You’re also a homer

You also give no facts or reasoning for your opinions. Duke statistically was a fringe top 50 defense without him and a top 5 defense with him on the court. You respond back to that with great counterpoints such as "lol no," "nah lol" and "you're a homer."

He had one of the best freshmen seasons in the history of college basketball. The thing that will help Williamson is that he doesn't need to score to impact the game. He'll be an elite defender, rebounder, and plays extremely hard every night. The only way that he's not an All-Star level player is if he gets hurt. 

What a plant doesn't College doesn't necessary result equal production in the NBA level. Doug McDermott is one of the greatest scorers in college basketball history and can't score in the NBA to save his life

Doug McDermott was also playing mid-major basketball and was limited athletically. Whereas Zion dominated against one of the toughest schedules in college basketball and might be the freakiest athlete to ever enter the league.

Creighton is in the Big East I wouldn't call them mid-level basketball

LOL at clowns like @dtait93 that don't even watch these kids play and make claims. Statistically he was one of the elite defensive players in college basketball last season.

Creighton wasn't in the Big East until McDermott's final year in college and the conference was falling apart when Creighton got there, it was essentially a mid-major conference.

He'll be the best defensive player from this draft. Can defend 1-5, great weakside shot blocker, laterally quick enough to defend smaller guys and strong enough to bang with bigger guys. 

He got beat a decent amount 1v1 in college.

And statistically, he's the best player in the draft and graded out as the 4th best defensive player in college basketball according to defensive rating...

I don’t need to because I’m right. He will never be DPOY like Draymond. Your claims are outlandish so I don’t need to refute your lunacy with reason.

1 year of playing good defense against future accountants and doctors does not equate to being Draymond Green, a DPOY. Like I said, you’re a homer.

I don't think you can claim he wont win it. Why respond if you give awful explanations. You make yourself sound like you havent watched any Zion college games.
