He wants to justify his investment by devaluing the other products in his head. He's convincing himself more than anyone else.
It's not like he's wrong. Zeller's a goofy white guy who'll have an Eric Montross-type career. BTW, Cleveland gave up WAYYYY too much to get up and take his rights.
i am surprised he fell that far though, it's just hard to get a true 7 footer who seems fairly athletic and skilled.
I honestly wish the Rockets would have been Cleveland's trade partner, instead of Dallas. Our #16 for Cleveland's #24, #33, #34? If the Mavs and Cavs didn't take White at #16 and #17, we could have done this: #18: Royce White #24: Perry Jones III #33: Quincy Miller? #34: Will Barton? Much better than Terrence Ross.
Do you mean Terrence Jones? and if im not mistaking wasnt T. Jones rated high last year as a top 10 pick?
Oops, good catch. I meant Jones. And was he? I mean, if he was still of that caliber, Teams wouldn't have passed on him 17 times, right? Again, if we made the deal instead of Dallas, I think the combo of PJ3, Barton and Miller would have been better than a Jones pick. Plus, Miller and Barton wouldn't even have guaranteed contracts.
