OT: The Next Shawn Kemp? Zion Williamson

[Big Mac Biyombo]

Wow he's detonate lyrics skilled. He reminds me of Zach Randolph! Must be the body type. He doesn't look very long but he's deceptive like Zach.

There is nothing about his game that resembles Randolph. That's about as bad a comparison as I could possibly think of. If Zach Randolph could jump like that, he would have been the best player in the league.

Shawn Kemp, Charles Barkley, Lebron.

Dude's the most athetic freak since Lebron in high school.

Good call on the Barkley comparison. He'll be at least 2 to 3 inches taller, but he has that thick build combined with explosiveness Barkley had in his Philly days. More explosive than Charles though, but likely not as tough and as skilled because few are.
I've only started watching this kid in the last month, but he's very impressive.

Pretty impressive. Interesting that as a lefty he seems to favour his right when he goes in for dunks. Still capable with both hands around the rim, but his power dunks are with his right. Will be interesting to see how he fares in college against better competition.

That is incredible for 16 years old, even just in terms of muscle development he is already built like most guys in their mid to late 20s!

[hankscorpioLA]

I dunno....What is his cocaine consumption like?

[B00Yah]

I'm willing to bet $100 that he won't even go top 5 in his draft class.

You're on. Pm me and we can set that up with escrow.com

Thought it was old Anthony Bennett video

Sonics version Shawn Kemp was one of my fave players.

When Antonio McDyess came into the league I was so excited. Too bad for his knee issues.

[GreatWhiteStiff]

Zion Williamson belongs in the HOF more than tmac IYAM.

[Bick]

The new Seventh Woods

Wasn't he supposed to be a big prospect?

He was, he plays for UNC and is putting up 1.6/1.3/1.4 in 8 minutes shooting 28% and 18% from 3. He's a homeless mans Archie Goodwin

Kemp didn't have handles like that.
That's a Lebron clone. High praise, but good lord. Fluid, huge, hops, handles, defensive tenacity.
A franchise stalwart.

[StopitLeo]

Damn. Took over a minute for me to realize he was left handed.

[40 Guzzle]

I've never seen anyone who cocks the ball that far back for those dunks though, not even LeBron.

with his off hand too

Is being the next Shawn Kemp a good thing?

Yes. Kemp was a freak of nature like Lebron and Shaq. Explosive. Big, Some Range. Monster dunker. Just a freak. The thing that kept him out of the HOF was he was a freak off the court too.

How can he be a LeBron clone when he's missing the main attribute: passing.

Looks more like Larry Johnson to me.

What do you know about his passing skill? I have been trying to figure this out. He has a few nice clips but it's too hard to figure out without some non highlight stuff. BTW he is way more athletic than Johnson. His timing is spectacular and his block highlights look better to me than anyone who's ever played the game. That block at 6:22 in the first vid is without comparison.

How many baby mama's he got?
