of a player
― J0rdan S., Wednesday, November 7, 2018 11:54 AM (one week ago)
yeah simmons is his best modern comp but style wise and even moreso attitude wise he's got a lot of barkley in him. insane

simmons cant get to the rim zion is a fn genius at it
― lag∞n, Thursday, 15 November 2018 03:52 (five years ago) link
his touch around the basket creativity etc is mega elite

I mean simmons could get to the rack in college

simmons was being compared to lebron man he had the creativity stuff going too

lol this whole thread so far and not a mention yet of Duke's best player, R.J. Barrett
granted, Zion is much better than i realized. it's insane that if he were in the NBA today, he'd be the second heaviest-listed player (behind Boban) at 6'7".
(my two posts at top of thread didn't age well.)

RJ really shit the bed on the last three Duke possessions last night.
― Jeff, Thursday, 22 November 2018 18:16 (five years ago) link
will be cool if the top three players in the draft are all from duke, cool as in a scifi futuristic dystopia
― lag∞n, Thursday, 22 November 2018 20:56 (five years ago) link
It will definitely be cool if they squander the talent in March

true ^
also true, re: RJ shitting the bed ^^^
idk, i could be wrong, maybe Zion's better. but RJ looks smoothly unstoppable most of the time. (except not at the end of the Gonzaga game.)
― alpine static, Friday, 23 November 2018 19:56 (five years ago) link
small sample size, but 41% shooting on 21 shots a game on an insanely stacked team is not great. idk, i haven't watched enough to have a real opinion on his game.

i grew up in the heart of acc country and have a deep seeded hatred for both unc and duke but coby white is so much more fun than zion or any other freshman i've seen this year. i'm glad this freshman class is so stack so that he can just do his thing without receiving the tray young treatment from espn

People hate that we talk about Zion Williamson so much & I don’t get it. His PER is 43.1. Let me say that again. It’s 43.1. 👀. The avg PER is 15. Zion’s PER is the highest in recorded history of college basketball. #Facts @GetUpESPN— Jay Williams (@RealJayWilliams) January 10, 2019
