2012-13 College Basketball Running Cordial Discussion

Zeller gets dinged by Devil for not staying in school.

 

He gets dinged by NBA teams for staying two years.

 

He's heady. And scrappy. And smart. He's not like one of these guys that just relies on his athletic ability. He has fundamentals.

 

He just doesn't wow me at all. I don't see Top 10. I don't see a second round player, but I don't see a Top 10 player either.

He's not a great rebounder. He's not a great defender. And they don't look to him at the end of games. I think he's a lot of great white IU hype.

 

Good job caring about the future of your school's student as he contributes to your happiness by participating in an extra-curricular activity.

 

He'll be drafted high because NBA teams will think they can turn him into a headier, scrappier, more fundamentally sound Chris Bosh. Maybe they can.

 

NBA comparison: Christian Laettner meets Tom Gugliotta meets Rik Smits

 

With a pinch of Uwe Blab.

 

He reminds me a little bit of Bob Cousy. Perhaps Bob Cousy meets Steve Nash. Perhaps a little bit of Kevin McHale, too.

 

I was thinking Tyler Zeller, but I thought Tyler was a better college player. And, yes, I know Tyler played in college longer.

 

Ugh.

 

Any day Uwe Blab is referenced is a good day.
