Zion at 31.7 rebounds, six assists, two steals and a blowout win over the Grizzlies.

After the game, Stan Van said Quote, We keep trying to find Mawr and MAWR.

Ways to use Zion.

Why not?

Sounds like a lot of fun if you're a coach.

Zion has now played 50 MBA games.

He scored at least 20 points on 50% shooting 34 of those outings.

That's tied with Shack for the most in the last 40 seasons.

Michael Jordan did that 29 times.

Fist.

How do you evaluate Zion when you look at him now, over these 1st 50 games with a little bit of a sample size?

Now I mean first office, everything I expected.

This guy is different.

He's special.

I mean, whatever you wanna put on it, that's what he is.

The only question about Zion was always can he stay healthy and they've done a great job with that.

He's in great shape, and, like you said, Stan has trying to figure out more ways to use this guy.

And earlier, when you know a few shows back I said it, this guy's gonna be one of our top scores.

Top rebounders, top playmakers.

He has all of that in this bag, and I know people may think you know off with this comparison, but he reminds me so much from a skill standpoint with power of Charles Barkley.

If you watch old Charles Barkley film, Barkley had handled Barkley bring a coast to coast.

Barkley could shoot threes.

He was unstoppable, one on one in the post.

He could pass the ball out of the post, and he was a relentless competitors.

Er, he was physical.

So when I look at Zion, I see that body of work is just in a bigger body on.

That's what makes him scary.

And, man, is he fun to watch.

And I'm just loving every minute of it.

Absolute look, Zion Williamson is box office, and he has lived up to expectations and the height, that body frame that's a freight train coming.

But I'm so I'm more impressed about his footwork and how mobile he is at that size.

He reminds me of Charles Barkley, yes, but he also remind me of your kid by the name of Kingston Bergen, because that big body with those great feet and the way that he's able to move and how agile he is.

He is special.

Rachel s facial, and he has not let us down.

Oh, my gosh.

Watching him is so fun.

We had so many expectations for him.

Perk.

What?

What is this matched up in terms of?

We know he's great.

We talk about his projected future.

But when he grabbed when he left Duke and and got drafted number one, did you expect him to look like this as a player?

I did the way that he dominated college.

I knew that he was gonna come into the league and do the same thing because he's something that really we've never seen before.

He's physical.

He plays with the energy level that I really don't see a lot of superstars play with.

And that energy level is like joking Noah, where he is more of a skill like I see him diving on the floor for loose balls and making those winning plays and having ah, high Motor add Netto.

What he already have is a major plus, absolutely, he's just fun.

He's so fun.

Last night was a great game, and those two are gonna go at each other for a long time.
