Zion Block Party

[OldasdirtDevil]

Well, Nassir Small had a block party thread, so I thought it was appropriate that Zion had one. Of course, there is a slight difference on who's blocking who.

Monster Block

I just faked out Zion, and I'm going to be a Youtube sensation...whoops...not so fast grasshoppa...but you still made Youtube.

Okay, it's not a block, but an incredible oop to Zion by Tre. What a huge turnaround, Tre saving a sure layup by VT with the steal, and getting 2 points on the other end.

OFC

The ankle breaker pissed him off. He was on a mission to make up for it.

You could hear the crowd react to Robinson's move like he shook him, and bam he gets the block immediately. Unbelievable athleticism.

I like to think he did it on purpose to lull Robinson into a false sense of security just before he laid the smack down.

That recovery on Robinson tho!!! He was completely shook. Flipped his hips gathered one hop step and boom

That last block might have wound up winning the game for us.

It's shocking how good he is. We got lucky to get him.

I rarely marvel at a basketball player's athleticism because there are so many great athletes playing the game, but Zion has had some blocks that made my jaw drop. The speed and vertical combined with superb timing is something to behold.

Zion seems to do something each and every game more spectacular than the game before. Never have I seen such and I'm really getting old.

Couldn't believe the 1st one wasnt goaltending?! It just seemed physically impossible. Glad the ref didn't make one of those "anticipation " calls.

Good stuff.

I would of been ok with Zion giving him the Henderson to Hansbrough treatment.
