Zion opinion: I will root for him. If somehow he ever becomes the villain like Heat Lebron did, it will be fun to root against him. Either way I'm happy he is in the NBA. He seems like he's just a good and goofy kid who is built like a tank and is really good at basketball.

I am embracing the Zion era.

also i am predicting Zion to be successful because he has a successful name.

Lebron James
David Robinson
Michael Jordan
Kareem Abdul Jabbar
Magic Johnson

These are successful athlete names.

We can add Zion Williamson to that I think.

My theory is not a guarantee, but it is sound.

Someone explain to me how a draft can be rated the day after the draft. I'm not joking, I really want to know the process.

Because if I make some insane prediction about the draft and I’m right, I can coast on that for the next 20 years.

Hot take: Bol Bol won't be in the NBA when Lebron retires. And I feel like I'm cheating by making that prediction way too safe.

Hot take: Kyrie is overrated and nobody is going to win a championship with him as their number one guy, or as their number 2 since he probably won’t be Ball dominant.

E: apparently apple thinks ball is a proper noun sometimes.

Spring Break My Heart posted:

A team already won with him as their #2, and there's like maybe 5 guys who you could win with as your best player.

I guess you’re right. He was definitely the ball dominant player on the Cleveland Lebrons.

E: I’m not editing my post to run from my shame but I misread your post. I don’t think Kyrie is a good enough leader to win as the main guy on a team, and I don’t think he can win as the #2 guy because he has become a guy who needs to have the ball in his hands too much to settle for that. I think winning a title as the number 2 guy to one fo the greatest athletes to ever live can be considered a bit of an outlier, but I don’t think Kyrie is the same guy he was that year.

as far as franchises that are *~*historically relevant*~* are the knicks the most overrated franchise ever? i feel like they have this aura or mystique or whatever that just kind of appeared there. it wasn't like they went out and had a dynasty at any point... ever.

i guess i just wonder why the knicks are relevant other than being in NYC

There is no way KD is going to a second rate franchise like the Nets. They are about a billion times more second rate than the Clippers are.

i think KD is in his feelings enough to think he needs to bring a franchise like the nets to a title in order to shed his reputation for being a bitch

Lakers have two of the top like 5-10 guys in the league and at least actually put some shooters around them this time, I still think all the sky is falling poo poo with them is way overblown.

good thing they have depth in case one of those two gets injured.

Their salary cap is called a show budget.

Depending on the notoriety of the reporter, do you think that will have an influence on the show budget year to year?

(You’re arguing apples and moon dust)

For example, a lone reporter/anchor’s salary can raise an entire show budget. But nobody’s single salary is going to force the cap to go up.

As much as I dislike LBJ the basketball player (because I’m an irrational sports fan of course), I can’t think of a better mentor to young players and I hope Zion reaches out to him or vice versa. I don’t feel like Zion is as committed as I originally thought and I really, really want him to be successful in the NBA. He’s so fun to watch.

Thanks for reading my morning poop thoughts.
