OT: Where Will Zach Get Traded
Now that Mike D'Antoni has accepted the Knicks' offer to be their head coach, where do you think Zach will get traded to.
Up-tempo and Zbo don't exactly go together.

Re: Where Will Zach Get Traded
It's probably not a matter of the Knicks wanting to trade him, it's the simple fact that his huge contract and "team killer" label are going to make him very unattractive to other teams -- my guess is that they have to keep him for the short term.

Re: Where Will Zach Get Traded
Who cares. He is gone and I am glad, and as long as he doesn't come back here, that is all I care about.

Re: Where Will Zach Get Traded
If they just want him gone I could see him going to Milwaukee for Bobby Simmons, Dan Gadzuric, and possibly Charlie Bell. They're taking back bad contracts but they don't have to have Zach around.

Re: Where Will Zach Get Traded
I am pretty sure Zach is staying put, but you never know. I would not be surprised to see the Lakers make a push for Zbo. He would actually be a very good player in the triangle, and since he would be a 3rd option he would be great.

I see you don't agree. Bynum is going to need surgery, and will probably be out until January. Zach is best when the offense does not need to run through him.

Doesn't the triangle require the post player to pass?

Re: Where Will Zach Get Traded
As far as the Lakers, They have Odom and Gasol which is enough to hold the fort down till bynum is back. I don't see this at all.
As far as Zach being traded, I am sure that he will be shopped, but I think they will opt to trade Curry instead. Curry has about the same value as Zach from a player standpoint, but has a much more manageable contract. Then, at the end of the following season, Zach will only have 2 seasons left and he will his contract will be more tradable. Also, I don't think that Zach will be that bad with D'Antoni. D'Antoni did not run many plays for Amare and I think it will be similar with Zach, and Zach will go back to being more of a garbage man. Just like he was in Portland prior to getting his contract. When he is a garbage man, he has to run more to get his points.

Gasol is the passer, Zach would be the saftey valve.
