    The great thing about that reel is that he really only had that one set-shot from the mid-range, and the rest of his buckets came in the post. The one move he put on Leonard at 0:36 was a veteran move in a rookie game. Even all of the put-backs he had, granted against a lower level of competition, show that he's got good awareness around the rim for a Euro 7'0"er. Zeller does things like that, and people go crazy calling him the best prospect in the draft.

    I was also digging his confidence. In most of his Vegas League interviews, he was eluding to the fact that he was better than the level of competition, and then you have this -

    He's definitely got confidence in his abilities...

    Yeah, the ball fake on Leonard was awesome. I remember watching that at the time and thinking this kid is going to be good. I really don't understand why he isn't getting playing time.

    Do you really think there's a possibility that replacing Festus Ezeli and Andris Biedrins with Bogut could be a negative?

    Speaking of Ezeli, if you are looking for another average Center than he could be a target. He went from Starting at the 5 spot to DNP Coach's Decision

    I didn't see the game but Bogut's line looks pretty good, 12pts, 6-8 from the field, 8rebs, 4blks, 2ast, 1stl all in 24mins. I think OKC and SA are 1 and 2 in the west, but GSW could be right there with LAC with a healthy Bogut.

    If you caught the game what are your impressions?

    I know... He is on my fantasy team too.....arghh.

    With that out of the way, he has a great game and deserves to play it and to stay healthy for a long time. I hope this ankle thing will stop dogging him. I really don't want to see his ankles become a career killer like Roy's knees.

    Wouldn't it be ironic if one of the Western All-Stars was injured but they couldn't name Curry an alternative because of his ankle injury?

    On that note, does anyone know when they name the replacement for Rajon Rondo?
