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

shaq for sure, dwight prob a lot, giannis maybe but hes always fancied himself a J tho.

more likely theres a few per season like zubac where its just a center getting a bunch of o rebounds tips and dump off passes for dunks. wouldnt be surprised if guys like jarrett allen, drummond, deandre, whiteside or even gobert have done it in the last half decade or so.

the cool thing with zion is hes usually like full head of steam coming downhill and has all these unique angles off the glass.

yeah its mostly drives, the combo of nice handles defenders bouncing off of him and elite finishing skills is so sick

the vertical leaping too of course

yeah it really is the mixture of all the elements that make him special. we've had plenty of dunkers and high flyers but this is just something else completely.

he has really good feel for the game too hes not just a freak hes a true baller

I hope he adds a Tim Duncan like bank shot to his bag.

that would be sweet. being able to steamroll over everyone and get to the cup is probably not conducive to focusing too much on your footwork, but he's got plenty of time, sky's the limit

whenever i read this thread i get the (great) lauryn hill sing stuck in my head then i find myself singing it and realize im singing it to zion williamson which is even better lol

wonder if hes named after the song, didnt find any info by googleing but the timeline checks out the album came out in 98 he was born in 2000

lol same xp. would not be surprised if that was the story behind his namesake

Maybe his rents are Rastas?

his family are big christians iirc

Zion Williamson.

he looks at the rim the way I look at a donut when I'm extremely high

looks like hes standing at halfcourt and is very large

needs to happen, with the pels wrecking the suns in the semis

pels warriors wcf i will accept

we def need another suns pels playoffs matchup tho. and a gsw memphis one

its time for some new guys

it may be

griz young legs and physicality could, and has tbf, def cause the dubs major problems, classic changing of the guard matchup, pelicans too actually

i dont think the warriors have played healthy vs a healthy (with Zion) pels team yet

dray v zion could be pretty nice

zion doesnt seem to think too much of rudy lol

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D5KbwD1pOMA

just constantly challenging him lol

driving straight at the two time defensive player of the year over and over why not

learning on the fly literally

ha yeah

speaking of rudy

lolllll fuck rudolph gogurt

what a loser

entire league hates rudy but zion is one of the only players w/ the game to put that into action on the court

at least in the regular season anyway...

lol was gonna say..

zion loves to dunk on rudy its his favorite

He spent the entire end of that game just going after Rudy again and again. It was beautiful.
