Now the joooooy of my woooorld is in ZIIIIION — thread for Zion Williamson

lol manu skidmark

I never liked Nikes as actual athletic or workout shoes, quality always seemed a little weak to me, not that I ever played at the intensity to cause a blowout like that.

its like im always saying "the famous dunk is the best shot"

its what we math nerds in the basketball world call "a good high percentage shot"

Yeah that's the argument I always pull out against "old school fundamentals" dorks. Dunking is like the most fundamental thing you can do. But it seems like the old school fundamentals dork is a dying breed.

dunks not being worth 3 points is the real crime.

dunk judges on the sideline deciding how many pts the dunks are worth

teams start drawing up out of timeout 360 alleyoops to get the 5 pter and win the game

haha im down. at least try it out in the all star game... midrange jumpers by ya boy lamarcus are negative 2 if he misses, 0 for a make.

im fighting you

lol

anyway rumor is LA and dame have patched things up and have discussed a reunion in portland so who knows

knicks are gonna get this guy for real huh

they only have a 15% chance iirc

their ping pong balls are already in the fridge

i am really worried about zion that he is going to have his career cut short by hitting his head on the roof of a stadium too hard

he might jump into outer space and suffocate

Zion is playing tonight!

11/11 from the field so far

lol, boeheim's kid is hoisting

zion should punch reddish and jones every time they shoot

otm

he’s 12-12 from the field with 5 steals (and should have been credited with another a minute ago)

I’m at a party rn with someone who is arguing very strenuously that barrett is a better prospect than zion and my head is about to explode

lol some people

feel like its underrated how rare it is for a freshman to dominate, like the last couple before zion were prob brow and kd, and zion has been much better than either of them

i barely even follow these guys and still lol

theres always one

did our big special boy do good tonight

well shit

29 points on 13-for-13 shooting with 14 rebounds, five steals and a block

P good imo

the only reason I can see why someone would favor Barrett as a pro is that there are already a ton of great players in the league who look and play like Barrett, whereas Zion doesn't have nearly as many (or maybe any) ideal comps. but then you remember guys like Ben Simmons and Giannis who are doing just fine as freak outliers.

I have this nagging feeling that I don't want the Knicks to get him because Dolan doesn't deserve anything good and they'll probably just fuck it up somehow anyway.

he could be cool on the Bulls. Zion + LeVine + Lauri + Porter is pretty intriguing.

oh and i forgot Wendell Carter! that's a solid young five.

zion to bulls would be legit

nicholson-yes-nod.gif

yeah i support that

watching zion

the classic rivalry

i too am indulging in some zion

cant take my eyes off zion

who is zion

our big beautiful son

Zion is the whole March madness he’s all we need

there is no ncaa only zion

hes made like 3 or four insane plays since i started posting itt

wonder what kinda numbers hed be putting up in the nba this season

It’s crazy that Barrett and Reddish are super elite prospects that people are penciling in as future nba all stars and Zion renders them completely anonymous
