Zach Edey an NBA Failure?!

Gilbert Arenas ERUPTS Debating Zach Edey's NBA Potential. Zach Edey's chances of finding success in the NBA as the 7-footer out of Purdue is demolishing the NCAA Tournament while also facing criticism that his old-fashioned game won't translate to the league. Gil goes as far as to say that an NBA GM who picks him in the NBA Draft will lose their job.

Gil’s Arena premieres every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday at 11:30am PT / 2:30pm ET.

Needs to get with Brook Lopez. Dude did a complete 180 mid career and became a good three point shooter and defender and extended his career.

[Viqtor]

They gotta replay this clip on Gil's Arena LOL

[maurygoldblat]

Agent 0 doesn't like him???

DRAFT HIM IMMEDIATELY. FUTURE HOF

[jordmangaming]

I think gils point is he isn’t a lottery pick which idk why everyone is hating on I don’t disagree 😅

[coachcherry]

He doesn’t need to be a lottery pick or an NBA All-Star, but he can play in the NBA.

[natejohnson]

Yall…he’s saying the game isn’t made for the traditional big anymore….if he doesn’t have a reliable outside shot…he won’t be of any use….The two bigs he mentioned can shoot….and the taller, smaller build bigs like porzingas and wemby can put the ball on the floor 🤷🏾‍♂️…..hating and being realistic is two different things

[Est.]

He’s got Zubac written all over him. I think he’ll be solid.

[haddio]

The point has some merit, but you don't get fired for drafting 7'4", 300lbs, 25ppg, and 12.5 rpg. Get him a speed, footwork, and ball handling coach and let the chips fall.

[ccr]

Oh my Pistons will do it. They will f*ck up everything possible at all times.

[edwinhunnet]

When you work hard you unlock other moves. He’ll be a star no problems.

[hippienerd]

This same guy said Wemby, Jokic, and all the players pre 2010 sucked too.. I'm sure Edey will be fine Gil doesn't know shit

[MegaMonomer]

Having a player who can matchup with the two best players is a bad thing? People thought Embid and Jokic were too big and slow as well.

[allyal]

All he has to do is learn to shoot mid range n 3 also defend from 3 to the basket n get even better at passing from the post. It’s not impossible.
The thing is, who can stop him? 7’4 280lbs of monster… He lost the Chip but out played Clingan, who destroyed everybody else in college. The reason Eddy lost is Bcz of the other 4 guys got outplayed by UConn other 4 guys…

[RonFly]

40 pts 20 reb TWICE this NCAA Tourney . Gil you do that? Putz

[raybaby]

Well if he comes in and dominates mid and the paint and average 25 12 6 he will make it hard for them to guard him

[GraceNDaPlace]

Trust me the big man game will return..
Trust me!!

[Tuskegeeflyboi]

He played how his coach asked him to, he will have to do the same in The NBA

Look Jordan didn't play the way he did in college compared to The NBA

Not comparing this kid to Jordan but my point is sometimes guys are restricted in college

[charlesbetts]

Stop the hate. Bro when Shaq came in it wasn't played the way he played. He forced teams to change. Big Purdue boy could do the same.

[LouieOcean.]

He’ll say Eddy is trash but Bronny belongs in the NBA. Make it make sense!!!

[iBEEnHEREtoo]

I watched the the NCAA tourney this year like " damn, Wemby would be killing here"
