I was watching some 2015 highlights this morning passing the hours til tip-off. Man alive that was a fun season. A bit of a roller coaster in the middle with a shining moment happy ending! It got me thinking......which do I like to watch more.

Justice in 2015 when he would get a steal or rebound and take it end to end for a finish. It was like he had the power of a Mack truck with the stealth of a big cat picking his way thru traffic, slashing and finishing at the rim.

OR

Zion with a steal and breakaway. So powerful combined with "what's he gonna do this time?"

I can't decide. What do you think?

Good thread. Zion 1000 times out of 1000.

How about which would you rather have on this team; Tre’s defense or Tyus’ offense?

Okay, new rule.....before you vote go back and watch some 2015 highlights. It skews the vote since we all have Zion on the brain.

I blame ESPN. :D

And I would go Tyus with the ball.

Zion is ridiculous. Nothing ever like him before and he keeps you guessing what’s gonna happen next. I have Duke hating friends who just go crazy about him. But Winslow was incredible. He was almost sneaky how athletic and skilled he was. Like when he jumped over the dude from standford as he was blocking his shot... just stupid lol

And what he’s doing in the nba is a testimony to all that. Running the point for the heat and keeping them in the playoff picture.

Justise's ability to initiate the fast break was huge for our win against Virginia that season. He was one of my favorite players in recent memory, but I've got to go with Zion's steal and breakaway. Zion in the open court is not something special just in terms of Duke basketball, but sports in general.

There is nothing better than Zion in the open floor, literally nothing.

However, I don't ever remember Justise missing an open dunk, can't be said for Zanos.
Zion's missed dunks are the cause of every traffic jam ever.

After the Zion putback game winner over the whole Carolina team tonight. I’d like to change my answer to Zion please.

Justise on the fast break was amazing. I’m not gonna say it was Zion good but that eurostep he would do was nasty

How can Zion outrun everyone on the break....he has a gear that few have when he sees the rim and no one in between him....

He gone!
