I literally see 0 venue for John Collins to end up in the lotto honestly.
Zach could, but he needs to show improvement in several areas, his awareness isnt there and his effort isnt the same on one side than on the other, same with and without touches.
his archetype doesnt really help his case either.
You have absolutely no idea what you're talking about. I know that you're your own biggest fan and I've never seen you admit that you're wrong about something, but you're dead wrong about this. One of ZC's best assets is his motor; he never quits. His awareness is uncanny for a true freshman. I've been a diehard Zag fan for 20 years and know that I'm predisposed to bias, but being objective, the only thing he has to work on is silly fouls (like most freshman) and building muscle (like most freshman).
I am not saying he doesnt have a motor, but he is a ball focused player and I think that's obvious in the way he plays on O particularly, I am big Gonzaga believer, had them 1st in my rankings preseason, and I like Zach, just think that he has to show more in terms of strength and physicality like you said, and for me bigs have to be elite to have enough leverage to go high, he is fairly similar to Patton, i like Justin's passing more, and neither does it for me just yet, so maybe with another year he could show those traits and I'd be comfortable with him in the lotto.
This is going to sound funny but you can find many examples of me saying how wrong I was about several topics, not a difficult find.
