Wreaks of a trade down.

I actually wouldn't mind Zeller for us. He might be the secret Cho is keeping.

They must be planning on trading down. That's the only logic I can make out of it

You wouldn't say that if like I you just rewatched Zeller getting owned by every big on Mich. St.

Zeller should be seriously considered by us if we can get a second pick.

He will be a model professional imo and has all the athleticism, fundamentals and iq to succeed.

He hustles like a mad man also which is rare for a "finesse" player.

Sounds like others need to get it together. They hired this man to construct a team so let him do his job.

Draft Zeller!

Good, maybe we can trade down 3-5 spots and grab an additional asset.

I'm surprised at the resistance part. Resistance from whom? MJ? Higgins? I thought MJ handed over the keys to Cho.

This sounds good.

Twolves fan:

I had mentioned before a couple of weeks ago how I thought it would be a good idea for the Bobcats to trade down with the Twolves at #9 to get Zeller.

But I think Zeller will not last to #9 anymore. His workouts have been too good, and his combine was excellent.

I think there is a real good shot you guys take Zeller at #4 and let him be your stretch 4. Cody will work great with Walker on the PnR....IMO.

GREENBK · Post #133 » by **GREENBK** » Wed Jun 26, 2013 3:52 pm

And I think that Cho like others things besides Zeller's game: Work Ethic, QI Basketball, Healthy etc.

I think it's been impossible for these GMs to ignore Zeller's workouts. He has been nailing down the 3 pointers and has been showing he is in great condition. When you have Porter, who has been so-so in his few workouts, and you have Bennett who has gain 18 lbs being injured, its just difficult to ignore Zeller's ability.

I think you guys are going to nab him at #4.

If you have a chance take a look at Zeller's Kings workout out video.

Sixer fan here, many have us taking Zeller at 11 but I don't see him getting to that point. He'd be a great fit in my opinion next to the defensive minded Biyombo in the front court. Of course drafting Zeller at 11 would create a slider in this draft.

Probably the scouts that watched Zeller get his shot blocked repeatedly, mishandle dribbles, and pin dunks against the rim like I did. :roll:

Seen it, unimpressed. Big difference between knocking down shots in an empty gym (Hell, I could do that) and doing it in games.

LamarMatic7 · Post #138 » by **LamarMatic7** » Wed Jun 26, 2013 7:35 pm

why the hell am I talking myself into this Zeller pick? no way I'd be okay with taking a white big any other year, imo. but this dude seems to be the type who'll fill out his potential. won't be anything special though.

Hopefully everybody, we could trade back and easily still land this guy and add more assets.

ZackB23 · Post #140 » by **ZackB23** » Thu Jun 27, 2013 3:32 am

If we could trade back with a team like Sacramento, Detroit, or Minnesota and get back some assets and still be able to draft Zeller, I'd love that! If he doesn't last till then, then so be it. There are plenty of prospects at that spot that could contribute.
