So it's Zeller's fault Lowry torched the Celts for 32 huh? Weird that Brad had the center covering the opposing point guard.


Look, the Celts are lacking their best perimeter defender right now and that magnifies their lack of an interior.

Zeller is part of that issue but he was never meant to be a back line bruiser. Blaming him for all of these issues overlooks the interconnected nature of how this team succeeds when things are going well.

If you're replying to me, then I pointed out he's not the reason the Celtics have gone on this losing streak. Rather, it's just unfortunate that we have one of the worst players in the league actively in our rotation.

If there are people who would like to retain him, for whatever reason, I guess the good news that he will be very, very cheap.

Zeller's a long way off from one of the worst players in the league.

Fair enough, I guess we'll just settle for one of the worst players in a Playoff team's rotation. There are 24 players who have logged at least 500 minutes with a BPM below -4.0. Zeller is one of 4 whom have played all those minutes with the same Playoff team.

At least Jonas will apparently be back soon.

^this

he has regressed this year, but he can still play the PnR very effectively.
