LOVE the offer to Zion, maybe a lil granmama in him!
Yep. we see kids like him every year or two in college ball. Undersized PF type guys who run through, over and around everyone on their way to 20-10 seasons (or thereabouts).
I can envision Felton, White, and Black being extremely effective playing together. Not even sure at this stage who would play where but all three possess ballhandling, passing, and scoring skills. Of course, Felton could develop into a OAD so he might not be around.
Zion, 6'6" 250lbs broad shoulders and not just able but willing to brawl his way to the basket if he needs to. ya better get out of the way, that truck coming at you does not say Peterbilt on it, it says Zion. 6'6" and 250lbs and able to play above the rim with nasty attacking mind set...WoW, would it be cool if Zion were 6'6" and 250 lbs and could do all that, well he does do all that but he is ONLY 6'5" and ONLY weights in around 235lbs. ONLY...LOL
So who was 6'6" and 250lbs...Larry Grand-mama Johnson, thats who. He was pretty good...LOL
I REALLY like Zion !!!

Yep, I try not to pigeonhole recruits based on physical stats, Dave. If a guy can play PF effectively at 6-5, I have no problem with that at all. His height would be a definite disadvantage in the NBA but college is a whole different ball game. Charles Barkley was very effective playing PF in college. And while he was listed at 6-6, that was very generous by at least an inch.
Barley may have been closer to 6'4" than 6'6", what I really loved about Barkley was he learned how to use his BUTT to gain advantage over longer defenders and he was so strong & didn't mind contact at all. Barkley would back you down with that butt and those broad shoulders, he would bounce those longer defenders off of him on the back down and then take the angle he wanted to finish thru. JR Reid was really good at that as well, I really wish Meeks could learn to do that, believe it or not a butt can be a heck of a weapon and a problem for a defender! LOL
Makes ya wonder why Bertha didn't play college woman's hoops? LOL
Geez, you have no idea how much I would love to be there for this signing, as much for the barbque as the signing, actually, not gonna lie, more for the Q ! I am in SC, we got no Q here!
