George was pretty spot on about Zion. So I might have to agree with his white boy junior varsity dig

Re: NBA Thread
Well, Zion is ahead of his time with Shawn Kemp. He's much fatter faster than Kemp ever got there
Like I said, Ja Morant is the best player in that draft and it's not even close

Re: NBA Thread
I don't think it'll be this season.
KD had the same injury and had to get 3 surgeries. With Zion and his weight, I can't imagine it'll be good. Granted, every injury is different so that doesn't mean Zion will need that many surgeries, but just pointing out even with a skinny dude, this can be a tough injury to come back from.
The main issue is the messaging. Zion's camp was adamant to put it out there that he'd be back for game #1 when there was no chance that would happen, that never made any sense. IT's only made things much worse with the fans who expected a quick return because Zion said he'd be back, and now I don't think he's coming back this season at all. I don't really want him to at this point, to be honest. Don't get me wrong, I'd love to at least try to get into a play in game, but would prefer to just keep with a bottom 5 top record and get that draft pick and try it all over again next season with Zion.

Re: NBA Thread
Shel, if you wanna watch the best player from the 2019 draft you can see him on TNT. Billy, you may not want to watch though.
This Grizzlies team is fun to watch. Since Thanksgiving they are 1st in: NET rating, Defense, offensive rebounds, steals, win percentage.
The one thing I like about this team is they get in the paint to score and don't just rely on the 3.

Re: NBA Thread
Just curious what you guys think of the TNT crew of Kenny, Shaq and chuck?
I love listening to them banter back and forth. Barkley is my favorite basketball player of all time so I may be biased. And I love Shaqs humor. Sometimes it's hard to understand the two though, it's almost like they talking with a fistful of hot nickels in their mouth and then there's other time it's easy to understand them

Whatever! That's a problem with today, everyone always thinks something is racist. 100% had zero racial undertones in my comment, implied or not
