Zeller vs Zeller

Cody, but he needs another year of college. He's way more athletic than Tyler; much higher upside. But Tyler is ready to contribute for an NBA team right now. He can come in and start for any team in need of a 5, from day 1. He should go anywhere between 8-16. I like him a lot.

 

JMAD21, love your tag. Bring Batum to Houston. Dude plays great defense (can defend 3-4 positions) and has a well rounded offensive game. My only concern with him is that sometimes he looks too passive, but i think his lack of playing time is contributing to that. Would love to see what he can do with 30-minutes on a routine basis. Will be interesting to see where the breaking point is with Portland in terms of matching an offer. Wallace and Odom are both free agents, so Portland should have some serious money to spend this offseason. What do you think Batum's contract should be worth, and how much are you willing to over-pay?

 

Cody seems to have a higher ceiling.

 

Tyler's slightly taller, but stiffer, less athletic, and injury prone. Cody needs to bulk up, but he has a polished mid-range game, hits at nearly 80% from FT, and is an active defender. Tyler's hook shot is a thing of beauty (the best in college hoops), but as mentioned, Cody's ceiling is much higher.

I think Cody sneaks into the top-10, whereas Tyler likely goes in the late-teens.

 

Totally agree, though I'm a bit biased. Tyler right now is a much better rebounder. They both have off the charts BBall IQ's. Cody is fantastic in transition, has very nice moves in the post but still learning to become a bigger target underneath.

Cody IMO will be better, still plenty of room for growth.
