I’m sure he could if he had the green light to take as many shots as possible. I just don’t see it happening on THIS New Orleans team.
Zion Williamson Bust Watch
- Thread starter Dr. Fauci
- Start date
Trot LaRoc
Superstar
Im seeing 16 pts/8 rbs/1 stl/1 blk this year
What's this about
He needs to develop a jumper. Its one thing to bully soft ass ATL in the preseason. Once the season progresses and defenses figure him out/he starts to wear down(sorry dude is fat) he won't be effective. Plus nobody in that starting lineup stretches the floor at all. May have to start reddikk
No Jokic is fat...
Rigby.
The #1 Rated Mixtape of all Time
his finishing even when he aint dunking
if they intend on continuing to run him against 3s its GG for the leaguecant wait for that first time he meets Bron at the rim
They both are. Zion may not be as doughy but he fat. Doesn't matter because Jokic game doesn't rely on transition offense and pure athelticism
how is the dude fat? he is not fat at all he just isn't skinny/frail....
Bledswole
Slappin and clowning chumps for fun.
He fasho needs a jumper
But long as he doesn’t get hurt/have a major injury nobody gonna be able to stop him once he plant his feet and leap,too strong and too explosive
Not a chance he averages 25 ppg without a jumpshot, especially not at 50+% (which is an arbitrary nonsensical mark as it is). You're in for a rude awakening if you think he's gonna put up production like that.
How many people are rooting and hoping for him to fail in this thread?yall its some miserable people in this world....and the coli especially
for nikkas to actually root and hope for this cat to fail
says alot about yall
how shytty must life be for you cats?
All I see is folks trying to discuss his game, and the limitations he has. And I mean, if this is how you gauge the miserable demographic on here, then that line of thinking would apply to 99.9% of this board (and yes, that includes you). This board sure has reached a dark place where we can't even breakdown a player's game anymore without being accused of praying on their downfall.

Who's man is this?
Blake Griffin was able to average almost 23 ppg at over 50% without a jumper his rookie year....but its impossible for the best prospect since Bron to do it? Ok bruh.
of course he doesnt get it. he's basically a kid. there's a reason a lot of these guys be out of shape coming into the summer. its because they havent seen a basketball since the tourny. people dont realize that. thats 2 or 3 months of no hoop. just working out regularly and doing your normal routine. maybe throw in some stuff you may have to do in a combine but he was #1. Z didnt have to work out for anyone. What i'm saying is, i'm not nearly as worried as others are. I think with time and a NBA trainer, he will be lighter than he has been in college. and even then he LOOKED fatter than he actually was because of his large jaws. people see those chicks and think fat boy. but he wasnt fat at all. some of it is just him growing up and coming into his grown man body. he doesnt even know what his true walking around weight will be as a full grown 23 year old or so. he will be stronger just on the fact he's officially grown by then. more muscle as well.
he just doesnt make me think lazy when i see him play. its just going to be tough for him to keep the weight off vs other skinny dudes that are naturally rail thin at 6'7.
you cant compare the two. Bron got into the super training after years in the nba. he wasnt doing all of what he does now back in the early days. no one ever is. as hard as kobe was working he was living off of mcdonalds burgers and fries. he said it himself. horrible habits early on like pretty much every other young dude. you live and you learn.
