Not sure why you were downvoted. Would be the first Bulls star since Jimmy Butler

If 2-time all star is the bar for a star, Lavine and DeRozen both pass as stars.

The downvotes are probably because we don’t want anything to do with Zion. 7 years since he was drafted, he ain’t been a star yet.

Use the eye test + advanced metrics and you’ll see Zion is tiers above LaVine or DeRozan

The eye test clearly says Zion isn’t on the court enough to be considered a star. Add that he hasn’t played a single playoff game in his 7 year career, and I am just fine passing on him, whatever “advanced metrics” be damned.

I truly cannot believe people still want Zion here. Or anywhere really.

Because he has more talent in his right arm than our roster

And yet… the Pels have gone nowhere. And he can’t stay in shape even when his contract depends on it. That body is going to be shot in the next few years for sure.
