Still, I get the OP's point. Every sissy boxout, every boneheaded pass, every blown tip-in will reaaaally begin to grate with Wyc. I'd like to see Zeller get coached by Wyc personally at all timeouts. The team huddle around Brad, Zeller sits next to Wyc.
He's really not that bad..
For his career Zeller has averaged 14 points and 9 rebounds Per 36 Minutes.
He's shot:
* 50% from the field
* 78% from the line
* 63% inside three feet
* 41% from 10-16 feet
* 40% on long twos (> 16 feet)
He's had net rating of +3
Is he a future star in the making? Of course not. But he's a pretty young and very mobile 7 footer who can shoot the ball, can finish at the basket, and who can rebound at close to average levels for an NBA PF, and who is a good locker room guy with a team first attitude.
I know he's not the most exciting player int he world, but as a third string backup we could do a hell of a lot worse.
Hell, if Zeller was playing for the 76ers (rather then buried on the Celtics bench) he'd probably be averaging 15 and 9 - and everyone would be begging for us to trade for him lol
