Now the joooooy of my woooorld is in ZIIIIION — thread for Zion Williamson

zion posting in transition

Zion Williamson is here to save the Pelicans, and along the way, he just might save the low-post game, too. https://t.co/4rLrZo0cgI pic.twitter.com/1qZarE73yn

Cool. Has he been coached to do that or is it hoops instinct?

the article credits coaching but theres not any proof of it in there quotes or whatever

the one time my ex-D2 hooper friend wanted to make a point that I had no chance of guarding him if he played at >75% of his capabilities, he'd just sprint down court, get in the key, seal me off, and I was as helpless as a newborn

I miss PGs who would back down into the post, a la Magic. I guess Giannis does that fairly often huh.

westbrook does it a little. chauncey was good at it iirc

oh yep Russ. Chauncey was who came to mind as one of the last to do it. Andre Miller too.

gonna just keep upping his career high til he drops 100 hopefully

He's even less comprehensible in person.

his ~10 game highlight reel is already better than most pros full career reel

he does something truly astonishing several times a night

The Beast of the Bayou.

his rebound over the top of dwight last night got me up out of my seat

Zion flying over Howard for this offensive rebound is SCARY athleticism ... pic.twitter.com/zUbkDpXViy

lol wtf

reminds me of
http://usatftw.files.wordpress.com/2019/03/zion1-4.jpg

gravity is a social construct

a thread for pictures of floating zion is likely not too far in our future

wtf looks like a video game glitch

Zion and Doncic facing off, what a wonderful world

madness

seems like a nice kid who might need a bit more media training

Remember when we used to be excited about our special boy

our grand boy's still finding his feet in the nba. or maybe he's aware this is a cursed season that won't count for or against his eventual place.

22-9 55% 20 years old

i'm still excited, except when it comes to watching literally everyone else on the pelicans

Yah that may be the problem.

zion when he not throwing down thunderous dunks is the ultimate makes it look easy guy, catches the ball on the move and is at the rim for a layup, and it just looks like a play anyone couldve made but really its not

hes been the fastest to all the hundreds of points milestones since iverson and everyone is all i wonder if this guy is gonna do anything, hes played 35 games and averaged 20+pts the whole time

Yah he’s basically a rookie

i still enjoy watching both zion and new orleans, it's just very hit and miss right now for basketball in general right now

realized recently zion is like if zach randolph was, impossibly, a ballerina

ha otm

Zion getting some work in before the game.

god he was so fucking fun to watch, really hope there's more in the tank

This is making me sad

i mean, he isn’t dead lol. he is going to be fun to watch the second he steps back on a court. he just needs to get in shape to be a much better basketball player and to have a long career

hope there's more in the tank

zion i still a very young man and an incredible athlete. but he's a long way from being in nba game condition.

i mean, he isn’t dead lol. he is going to be fun to watch the second he steps back on a court. he just needs to get in shape to be a much better basketball player and to have a long career

i mean nothing is written in stone but its def not a great sign
