no it isn't. We aren't the G-League Trailblazers are the shitty Hornets. There's no reason for him to get minutes with a legit team. The only reason he got minutes in Miami is b/c they literally had no one that could play the 4 or 5 after Bam, so they were forced to use Zeller, Love and then insert a 6'5" Struss at the 4.

You know what would have been better than Cody Zeller playing 10-12 minutes a night?
Oscar Tshiebwe playing 10-12 minutes a night in whatever crazy scenario you think Cody Zeller might be playing in.

You know why?
b/c there is literally no value whatsoever in Cody Zeller on this team, and he sucks. I will say that he is someone who i know will work hard when he does play, so i give him credit for that, but he's just not a good basketball player.
Tshiebwe was undrafted. He might suck too. But you know what. Maybe he doesn't suck, and maybe he actually has some value to us in the future. That value actually coming to fruition may be a low probability, but the probability of Zeller providing value is 0%.


what's more concerning about this team other than the lack of shooting, is the fact that Cody Zeller is our 4th big after Zion/JV/Nance, and a 2nd round pick that hasn't played an NBA minute is our 5th big.

I think his only value is to assist others in learning Borrego's offense. He is a solid screen setter and Borrego thinks highly of him.. However, I would have preferred someone who had some other use than helping the coaches.

Zion/ Liddell/ (Trey/ Herb/) / Nance
Val/ Nance/ Zeller/ Robbins

Don’t sleep on Robbins. We still have 1 open roster spot and 1 open 2way. I wouldn’t be surprised if Robbins gets that roster spot and I hope Landers Nolley gets the 2way.

We don’t need to spend assets/ cap space filling in temporary center solutions. We need to do what every other NBA team does and start developing rookie centers.
