The REAL Reason Zeller Is Gone...

He hit that game winner against Utah two years ago, with Hayward on the opposing side.

Hayward never forgot about that LOL.

Smart move Ainge! Making us more attractive and increasing our chances!

That being said, I do hope the best for Amir and Zeller going forward. Even when they didn't get minutes and though they weren't elite players, they were great veterans who acted professionally and were a part of the team's growth the last 2-3 seasons. I wish them the best of luck going forward! 

(Although I have heard some rumblings that a Zeller-Celtics reunion is not out of the question if he's willing to come back via an exception or something).

If I remember right Zeller we basically got for free from Cleveland in a deal that allowed Cleveland the space to get back LeBron. I can't remember the details but it is funny now because I remember Tommy saying how he (Zeller) was the steal of the summer. How funny it is now. I hope Zeller signs somewhere but not here. He is a finesse player that moves pretty good for a big but it's not what we need.

Please take Jordan Mickey with you.

Zeller has pluses, like Olynyk has pluses. But both are soft defensively and aren't big rebounders. That was a Celtics weakness last year. Seems like they are making an effort to get tougher this year, though they aren't there yet. Zizic is too green to judge. Tatum is a rookie. Theis is almost an unknown.

They aren't through yet up front.
