That's who I think of every time I watch him, and maybe Reddish and a few others are better NBA prospects but I don't think many if any are better suited for immediate impact at the college level. He'd be a dominant 4-man from the jump.

Can someone help me please? I'm looking for the board where we compare zion Williamson to all of unlvs teams. So far we have Larry and Stacy. I'll go with greg Anthony just shorter.

If anyone compared him to Augmon, they're stupid.

Likewise, anyone who doesn't see the Johnson comparison is stupid.

So, which are you?

I wasn't implying that comment towards you, which I should of made clear. I believe it was our residential Nostradamus who compared the two. I'll give you johnson though.

Will this be your assessment if he commits to Duke or Kansas?

Actually if Williamson doesn't come to UK, I'd rather him go to Kansas. Always enjoy their heralded freshmen choking in big tournament games.

Maybe he'd give Kansas those 4 points Wiggins gave them in that 2nd round debacle. Perhaps he could match that mammoth 10-point game Jackson gave the Chokehawks in the blowout loss to Oregon last year. [laughing]

This thread is so summer haha. Love it.

You guys beat me to every joke I thought of.

On a serious note, I do see the Larry Johnson, Shawn Kemp explosiveness. He's just so damn strong, that he bullies the other players. Those guys are few and far in between

Larry Johnson was a beast. Hank Gathers before his tragic death is the only other player on that level at that time.

I agree! I said this to he first time I saw video of him early this year, that he looked like "grand ma-ma".
