Re: 17th Pick - Tyler Zeller
I like the pick here with Zeller. I understand some folks will still yelp and moan and kick things because he isn't X, Y, Z but the bottom line is this kid can play and be a solid player. A huge upside? Probably not but he'll hold his own and become a solid player who can start in the league.
I think we all are in home-run mode with the draft and when it happens we are sort of let down. I still for the life of me though don't understand why folks do not think Tristan Thompson can improve and become more than what he showed his rookie campaign. I mean, we were willing to give Kidd-Gilcrest the benefit of the doubt but not another hard working player? I think TT will be more than fine when it comes down to it. He doesn't need to be Karl Malone good but he can still be 16 and 10 good.
