I definitely chuckled. Great execution; well done.

this is wild.

how did DSj do anything?

KP taking the QO would be revolutionary but DSj isnt planning that too, is he?
did I miss something?

he'd be an idiot to go that route

Guys brave enough to draw a charge are gonna get destroyed. A new kind of poster all it’s own. Zionized!

Think he’s alluding to him being away from the Mavericks after having issues and then wanting a trade. Think that was more on Dallas though. They kept him away for a bit.

And no, nothing on DSJr and a QO. He’s only in his 2nd year. Lol. He got 2 more seasons under contract before he’s a RFA.

Looks like all muscle. I wonder what his body fat % is.

He’s a true freak.
I really can’t watch him and tease myself.

I heard some where if he was in NBA right now, he would be 2nd highest weight after Bogbhan who mind you is 7'3 plus. I rather go Barret or Ja

AD would be perfect. But at the same time maybe that guy is Zion or another guy. Like the pick, a Mavs pick and Knox for Paul George.

Kyrie
Frank
PG
Durant
Mitch

Not too worried about spending those assets for something special if KI and KD want in.

fixed your post

the guy has run away in the NCAA and in the NBA

Maybe he'll turn out to be an all time great as a Knick. Let's hope he does. But let's not lie to ourselves before his time here starts.

Saying you’d take someone over this dude is like saying “Lebron has no jump shot, I’ll take Melo instead” if you had the first overall pick. Don’t get cute. Have your medical people have their medical people and their best medical people powwow and put he and his medicals through an extensive evaluation.
But from the eye test, geez.

Dude is generational talent.
And it’s not like he’s just a highlight film either.
Ja looks great. Culver is smooth as hell. Barrett is an attacker....NONE should be picked before Zion.

He’s this generation’s Shaq. Obviously completely different talents but equal potential for dominance.
Who’s gonna stay in front of this dude?
What happens when he becomes a competent shooter?
NBA spacing? The rules??

Yeah. I can’t watch him anymore.

Wilt was 7'1" and 310 playing weight. (His own vids.)

Shaq was 6'11" or 7" and 300, when fit?

Barkeley was allegedly 6'4" and 280 as a red-shirt at Auburn. But imo he lost weight before he got to the league. (Has it all and more now, ldo.)

Zion ... ?

Irving = Curry
Knox = Klay
KD = KD
Frank = Iggy (not sure if we have money for Tobias)
Smith = Livingston
Trier = Barbosa
Zion = Draymond
Robinson = Bogut/McGee/Bell
Vonleh = West
Dotson = Young
Hezonja = Barnes

And we still have enough money to sign quality veterans to add depth, talent and leadership

We only miss the type of coach Kerr is

stuporman · Post #577 » by **stuporman** » Tue Feb 5, 2019 12:45 am

He could be like Shaq or Barkley or he could be like Eddy Curry or Jerome James....my money is on the former. The kid is just way too skilled, athletic and he carries the weight like it belongs there. He looks like the freak of nature type of guy not the relies on his size but doesn't have anything more than that.

vallen · Post #578 » by **vallen** » Tue Feb 5, 2019 12:52 am

If you were around for it, you just cant help but remember Eddy Curry.

In a bad way?

Because me too. I think he's only going to get heavier as he ages.
