    I meant Shaq's skills and strength in Durant's body... :)

    Yeah I guess you mean their similar length. But as far as musculature goes, Giannis is on a different planet. He's shredded...

    I thought Detroit would bring back oj mayo but Detroit might do Blake Griffin for Zion draft night trade.

    I remember Shaq going coast to coast like a PG, dribbling behind his back and laying it in at the other end. If he wasn't so heavy, he could definitely handle the ball a bit more.

    No rebuilding team would trade Zion for Blake. There's just zero chance.

    Nah if Durant tried to do what Shaq did his body will break down. Giannis a lot closer to Lebron than he is to Durant they may have the same height but Giannis has a lot more mass on his body.

    Giannis should only play the first half
    If Blake is not playing. . . should be a 30 point lead by halftime
    Then Play the third stringers

    Anything other than Bucks vs Raps in the ECF is a huge shock barring injuries.

    East is boring and a joke.

    They make the CF without playing Giannis.

    Zion will be closer to Lebron once he takes flight. And in terms of body mass. Not the passing though.
