The Zeller/Sullinger combo has played only 44 minutes together this season, but the numbers are staggering - 112.1 offensive rating; 89.4 defensive.

Give it a shot, Brad

i'm with you, at least zellar is long and can contest shots unlike KO, and he needs to play with Rondo more to get easy looks. Plus KO would be better off the bench to run the offense through and get more shots up.

Let KO come off the bench like McHale.

As important is Kelly could be focal point on offense when he comes in

The only problem with Zeller is that he is averaging 9.4 fouls per 48.  It is not all his fault though as the tallest and most gangly white guys always seems to get the most fouls called on them.  If it weren't for that he would probably only average 7 or 8 fouls.

I think we will see more of Zeller as the season progresses but it may take a trade or injury to really open things up for him.

I d like to see Sully , Zeller and green start with Rondo ......a few game s.

Zeller need s to play instead of Bass. ::)....

I think Zeller will progress , if Stevens would just leave him out there longer.  I don't care if Bass can score, he is not future of team and doesn't belong on the court.

Also KO needs to come off the Bench for Sully ...at least until he learns how to play defense and not make all those idiot fouls .

The TEAM needs to learn how to play around a REAL center ,  one day there will be one ......Bass is not a Center ...he is 6 6".   .....waste of playing time others should  be on the court.

Yeah, he might as well try. For what it's worth, the Zeller-Sully two man lineup is +22 in 44 minutes. The team can't be any worse defensively than we've seen thus far. Right?

Sully and Zeller works great and KO absolutely chews up [bad] NBA players.  During the summer workouts last year, he was a beast and against most benches he puts up points super quickly.  I would love to see that change and I think it would be best for all 3 players.  I worry about KO's psyche is the only thing.

Eh, it's not like we're trying to win games this year anyway.
At least a goldfish with a Lincoln Log on its back goin' across your floor to your sock drawer has a miraculous connotation to it.

How about we trade Olynyk for a center and start Sully next to that center?

Or we trade any grouping of bass, Bradley, Wallace, turner, draft pick(s) for a starting caliber center or shooting guard?

and while we are at it, let's trade olly for an all star center and a HOF sg. hey, if you want to fantasize do it right.

I'd prefer to trade Sullinger for a center. 

I think Kelly has a good shot at being a better player long-term, who will fit in really well with both Rondo and Stevens.

Also, I'm guessing that presently Sully could fetch a better player in return than Olynyk could,

I think Danny could have gotten Omer Asik for practically nothing.
Larry Bird was Greater than you think.
