    Time to mute the broadcast.
    He's not that bad, tbh. Jackson, on the other hand, yeah.

    They're both awful. Those two, Reggie Miller, Chris Webber, and Marv Albert all need to be booted off the air forever.

    We will never fix the turnover problem with Lonzo and Bledsoe as our lead guards. It's obvious.

    Top 7 most blocked players of all time:

    7) Kobe Bryant
    6) Allen Iverson
    5) Pau Gasol
    4) Shareef Abdur-Raheem
    3) Zach Randolph
    2) Carmelo Anthony
    1) Tim Duncan

    Interesting little side note to your comment.

    I can just smell it. Old habits die hard.

    Maybe it's just I've warmed on him in particular. There was a time I disliked him with a passion but I think his personality lends itself to growing on people (some). The rest though, you'll see no disagreement from me. Chris and Marv in particular are just horrendous.

    Hornets are starting to make their 3 ball and we still are turning the ball over

    I love what I'm seeing from Zion on both ends overall, but the next step is clearly learning the fundamentals of defensive footwork. He gets turned around defending while changing direction waaaaaaay too easily.

    Zion needs to posterize some people. He is the layup king this year.

    Zion has to play more 'turn your back to your player' defense than anybody in NBA history.

    People who didn't realise this didn't watch enough college Zion. While it's true he did used to dunk somewhat more than this, he only actually dunked like once or twice a game at Duke. His upside as a finisher around the hoop was always based on his outlier touch and craft, not the fact that he dunks everything

    Yeah, like I said. Footwork's a problem right now. Want to see him put in the work and look much better in that respect in the coming years.

    And not that it matters, but I think that's what makes his game so aesthetically pleasing and compelling to watch. Seeing a big guy like him making finishes like Kyrie Irving is just so oddly satisfying

    Zion has only 2 defensive rebounds to this point. When Adams is out, the board is open!!
