if u have no.1 pick, duncan or zion?

[bobopenguin]

if we throw 21yrs old duncan back in this upcoming draft.. vs the 19yrs old zion, who would u guys pick first?

Tim duncan:

"Duncan is one of college's most dominating centers to play the game since
HAKEEM OLAJUWAN. Duncan makes all the right plays offensively which is
perhaps his only weakness is that it is raw but still devloping.
He is a HUGE defensive presence in the paint as a rebounder and a
shot-blocker. He isn't the kind of leader that some coaches would prefer."

Zion Williamson:

"Williamson has backed up the hype over his tools, bounce and quickness, which alone have been highly functional and effective. He ranks in the 89th percentile in transition, the 89th percentile on offensive rebound putbacks and the 87th percentile on cuts.

He'll immediately enter the league as one of its most destructive athletes, with physical abilities that create a special advantage at both ends, regardless of how refined or polished he becomes."

Duncan of course.

I don't expect much from Zion, apart from winning the slam dunk contest.

LOL

Duncan was a 2-way monster and fundamentally sound AF, one of the more NBA-ready rookies I ve seen, also a good athlete, millenials here only remember old washed Timmy, go watch some young and prime/peak TD.

You could argue Duncan as the all time #1 overall pick far as best franchise player. You get 20 years of absolute unselfishness from a guy you can give 30 shots or 4 without complaint.....elite D....and you can coach him hard which helps keep everyone else humble? Nobody has a bad word to say about him....no distractions...no controversy....shuts up and plays basketball. Makes not a peep no matter how the team decides to use him.

Combo of longevity, professionalism, offense, defense, and coachability?

You really have to consider him as the all time #1 pick. A lot of the better players arent as useful for the long term interests of your franchise.

Folks are always going to take the big man, for some reason.

Hakeem & Bowie over Jordan

Oden over Durant




I'm taking Zion every time. Especially in today's game.

[Uncle Drew]

What kind of question is that

[SouBeachTalents]

What kind of question is that

At least make it reasonable, like AD or Zion

[Ben Simmons 25]

Tim Duncan.

I’ll post a video of me sucking a **** if I’m wrong.

I’ll post a video of me sucking a **** if I’m right.

I’ll post a video of me sucking a **** no matter what.

[AirFederer]

Duncan every day and twice on Sunday

[Gotterdammerung]

Note how media pundits aren't willing to go further back than Anthony Davis when comparing Zion to the best number 1 draft pick.

Nobody with more than four brain cells is saying Zion will be the best pick from the last 20 plus years.

[Mask the Embiid]

I'd rather have a 1 in 100 chance of Zion turning out to be the next lebron, than to have the sure thing in Tim Duncan(inferior to lebron).....That's just how highly i think of lebron


im rollin' with Zion.I''l risk the gamble

The upside is simply too high to pass up on

[G0ATbe]

Zion.

[AirTupac]

Zion. Tim was largely a product of Pop. Who knows what Tim would have become wasting on the Kings or Suns. You think a swimming fakkit who picked up a basketball at 16.....is a better prospect than Zion? These idiots are comparing an 18 year old to a finished hall of fame veteran but we're comparing them as 18 year old prospects who are about to be drafted.

Zion.
