Zach Collins reminds me of...Bryn Forbes

[spursparker9]

They both train hard and work hard on defense. But still get scored on by whoever they are guarding :lol

I wish this forum was moderated just a little bit to get rid of these posts where people start a thread w every inane thought they have during games.
Put it in the game thread!

My bad bro, will put in game thread :toast

[GAustex]

Zollins tries hard
He just can’t

[Mr. Body]

The guy has been sick for the last week. He was supposed to be a scratch tonight.

[itzsoweezee]

Hell no. You people really don’t remember how bad fake hustle was

[Atl Spur]

Zach says hi!

[timtonymanu]

Nothing was worse than Forbes hitting 3 pointers in a row, doing his stupid celebration and then giving his points back on defense and then leaving his head down after getting torched.

[ismael-robert]

Eubanks putting Nurkic on bench. Dropped a couple on Zach

[Atl Spur]

Nothing to see here….. move along:)

[SayTown]

I've never seen Zach obsessively blow into his hands then lick his fingers and wipe the bottom of his sneakers.

[RC_Drunkford]

what an idiotic thread. Collins is actually skilled and has size, not like Bryn. The team defense looked great tonight. Y'all just too impatient

[EricB]

lol Zach Collins was a stud last night on both sodes
of the ball.

good god

[MI21]

I'm not the biggest fan of Zach Collins defense, but comparing him to Forbes is like comparing Wemby to Bol Bol.

Call it AggieHoopsFan syndrome…

[spursparker9]

I apologize for the thread. Zach Collins put up all round stats and knocked down 3 pointers. He is much better than Forbes. :toast

[SpursGenius]

He gives up position too quick. He has to learn how to push players outside the restricted area. If you stay in it you won’t get calls and also get scores in by nba players. Even the small guys score on him.

That's due to physical limitations and physics and there's not much he can do about that but try his best and he seems to do that while playing hard.

Nah, don’t apologize. It’s a great “hot take” thread. Kinda weird, goofy, completely out of context, totally off base. There’s everything you’d want in a hot take thread. A true work of art. I grade it A+.

[poopbox]

Bryn Forbes almost made me stop watching basketball period

[KobesAchilles]

Bryn Forbes almost made me stop watching basketball period
He gave me hope as a human being. I was like man if this shitty ass dude can make the league, anybody can. Maybe I gotta shot :lol I started running a few suicide drills to see if the ol engine still worked. Turns out, it’s broken

[Fizziksman]

He's awful but no lol

[TimDunkem]

Oof.

[Slippy]

Every opposition scouting report will be this.

Zack Collins has the green light. Leave him open force others to pass on the defensive end.

[objective]

Lol I was going to make a thread over the past break about how Zach Collins was the Bryn Forbes of centers

Players Pop was in love with for no good reason and refused to see their flaws

[Obstructed_View]

Zach Collins PER: 13.6
Jeff Ayres SAS PER: 12.1

[Obstructed_View]

Lol I was going to make a thread over the past break about how Zach Collins was the Bryn Forbes of centers
Except Collins shoots twice as many threes. :bang

[TheBallsbreakers]

How was Collins supposedly seen as having DPOY material back when he was drafted? He's a sieve defensively.

[spursparker9]

I think this is relevant again after recent games by Zach...

lol letting Embid dropped 70 pts

[offset formation]

How was Collins supposedly seen as having DPOY material back when he was drafted? He's a sieve defensively.

Add Keldon to the mix and it's like playing 5 on 3. Truly abhorrent defense.

[baseline bum]

Add Keldon to the mix and it's like playing 5 on 3. Truly abhorrent defense.

Then add Bran Ham

[mystargtr34]

Spurs already had the worst defensive player in the league in Doug McDermott, then they went out and drafted an even worse one in Branham. The spurs literally have the two worst defensive players in the entire league in their rotation.

[Mugen]

Nobody topping prime Bryn Forbes tbh. Pop had that mfer starting for 2 straight seasons over Derrick :lol

[LeBowen]

Bryn had that dog in him, mean mug and clapping every time he fucks up, making it look like it's not going to happen again...until it happens again the very next possession. :lmao


On a more serious note, as ridiculous as it sounds, current version of Collins is even worse simply because it's way worse for the team to have an awful defender at C than SG.

[slick'81]

Mills,bonner,del negro,collins etc the curse continues

[hater]

Man can we bring Fabricio Oberto back pls.

[rjv]

c'mon, man! zach's bad but not that level of bad.

[SouthernFryd]

Sochan and Champagnie...are multiple times worse than Zach.

Not saying Zach is good...he's just multiple times better than Sochan and Champagnie.

[RC_Drunkford]

you mean like when we had Bryn Forbes and Marco Belinelli? Is there a pattern here? :pop:
