He’s going to make Detroit look pretty smart bringing him in.

Just sucks he went to a team with a ton of young guys at guard

Cade, Ivey, Beasley, Lavert, Sasser, Chaz

 

[utchs81]

Not sure who Hoop Herald is but apparently, he never met a participle he didn't like to dangle., Your welcome, Mrs. Thompson

 

[StoneokeyVol]

Z is the man

Yeah, he may not stick there with all those guys, but contributing the way he has so far has got to have some guard-hungry teams watching and wondering if he can help them out.

 

[VolFreakJosh]

Gillespie has some very big shoes to fill at the PG position

 

[Orangeblooded615]

Mashack looking good too. Defense will give them a shot.

IMO, teams like the Hawks or Rockets would be a good spot.

Other than VanFleet and Holiday at PG, they don’t have much. I guess Reed and Amen, but they aren’t really PGs. Fleet also getting older.

Hawks have Young, behind him you have Kennard and Daniels, which again neither are really PGs.


Edit; I’m not sure what each team drafted so I could be totally wrong.

Rockets had an open spot on their roster and seemingly needed another PG. Thought Kennedy Chandler had a chance with how well he had been playing in SL. But they signed another forward who can’t shoot to add to all their other forwards who can’t shoot instead:/

Ivey coming off injury and Beasley likely to never play in nba again after gambling scandal. He'll get a Knecht level shot I bet.

Well, dang that stinks.

I want him to get a TJ McConnell type role somewhere, but less shooting and more passing, I think that’ll fit him perfectly.

“You’re. The word is you’re. The contraction, not the possessive pronoun, your.”- Mrs. Thompson, probably

I deserved that.

 

[BreatheUT]

Love Z, but he has a hard hill to climb. He is 5'9". Size was his struggle sometimes at UT playing against bigger lineups. I think Spud Webb was 5'8" but he had an incredible vertical. That size is difficult to overcome in a league that clears out the lane so players can post you up.

 

[NighthawkVol]

I deserved that.

You did. But I appreciate your humility.

And I could have blamed autocorrect.

Bogues was 5.foot 3 inches tall he played in the nba

Bogues was 5.foot 3 inches tall he played in the nba

mugsy was a case of being so short he was UNDERNEATH the opposing point guards dribble

was also a helluva athlete with fantastic instincts timing and vision

 

[BreatheUT]

Bogues was 5.foot 3 inches tall he played in the nba

That was in an era when 3 second violations weren't called on the defense. You couldn't just clear out the lane to exploit, in Muggsy's case, a 1 foot height difference.

Lavert isn’t young as a ball player Beasley isn’t either and may be kicked out of the league for gambling.

Of course, those guys aren’t really who ZZ would be contending with.

Beasley is likely toast. He very clearly coordinated to do prop bet shaving. It’s just gonna come down to if they can get the evidence to connect him to it

Z could have absolutely played in the NBA during that era. It is a totally different style of game today. It is never good to say something is impossible. But it is a massive mountain to climb for him to play in the CURRENT NBA.

You couldn’t exactly camp out in the lane then, either, which is why it descended into ISO ball by the end of the era. No double teaming off the ball meant you could use ISO to force a 1-on-1.
