I agree with Shannon and if I was the pelicans I would try to trade this pick. Him not losing weight and the way he is eating would frighten me if I was a team owner/GM. His motor is there but I think he lacks discipline

[@thenervepodcast]

sure he will

[@alonzorandolph609]

I think his size will hurt him he only 6,6 that's small for a forward in the nba basketball is skill and size and being at 285 , that's a lot playing games every other night I hope the guy do well , but they putting to much on him he a kid at 18 and been playing against kids the nba is men it's going to take him 3 to 4 yr's in the nba to do something his size is going to be a problem only 6,6 that's small playing under a nba basket

Draymond Green didnt know how to shoot and was a negative, shooting more than Danny green who clearly wasnt a liability even though Danny had the 2nd highest 3 pointer percent during the season then went absolutely ghost in the finals? Boogie can't be good and is washed except in game 2 where he got Warriors the win? CP3 wasn't going to beat Warriors even when they took them to game 7 that year? Kevin Love would have got only 8 points even when he averaged 16 in the playoffs against Warriors when he came back? Curry didn't go 0-8 in the last quarter and brick a wide open shot?

He will be a good player but not a superstar. Blake Griffin kind of player. There’s too much hype on him and this is NBA. He’ll be around real player.

[@akw829]

How do we know if he will be a superstar or not? He hasn't shown himself to be industry prone. He doens't have an attitude...he speaks humbly and he has athleticism out of the world. He only needs to drop 20lbs and get a good sold jumper. If he creates a Blake Griffin type of jumper then that's pretty good.

[@MrLarryLessor]

I feel your point Wendolin: Zion didn't even lead Duke into the Final Four this year. He never had a National Championship - Jordan at least hit a game-winning shot in the Final Four. Pat Ewing won a National Championship. Even Jo Noah had the most blocks in an NCAA game or something like that. Superstar is a warped idea nowadays - Is AD a Superstar? He can 't even lead a team into the playoffs. Is Giannis a Superstar - yes - but he also could not lead a team past the Raptors. Kareem won how many national titles in college? He went to the Bucks and he and the Big O won the chip by like Kareem's 2nd or 3rd year in the NBA?? These are special players: Kareem - Magic - Larry - MJ - Wilt Chamberlain. I don't think Zion gets anywhere close to those top 5. I don't think he'll be as good a shooter as Tim Duncan - or as good at shot blocking as Tim.. Zion is athletic - but he's just not that tall. 6 ft 7 is scottie pippen's height. Wilt, Bill Russell, Tim Duncan, Patrick Ewing could all get tons of rebounds and block shots on Zion. Zion reminds me of Saquon Barkley: Very appealing marketing ability. Off-the charts electric moving ability. But not really THAT powerful or big enough to be fully dominant. Charles Barkley.... interesting comparison. Barkley was a star - but not a top 10 All Time great.

[@nostalgicbliss5547]

@@MrLarryLessor I don't think many are expecting Zion to be a top 10 all time player. His height is not really a worry, it's more his wingspan. Since he only has a 6'10 wingspan which is nothing special for a power forward. Barry Sanders was just 5'8 and was very dominant. Saquon is 5'11 and like 230 pounds of muscle. The dude has more than enough size to dominate for years to come.
