I realize that. But Z's contract is still a max contract... and that is a good thing for a guy of his durability?

I was wrong about trading Z for Jamison...that was a bad idea...because i didnt know quite how much he was making

but my overall reasoning for trading Z (to build onto your young core) was completely correct. I got reamed for my idea of trading Z.

Now I'd bet youd trade him for Greg Ostertag. Anything so you have the money to match on Carlos Boozer. Otherwise you just lost your 2nd best player and future all-star. Nice.

Cleveland Browns

I would rather have Z on the team right now..over some liar..with NO integrity.

Lurch

Drew Gooden, Calvin Cato, and a first round pick for Z? What do you think?

this is business


Boozer's statements (he will stay) was based on what his market value was.


It went way up..nobody would turn that offer down.

Trade Z Match Booz

sign and trade for Stevenson and send Cato for Z?

Cleveland Browns

for Z i think we would trade him to the west for one thing..mabye to dallas for a josh howard, pavel and #1 pick package..or something like that.

numbers dont match bud


you guys wouldnt even talk Z trades a month ago...

The OUTLAW

Z has always been someone that could be had. I just don't like any of the deals that people seem to want to give us. In which case we were better off keeping him until next year when his contract was up. I hope that the Cavs don't match Boozer however. He has gone from being grossly underpaid to being grossly overpaid and I think that will come back to haunt us if we matched.

I think atlanta could have him for a 2nd round pick

you had better options before all this happened.
now you need to unload him and not take on any salary
Boozer is a future all star for many years.

Which is why I was right all along. Z had value. He was on a young team with an expiring contract next year. He needed to be unloaded.
