Zion Williamson NBA Predictions

[spro23]

Ok. Fat guys is what i meant. Zion is thicc

[milesbk23]

His passing and vision and general unslefishness really stand out to me. Also, he's scoring effortlessly within the system, but still creating opportunities where they might not exist to a player with lesser athleticism

[seaborneq]

Barkley was MVP of the league. Draymond an all time great. Many other really good players with 20% the athleticsm of Zion

You get a chance to test your Draymond Green is an all time Great this season. He is the best "active" player on this years Warriors team. Let's see where the Warriors end up with their all time Great forward as a leader and best player.

Lmao. In the lottery where they end up. Dreymond is a all time annoyance not all time great. That hilarious. Dude not even close to the all-time non scoring type, Dennis Rodman.

is this fat ass even going to play this year?

Did you see Jalen Rose and J Will talk about him ? I think he shouldn't play this year... .He is never going to be healthy in his career for a long time.

[seaborneq]

All Time Great Draymond Green is tearing it up for the Warriors right now. Padding his Hall of Fame credentials by being the "best" player on the worst team in the NBA this year.

[Chi_archie]

getting some glimpses of his rehab progress in pre games

i'm not Doc or rehab exercise physiologist

but I think he's going to have some Derrick Rose type mental blocks and hurdles to over come in truly trusting ALL that weight and force on his weakened knee.

[Hman]

Before the season I thought New Orleans had a good enough squad to be a playoff team with a healthy Zion.

But it doesn't look like even he can turn them around enough this year.

[shadymcgrady]

Give the kid a few years to wow us before we lament the body weight. Yeah it's ideal to be lighter in bball but he's still in his youth, there are jaw dropping days ahead before the inevitable

[asiagambler]

May be hard to believe but Green is one of the smartest players in the NBA. Very high basketball IQ

True. I hate the guy, but he does almost everything right.

I don't disagree that he is intelligent and has a high basketball IQ, but is he an all time great based on his production now that he is the main guy on a team is the question? Someone in this thread thinks Draymond Green is an all time great small forward, yet he is the best player on one of the worse teams in the NBA in his prime.

[rm18]

He always played PF. Draymond is a guy who can help you contend for a title if you want a guy to carry a bad team yes you are better with Julius Randle.

Do you think Draymond Green is an all time great POWER Forward, since the position he plays matters?

[rm18]

He is up there I will take a guy who is good at everything like Draymond, Rasheed, Brogdon, Jrue over so called superstars who cant shoot, pass or play defense. Warriors got so much better when he took David Lees job even though he was a 20 and 10 guy

All time greats don't lead teams into the draft lottery when they are in their primes. Or still be the 4th or 5th best scorer on a team in which they are the supposedly best active player. Lots of love for Draymond in this thread even though the production is abysmal.

Not really fair to judge him on this season since Warriors are tanking and they look for any excuse to rest him. When he plays, he makes everyone around him better, there just isn't a lot of talent around him

As for whether he's an all time great, I don't really know, honestly I don't think about things like that all too much. The game has changed a lot just in the last 5 years. He's never really been a scorer and "all time greats" are almost all biased towards prolific scorers

I guess you can compare him to someone like Dennis Rodman. Do you consider Rodman an all time great? He was probably best rebounder of his time and excellent defender too but not much of a passer. Green isn't as good at rebounding but he's just as versatile as a defender and much better passer. Also is a leader, can run the point on offense and dictates the floor on defense. He's just a really good and smart basketball player, probably will be a good coach some day

[JIBBBY]

The next coming of Grandmama aka (Larry Johnson) so they say..

[jjgold]

Let’s see how it looks it’s getting closer finally

[mjsuax13]

Blake Griffin. Really nice kid. Hope he has some success. Some booming dunks. Lots of hype. Below average shot but will improve. Couple defensive highlights. Probably not superstar but solid starter for 7-10 years.

Lots of injuries and 1 Kardashian.

How long before he forces his way out of New Orleans?

[mjsuax13]

How long have they been giving out the MVP?? One 6'6" PF is MVP in all those years, and Draymond has NEVER been the best player on any of the Warriors teams, as low as the 4th or 5th best on many of them. I stand by my statement.

Draymond all time great. LOL

[spippen]

Tonight we see.

[seaborneq]

Tonight we see.

Not seeing much. Looks like the worse athlete on the court at all times.

[jjgold]

He’s not playing much man is his team terrible

[Grits n' Gravy]

Very nice scoring burst. The jumper looks smooth. Really want him to succeed. New Orleans has a lot of young talent to try and build with.

Zion needs to be honest with team about how his knee feels every game. Don’t force things right now.

[shadymcgrady]

Gentry had to change his mind twice with subs

[play4win]

he scored like 15 points in 3 minutes!
4/4 3points

[play4win]

if you load management zion he average 30 points a game playing only 20 minutes a gameit's over

[Ironman07]

Wow to all the experts that though he'd fail for the same reason you loose all the time....Gentry shuts him down knowing he'll be a superstar who will lead them soon to many finals....

[eidolon]

Anybody watching the game tonight?
It might just be me, but the game sound seems to be putting out artificial sneaker sounds. I might be wrong, it just sounds like it.

[play4win]

fire that bum gm and coach! they are haters. why is zion on bench?

[IBetYou]

He looked just like he did in pre-season... phenominal. Very unselfish/ unassuming and didn't want to disrupt chemistry (did anyway) hence the quiet start.

Mark Jackson said in the 1st Quarter Morant should have been the #1 pick ...what an idiot. Like picking Derrick Rose over Giannis.

[Grits n' Gravy]

fire that bum gm and coach! they are haters. why is zion on bench?

He needs to be brought along slowly until he is comfortable with knee. It is a marathon, not a sprint.
