This is an insane thread. LOL.

As far as Coach K, he is a great coach. I do think his motion system is not really conducive to NBA players to be honest. Kentucky's dribble drive and kick, PnR and lastly isolation is more pro conducive.

But, K's a great coach. I think his team lost, as someone mentioned above, because they couldn't shoot the 3 well enough. That, and FT shooting kill you in NCAA play.

As far as Zion, I think he will score a lot at NBA level but I don't see the dominant player that others do. He isn't a dominant rebounder, defender or passer and isn't a big-time shooter.

He is a 6-foot-7 athletic freak, but I think he gets swallowed up a bit in the NBA halfcourt. Where does he play? Outside face up? In the post, I don't see him being able to overpower guys like Rudy Gobert. Heck, Tacko swallowed him.

He'd have to score 25 plus a game on monster efficiency. Can he defend on the perimeter? I don't know. I do find those advanced stats skeptical because he literally overpowers everyone at the college level.  He plays hard, so that's a start.
