Zeller needs a miracle in the off season.

Edit: Id consider giving him some HGH. Im only half joking.

I read this as "Zeller needs a moustache in the off season" and some how it seemed to make sense. I think a full, Magnum P.I. flavor savor would do more to instill some confidence in Zeller than a whole off season of weight lifting.

I think Zody's best moments so far have been the random WTF blocks he makes once every few games

If I put together a Cody highlight reel I'd just splice a bunch of clips of him running the floor together, set it in slow motion and put the Chariots of Fire song for the music.

To add insult to embarrassment, Zeller got blocked like that by Greg Monroe, who happens to average less than half a block per game (0.4 blocks per game)

Ironically a team called the Bobcats would draft a player completely incapable of landing on his feet while falling.

Cody reminds me so much of Hansbrough, I don't know why I didn't see that comparison earlier.

except Psycho T can knock someone on his ass. If Cody tried that, he'd be the one on his ass.

Cody is going to be a starter in this league, calling it now, I've actually been pretty impressed with him over the last month or so.

This draft is so bad that if he can be an athletic Hawes, I'd be extremely happy.

He's obviously nowhere near as NBA ready as I expected though.

It look like Zeller got a orgasm from this dunk. I'm sure it was a relief. Good stuff rookie

Heard David Griffin, CLE interim GM interviewed yesterday. When asked about Tyler Zeller's recent breakout, he basically said that Tyler - and his brother Cody - were too nice coming into the league. What had changed was Tyler got angry at not playing for extended time, and when he got back on the court was playing angry. He said at the trade line the guy teams were calling about was Tyler Zeller. The teams that wanted him, he said, were "the best teams in the league." Everyone agreed that there's a place in this league for a 7 footer who can run like a deer and make 17 foot shots. "You think?" he said.

Zeller needs rythm to succeed, he needs a fast pace, and the Bobcats are not really running, I dont like the fit with Big Al, and unles she really improves his outside shooting, he needs that also, he wont fit that role.
There is still hope that he end up as a 7'0 David Lee, if he works in the right direction.
