Haters gonna ignore this post

Name the camps he dominated at? Go ahead, since I've been in the camps he played. He does his thing, but dominated? Nope. Collin Sexton led the EYBL in scoring, and broke Allonzo Trier record, and you still can't say he dominated. Michael Porter Jr and Trae Young won the Peach Jam, but didn't dominate. You know who I think was the last player I've seen who dominated? Dennis Smith. Seniors, Juniors, college freshmen, he was destroying everybody.

Zion is elite and is clearly a consensus top 2 player, but Bagley been the #1 prospect since the 7th grade. Enough said.

Yeah, T aka M. But he's not who I'm talking about. He co-runs the joint with my homeboy. I went to college with both of them, but I'm closer with the other dude. Both are good peoples.

Yeah your story is 100% legit since it's the same program. I know who your guy is too. He's more behind the scenes, but he deserves as much credit as T. I remember the UA Elite 24 with Diallo, they almost didn't let him get in smh.

Don't know if Zion is playing for Garner Road this summer, but he will be the #1 sought after prospect for AAU. Please believe, he's most likely in a bidding war right now. Whatever circuit and team he chooses, his games will be jam packed, standing room only with Coach Cal and K court side like vultures.

I gotta see Zion do more than be big and dunk though. Lebron was threading sick passes, making a lot of threes, beating national powerhouses...what has Zion done so far?


The game that told me Lebron was the surest thing ever was the one against national #1 Oak Hill Academy. Taking his group of hometown friends he grew up with against a freaking national juggernaut that had D1 prospects coming off the bench, and he single-handedly destroyed them. 31-13-6 in a 65-45 blowout win.

The Westchester game was sick too...another juggernaut that pulls recruits from all over, #7 in the nation. and Lebron hangs 52 on their ass, 21-34 from the field and 6-9 from three. St. Mary's wins 78-52....so Lebron was out there pacing Westchester's entire team himself.



James Is Too Much for Westchester




I remember one guy saying, "People are exaggerating his passing skills - he isn't doing anything that any college forward can't do."

Then ends up playing point in the NBA like he belongs there as a freaking 18-year-old and becoming one of the greatest passers in NBA history. :mjlol:

Lol reading that story and Trevor ariza was on Westchesters team

The thing with Bagley is he is old as hell. Same age as Jayson Tatum despite being 2 classes behind. Still #1 lock.

Zion really needs to develop some passing ability or a shot for me to be fully sold on him.

Both Zion and Marvin have ways to go skill wise, which is natural cause they're so young. But give me the 6'11 kid. I just love the effort Bagley plays with. Just need that handle and jumble to get better

Google has him a full year younger than Jayson
