    Dude, he was a NUMBER ONE pick.
    Just the fact that you just compared him to Big Baby Davis shows how much of a FAIL his career has been.

    Yes, it's a bit harsh but he is as big as a house.

    Yea, for me the painted court/mic'd coaches/color commentators talking WAY too much during play/Doc Rivers: he adds nothing and his voice grates on my nerves.

    Our Defense was great and set us up for everything else.

    TBH, I seriously wanted the Pels outside shots to fall after we were up 33. But they were icy from outside. The last 18 mins of the game was sheer garbage time. I did not see that coming...

    This game was the Bizarro World version of our 44 point loss in PHI; we win by 44 and I honestly thought we'd lose a close one going into the game. Wow.

    And I actually think our D can be even better than what we saw tonight.

    Zion is built like a planet. Let's call it what it is.

    Doesn't NO have a fitness trainer? Can't be that expensive to hire a top-rate dietician.

    They're paying Zion enough, you'd think you'd want him to work enough to earn it.

    Zion's so fat that when he goes camping the bears hide their food.

    A "rich-man's Big Baby Davis": that burns, but at this point it's more like he's a poor man's Big Baby. OUCH!

    I was worried about who was going to take on handling Zion’s mass and strength. Pssshh …. LeBron no sweat. Even stood in there taking charges from the dude and bounced back up on the last one and sprinted down the court. Incredible. Again. That word!

    Yeah, but Bron is one of the best conditioned athletes ever, and Zion was eventually struggling to lightly jog up and down the court. This is not going to work for him.

    ...has to be all that Gumbo and Jambalaya along with boxes of Dunkin' Donuts for dessert.

    His last name should be changed to a Louisiana Zip Code.

    That’s quite the short highlight clip in there. The opposite of Luka at 16-17 making grown a** men look like fools. LeBron at 39 making good players in their 20s and primes look like little boys.

    You mean like in this clip?



    I've seen Barkley run faster to the big in studio monitor where Kenny breaks down highlights.

    Training facility would be a good spot though.

    Good lord. Those arms and then the "fat suit" underneath. Is this the heaviest he's ever been, all you Zion watchers? And this guy has the balls to complain about anything with the organization? :clap: :rofl:
