Duke 72 Virginia 70

[PurplePride92]

IMO this is Duke’s biggest win of the season so far. Winning a game against one of the best teams in the country without Tre Jones is a big deal.

 

On to the next one. Pittsburgh won’t be an easy game.

[TheDeuce]

Definitely agree this was a big win for Duke.

I realize Duke has several great players but Zion Williamson is beyond phenomenally good. I’ve seen him compared to a cross between Larry Johnson and Charles Barkley. That’s probably a good comparison. It’s simply amazing that a guy his size has the quickness and vertical leaping ability—-and stamina—-that he has. He’ll be number one in the draft for sure and will be a star in the league for many years.

I’m not sure who to compare him to. I haven’t seen anyone like him for real. He’s so damn good.

The kid is fun to watch and I keep forgetting just how young he is.

He’s so much better than I thought he was going to be.

 

I thought he was strictly a highly athletic guy with an average skill set. I was very wrong.

 

I don’t care much for Duke but Zion is so much fun to watch.

 

Seems like a decent kid too.

LeBron? Is that what Lebron would have looked like as a college freshman?

No. LeBron was much more fluid. Zion is a physical monster. Probably 50 lbs more than LeBron at that age. Zion would be the second heaviest player in the NBA today. He is Julius Randle cross-pollinated with the Incredible Hulk.

Cross-pollinated with the Hulk. I like that comparison.

John Stockton? Muggsy Bogues? Lol...

 

His butt is even wider than Tractor Traylor's was when he was in college...

I'm not a Duke fan but the kid is good. Zion > LeBron.

[Randy Parker]

The dunk by Zion was hilarious. My goodness. :lol2:

Huh?!!???! I like Zion too but let's pump the brakes just a little? Better than Lebron?

I would take him over LeBron any day. Every day. All Day.

Love seeing that Duke won this one.
