Zeller is okay. His defense is weak, but he makes up for it in other areas. He is serviceable. I question his work ethic. He's got no passion and reminds me of Jeff Green.

If Colton Iverson had Zeller's skills, he'd be on the team. That guy showed heart. I hope Danny isn't a cheapskate with Zizac, the logic being the team would lose a year of leverage NBA contract wise. Get him over here and hire McHale as Center Coach.

Trouble is he makes other guys look good that are playing against him

If Mickey would have had Zeller's stats from the Cleveland game, this website would be going crazy on how good he was...Zeller can play if given the chance...I hope his playing time doesn't stop when Olynyk comes back...

Zeller is capable on offense, he runs the floor well, solid in pick and roll, he can pop out to 15-17 ft, he understands where and how to set picks, and keep the ball rotation moving.

It's defense... he's soft, he's not a good rebounder for being 7 feet, opposing bigs that are not known for their offense have career nights against him. He doesn't box out well.

He's an ok backup center, at best.

I really like his skill level offensively.  He's quick and active with a very nice touch around the rim.  Wish he were tougher defensively.

Zeller is great injury insurance, but he kills our defense and rebounding at the C position, and kills our spacing as a 4.

His only value is on offense, where he's not consistent at all.

Destined trade chip in my opinion, but nice job showcasing him.

Way too soft of a guy to have backing up the greatness of AB/Smart/Crowder.  Would like to have one of either Horford or AJ in at all times to anchor the defense.  Then I see Crowder, Kelly, Brown, or even Jerebko eating up the rest of the PF minutes.

Mickey is obviously not ready and can't space the floor as much as the other guys either.
Philly:

Anderson Varejao    Tiago Splitter    Matt Bonner
David West    Kenyon Martin    Brad Miller
Andre Iguodala    Josh Childress    Marquis Daniels
Dwyane Wade    Leandro Barbosa
Kirk Hinrich    Toney Douglas   + the legendary Kevin McHale
