DUKE IN THE NBA

I’m telling you. In this bubble arena, this is a shooters paradise. Small gym, no cavernous sight lines, dark backgrounds.

Excellent point! Gary is taking advantage of it and is going to make a lot of money from it (he was also playing well before COVID).

Im surprised JJ hasn’t taken advantage of this paradise. He’s still scoring, just thought this environment would provide an increase in his production off the bench.

It's a shame Okafor either doesn't grasp the aspect of playing defense or is just too slow. Last night I watched him on the offensive end abuse everyone in the paint. I know his back to the basket game is a lost art in the NBA but I can't believe he gets no PT unless half the team is sitting.
 
Zion Williams’ rookie season is over. In 24 games, Zion averaged 22.5 points, 6.3 rebounds and 2.1 assists on 58.3% from the field and 6-of-14 from 3.

According ESPN Stats and Info, Williamson is the 2nd rookie in NBA history to average 20 points while shooting 55% from the field. Shaquille O’Neal also did this during the 1992-1993 season. Exclusive company!

Zion is barely scratching the surface which isn't surprising for a 20 yr. old. When he recognizes the value of conditioning and fundamental defense he'll be Lebron-like. He has unique tools.

Agree. Zion dominated AND almost got his team to the playoffs in his first year. A well conditioned body and Zion is a Hall of Famer. EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THOSE KENTUCKY TURDS WHO SAID HE WOULDNT BE GOOD IN COLLEGE AND THEN HE WOULDNT BE GOOD IN THE NBA SHOULD RESIGN, LOL!
