THEE OFFICIAL 2019-2020 NBA OFFSEASON THREAD: VICTORY LAP

[nick.]

I'm probably late on this but I like this new shot clock thing TNT is doing

I think it's pointless to have it on the score graphic and the floor

Nunn gave Harden some sauce

RJ is such a high IQ player for someone his age. Plays like a veteran. Hope that shot falls because he can score in the paint almost at ease in his no wiggle unorthodox ways.

It kind of threw me off when the clock was still visible when a player was shooting free throws. But, that led to this thought: TNT should troll free throw shooters who take too long at the line by putting a 10-second clock on the floor and counting down.

As I posted b4 I think Corliss Williamson is a great example to use for Zion he was BIG in College and just played in the paint/low post

He slimmed down and became a very versatile 3 man in the NBA taking guys off the dribble, face up shooter and still had post up moves

Now I know that wont be Zion as there games are vastly different but body wise its not a bad road to follow or hes gonna end up the crocked knees version of bad back Larry Johnson.

I feel like now I won't have to divert my focus from the ball to check shot clock. I like it.

zion a naturally thicc boy. would not be surprised if he actually gains weight as his body matures and develops.

raptors starting to 6 foot PGs

[everysingletime]

Ja bout to give Zion some comp for ROY, especially if his knee keeps him out of games

 

[everysingletime]

Who do you think will be the better rookie. NAW or Tyler Herro?

 

[Maximus Meridius]

Yikes at that airball Lonzo put up. His shooting is always gonna be a flaw. His mechanics are all f'ed up. He still gon be a valuable player cuz he does so many things on the court.

I got Ja winning ROY. The hype is so big on Zion I can see people having fatigue from it and Zion still need to clean up a lot. Lose weight, do more than dunks and layups.

I like both but it seems like NAW's versatility makes him the better prospect, as well as his defensive potential. Herro might still have the better rookie season though if NAW gets stuck on the bench

I was willing to take NAW at 4 back in March if Dallas kept the pick

if he’s healthy, there won’t be any Zion fatigue. Zion just gotta play no less than 10 games Morant and it’s an easy ROY

 

[everysingletime]

Lonzo's stroke looks pretty good here

I've seen this plenty of times. When Zion is going through his rookie slump it will be a turn and people making wild statements. It's this hot take era we're in.

and Morant won’t? You know he can’t really shoot and he’s playing the toughest position for a rookie

 

[antidope]

I'm sure she consulted with her doctor but nah...

he shot 32/31/76. He ain’t got it

 

[everysingletime]

I'm amazed at how MJ found driving lanes in this era

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

8 out the last 11 ROY's played point guard. Ben Simmons, Evans, Rose, MCW didn't shoot either

Zion is definitely the favorite but Ja can give him some comp. He's going to get all the touches and will walk into mid 6 assists per. Raw numbers should be up there and raw numbers are always key in ROY
