Right. But it absolutely won't happen.
Surprised people aren't talking about him more...he was struggling some earlier this year, but in January he's back to averaging 20+ points and 10+ boards per 40 on 70% true shooting, and he hasn't turned it over once.

He looks faster too. That was my number one issue. Looks like he can be a modern center. Passing is good.
I've been saying it is crazy to leave a scorer like him glued to the bench

This organization is totally unprepared and unwilling to invest in Zizic, which is so frustrating because he was clearly the most talented scorer on the team since the beginning of the year.
Larry Drew is a plague on the franchise.

Love and TT just need new homes. We knew that last summer.

Not playing our sophomore big man makes no sense. We are looking for glimmers of hope here.
Ante is like an Unusually efficient scorer. Has some defensive upside perhaps.

There’s absolutely no reason not to give him extended minutes, we are the one of the worst teams in nba history. If the FO has him in our future plans: play him so he can get better. If they have no interest in keeping him: play him to get his trade value up. It’s just dumb af

What amazes me is the moment Love got hurt, that the front office didn't direct the coaching staff to develop Nance at PF and insert Zizic in to the rotation as the backup center. I think the majority of the people here knew that Nance's long term spot should be a PF, just to keep him healthy. Even if the plan is to keep TT and Love, Nance will have to play some significant minutes at PF if they want him to play more than 15-20 minutes a game.
Hopefully Zizic will keep playing well and the coaching staff won't be able to ignore using him when everyone is healthy.

Frustrating because Ante’s style of center is starting to come back in to the NBA landscape after having been minimized in recent years. A bunch of teams are playing big plodding centers with great post offense now, I mean the damn Lakers just played their Big Z an entire 4th quarter of a close game against a playoff team.

He is open so many times and getting ignored. I can't wait to see him paired with a good passing PG and a decent coach.
You know what I noticed? teams cheat and double our players either the roll man, cutter, or ball handler because none of our perimeter plays can make or just try to make the cross court pass. So teams are doubling down inside leaving players in the corner open without any repercussion. The only player that can make the cross court pass is Cedi, but he doesn't get any PnR action run for him anymore. Our team is a disaster and there are so many victims.
