Obvious thread is obvious. All good white players are overrated. Not all obviously but many.
 
Haha. ESPN analyst just said "I know Zeller's probably getting ripped now on fan messageboards and Twitter, but he doesn't care."

Maybe he's logged in on courtside.
 
I'd take him but not in a normal UConn year.

I gotta say - and I don't say this lightly, because a lot of dumb **** gets posted here - that might be the single dumbest thing I've ever read on this board.

Just so I understand you, you wouldn't - "in a normal UConn year" - take a consensus first team all-American, future Top 5 NBA draft pick, and legit contender for national player of the year?
 
16.6 ppg, 59% fg pct, 75% ft pct, 1.2 assists, 1.3 blcks, 1.1 stls, 1.8 t/o, 8.1 rebounds
17.6 ppg, 60% fg pct, 54% ft pct, 1 assist, 4.1 blks, 1 stl, 2.3 t/o, 11.5 rebounds

First one is Zeller (sophomore), second one is Okafor (junior). Obviously Okafor is the much better shot blocker and rebounder, but they are very similar offensive players. Pretty impressive for a sophomore.

I agree Zeller isn't a dominating college player, but he's still arguably the top big man in college basketball. I think its more of a comment on the state of college basketball. Big men don't stick around in college to develop - they go to the pros. Imagine if Drummond, Henson, and Leonard were still in college - Zeller would not be getting the hype he does.
