Zion saying "I don't want to go there" and going back to school and putting his future in jeopardy would be a pretty selfish decision. "I want to play where I WANT TO PLAY and I DON'T WANT TO PLAY THERE." He would definitely lose some points in my book. If you go back to school, your shoe blows out again, you get hurt, then what? What if your stock drops? You could be the #1 pick in the draft. The money. The endorsements. Now. Don't worry about NO. Just play your game and dunk all over. It's not like NO is an awful place anyway. Who cares? He didn't hire an agent and didn't sign any endorsements. If he chooses to go back for a year because he doesn't want to play for a certain team, he's well within his right to do so. Push for a rule change instead. Make it where if a player declares for the draft, they can't take that decision back. Regardless if they say they won't play or sign, or go back to college, etc. and the team that drafts them owns their rights when they do decide to play. I personally don't think players should be able to have any power over who drafts them and have an out etc. Reminds me of when Kobe said he refused to sign with the Hornets if they drafted him and would play overseas. Same with some NFL players, granted that's a different sport. I don't agree with it, but don't really care since the rules are setup in a way that allows for it to happen. Which isn't really that common anyhow. Edited May 16, 2019 by Dont Taze Me Bro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Backing out now and going to Duke for another year would be a dick move. He doesn't come across that way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going Commando Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 He's not going to do it. It's just dumb speculation from some of ESPN's TV pundits. I don't like the way ESPN is using this kid to drive controversy and interest in their stupid programming. Rachel Nichols is gross. Brian Windhorst is gross. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Sinister Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 Windhorst is to James what Adam Schefter was to Shanghai Mike. Every time they open(ed) their mouth yiu know who is really talking 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bozo the kKklown Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 My favorite thing about Brian Windhorst is that he was apoplectic when Lebron went to Miami. Wrote an article about how he turned his back on Ohio and how he was personally hurt by it.... only to join ESPN as the Lebron follower in Miami. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Windhorst might be one of if not the luckiest people in America. Dude literally has a national television job because he went to HS with an eventual NBA superstar. Like, I don't even think they were friends in HS, they just happened to attend and/or overlap years. Crazy. It'd be like if I became a reporter on ESPN because I went to HS with Eddie Royal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a bit disappointing the blazers backcourt failed to deal with quick doubles. Just pass early, find the open guy, or move to get it back. They’ve dribbled into it instead, and ended up stuck against the sideline over and over again. That defense shouldn’t have worked so many consecutive times in the nba conference finals. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
