Not that it matters but again PATFO doesn't add a wing...

[Darius Bieber]

Someone's gotta make the customary religious temple for "player" thread tbh

Also another scrub signing that won't bring much to the table

Good, now they can include him with Metu in that Embiid trade from the other thread.

Might be too much to give up for Embiid tbh

[TimDunkem]

Gross. We already have 2 white stiff centers, but whatever Spurs don't care about the restart anyway.

[ace3g]

If Zeller plays more minutes than Luka, Metu, or Eubanks...

[itzsoweezee]

Lol

Ewwbanks fucking sucks. He wishes he was Tyler Zeller.

[jeebus]

Pretending to give a fuck about Luke Zeller all those years finally pays off.

Is he related to Fuzzy Zeller?

Oh ok. My entire opinion has now changed. Thanks for enlightening me

[Chinook]

I don't really think the criticism makes sense anymore. The Spurs have drafted four SG-PF players in the last two drafts (not even counting Weatherspoon). It's weird to think with the number of 6-5 to 6-9 players on the team that they should have gone for another. I'd like them to find their PF of the future too, but in this context, getting an NBA-ready big to go with Poeltl feels justified.

[gambit1990]

nothing really matters anymore tbqh. like i said when spurs moved kawhi, they will be irrelevant for years to come...

Tyler Zeller's highest rebounding average in his career was 5.7 boards. He averaged 4.0 last season.

LaMarcus Adridge's lowest rebounding average in his career was 7.9. He averaged 8.0 last season.

Even if you go by Per36 numbers, Aldridge has the slight edge...oh, and he is actually good enough to play 36 minutes a game AND help carry an offense.

Try again.

How Kevin Love would look in a Spurs' uni.

I suspect he means more so "SF"/combo forward types. There's probably a good chance they draft one this year.

Without Aldridge, C was definitely the most pressing immediate need though. Still, expect the pu pu platter of Gay, Lyles and Eubanks to play backup C by committee (they don't seem inclined to give Metu a chance) and Zeller to be more so Motiejunas esque insurance in case of further injury.

Try again.

Average is largely irrelevant due to reliance on minutes. If you want an accurate depiction of rebounding prowess, look at % and on/off numbers. They're both underwhelming in the former, but Aldridge perennially rates well in the latter due to his diligent boxing out/strength.

[TimDunkem]

lol Photoshopping Tyler Zeller.

Why didn’t woke poop sign some strong man muscle brother who can mix it up and defend the rim?

stfu aldridge was a ball hog ball stopper sawft big zeller will absolutely out rebound anyone on the team given the minutes

[lmbebo]

Not sure why anyone cares.... He's the 12th man on a team going no where in a probably going to be cancelled summer league to get Lebron his ring...

[ElNono]

who?

[widowmaker]

Man i hope they don’t update 2k lol.

[spurspl]

they dont care about anything what could make this team stronger

You're not wrong.

Talk to me when Blair or Zeller make a single All-Star team.

Actually, talk to me when you can actually learn to use English without acting like a 2000s teeny-bopper.

[KobesAchilles]

I’m just here for the reaction when we sign Mason Plumlee next year while keeping Zeller and jettisoning off Poetl

[talkspurs]

If Zeller plays more minutes than Luka, Metu, or Eubanks...

I would rather these play 48 minuets then give him any minuets. If they were going to sign someone I would rather they sign Isaiah Hartenstein (https://www.rotoworld.com/basketball/nba/player/30469/isaiah-hartenstein).

[phxspurfan]

wtf, why lol... so random shit PATFO again

[rudwick]

Thoughts

They should have signed Tim Duncan.

[alpha_HaZE]

To be honest, I am not a huge fan of this deal, not that they were plenty choices, but I wouldn't be surprised if he plays decent.

[phxspurfan]

White privilege

Spurs officially the Jazz/Pacers/Celtics, signing random white dudes bc theyre white

[JPB]

With that nose, we know at least he can take elbows tbh.
