Lol@anybody going #1 over Zion. Dude is a man amongst boys out there and there will be no difference in the NBA as he outweighs everyone there by 40-50lbs hahah. By the time he's 24-25 he will be 300+lbs & probably able to jump over the backboard hahaha.
dook beats Army by 22, dook beats 'tucky by 34
is Army that much better than 'tucky, or did coach k show some respect for his alma mater by calling off the dogs on Veteran's Day?

obv the comp has been lol the last cpl games, but i really can't see anyone challenging him for #1. especially not lolbarrett who's at 40usg atm (51ts)
Lol@RJ Barrett being the #1 pick, Barrett most likely struggles to score,defend or do anything in his rookie year in the NBA while nobody can stop Zion as he's bigger, stronger and more athletic at age 18 than everybody in the nba at his position haha. I think i take Zion at age 18 over the brow at age 18 as well.

Fun fact:
Zion has more dunks than missed shots this season.
cam reddish benefiting from some diverted attention obviously, but he's shooting 8 3s at game in 22mins and looks like a good shooter. preseason talk was that he's streaky, and his form looks better now than the highchool footage
hs footage also shows him with pretty good handle, eurosteps, athleticism, passing - none of which he'll get to show off much at duke if barrett keeps up the chuckmode all year. but if he's actually a really good spot up shooter he looks like a really good prospect, high floor high ceiling type of dude
bol bol looking the goods so far - huge block rates and nice offensive touch. some of the floaty stuff he puts up doesn't seem sustainable in the nba but who knows with his length. fair to say he's probably a bit soft but even if he can really only shoot and finish he should still be v valuable, and it looks like he can do both those things fairly well
one observation on his shot though, his release is lower than it could be. doesn't look as unblockable as porzingis for example despite similar height
was thinking - who has the most unblockable shot in the nba? it's not porzingis imo because while he is huge, his release isn't quite as high as it could be
lamarcus aldridge comes to mind, and yao was up there in all time terms. kaj probs the correct answer but the skyhook feels like cheating, i am more thinking reasonably conventional jumpshot form
Staps should be unblockable, except refs never calls foul when he's hit on the elbow. That's the only defense he gets, getting hit in the elbow every shot

agreed, but we'll have to ignore the final score. there's no way Oregon should have lost to Texas Southern as a 24 point fav at home, especially having an 11 point lead in the 2nd half.
Looks like he can pass super well too. I keep getting more and more impressed by him. Would be shocked if he doesn't go top 3, mildly surprised if not top 2.
His head is above the rim.
The ball is higher than the box on the backboard.
He is our basketball Jesus.
The second coming.
Amen .
