    Huh? Or is that an old-school "it's gotta be the shoes" riff?

    It's gotta be the shoes.

    21-9-5stl in the first half leads me to believe he's feeling fine.

    Lebron?

    Let's be real he is the spitting image of Lebron in college.

    He's the Rick James of college hoops.

    Superfreak.

    More inside, less outside.

    He's also built like a Mack truck, but he doesn't quite have the outside game that little Lebron did. I'd have loved to see young Lebron vs. Zion, first to 21, best of 3. Could have sold out MSG for that.

    Lebron could have also bulked up like Zion his body can handle all those extra pounds. If Lebron didnt have MJ as his idol and grew up dedicated to being a big man like Zion did pretty sure he would also be built like a mack truck.

    Conversely if Zion wants to have a 20 yr career of excellence like where Lebron is trending towards he needs to slim down or stop dunking because his knees wont be able to handle that stress. I remember Blake Griffin dunked like this in college too, look at him now very little explosion left.

    Ok then.

    ...and Hakeem would have never beat the Jordan Bulls. Sure.

    I was just saying that those are the 2 most physically and skillfully gifted young big players I've seen (throw Giannis and Anthony Davis in there too, if somebody wants next) recently.

    Really? High school then I dont follow NCAA. I remember Lebron was already called the chosen one and dunking all over everybody even before the NBA.
