Vonleh an run the floor better.

He is better at being 7 feet tall.

He also faster, quicker, and a more explosive leader than Vonleh.

He is better at logging minutes in games.

He is better at getting drafted higher.

Shall I go on?

 

yes please.. 

But  let's go off your impressive list.. 

1. Vonleh is just as good running the floor.. 

2. Doesn't use none of his explosiveness because he doesn't finish in traffic.. 

3. Okay good one.. Lol

4. Another excellent point.. 

Now my list... 

VONLEHS A shot blocker a better shooter a better post player a better ball handler and rebounder..

I would like to see both Vonleh and Zeller continue to improve so they can man the 4 and 5 spots.  You would have two big men that are able to run the floor, which would put a lot of stress on the opposing team's fast break defense.  Granted, it would also leave the Hornets without a guy that can stop a true low post presence, but those guys are becoming much more rare.

You asked what Zeller was better at. I could make a Vonleh list too.

Zeller has four issues IMO.

1. He needs to get stronger.

2. He is "Diaw" timid on offense. He had a midrange shot, but lacks confidence to take it.

3. He is uncoordinated in the post, which could also be due to getting pushed around.

4. He has a relatively small wingspan.

Defensively I love what he brings, and his elite athleticism causes fits for opposing bigs. He guards p/r very well. Offensively, he lacks a go to move or shot, like most of this team, but I really think a lot of it comes from a lack of confidence in his shot.

If he can consistently hit a midrange shot, better yet a 3...then he would be a weapon, because he does a lot of other things well. Time will tell I suppose.

I'm just glad we have him and Vonleh. Both can be solid big men for us, and I like the chances of Vonleh developing into something special.

My problem with zeller is that he's too prone to completely disappearing in a game. Too many times, he'll play 30+ minutes and have 4pts and 6 rebs. I don't think he has the balls to be aggressive or stop getting pushed around. He's too nice.

      Thielen was a "dawg" like Dan Morgan likes to say. And they replaced him with puppies.  The analytics are probably saying this is more targets for younger receivers they are hoping to develop, specifically the first round pick from 2025. The eye test is going to show a very inexperienced group of WRs that are going to have some serious growing pains, for a 3rd year QB who has not yet proven to be the guy going forward.  It's crazy how in the literal first game of his NFL career, Cam Newton showed everyone he was a star QB and there was never any doubt about that. It almost didn't even matter who was around him, although he definitely had a serious lack of talent at WR for most of his career. Bryce is going into his third season and there is still a ton of doubt, and who is around him is seen as crucial for him to have success. I don't like it.

      Everyone says AT was old and slow but the one thing he could do consistently was get separation. That takes skill and it's been a huge issue in our WR for years. And while Moore may be a great locker room guy and our WR coach may be a 12 year vet, he's not playing in the game. Vets like AT do what they do because they can see things others don't and exploit it. The DB interview I mentioned before was with Stephon Gilmore after his DPOY season. He was pulling the younger DBs aside showing them things you wouldn't even think you'd be able to tell from the way the receiver was standing.  Seeing what a DB or LB is biting on in game that can give you that half step advantage is huge and we don't have that experience in our WR group right now and I think it could end up hurting us. None of our receivers have lined up against NFL corners successfully on a regular basis. Having someone that can walk over and give you a tip to get a half yard separation can be a difference maker.

      We only fielded about 4 NFL calibre players on that unit last year.
