How would Randolph look in purple and black
Think of it, Zach Randolph would be great with SACtown, he dominates offensively around the rim, he hits the mid-range jumper, has a passion for the game, bring the guy to Sacramento!

who do you suggest the Kings trade FOR Randolph?
he has a fairly hefty contract (albeit, byc for a while..but the kings aren't sniffing the cap anytime soon) and I really doubt there's anyone that the Blazers would want (that the Kings would give).

Re: How would Randolph look in purple and black
bad contract, bad attitude, not a character guy, plays no D, not much of an upgrade over SAR
actually considering contracts, hes not an upgrade over SAR

with SAR we get more bang for our buck, Randolph has franchise player salary and the only place he can lead a franchise is to the lottery
hes a bad character guy, plays no D,
id rather pay $5 mill for SAR's 16-8 then $14 mill for Randolph's crappy attitude and his 19-9

Not arguing over the salaries. Its obvious which player is the better deal. SAR plays weak D as well though, not sure why your forgeting that.

im just saying that we would be better of with SAR becaue we would have to match salaries and he is a very minimal upgrade and Id rather have Reef anyways, Randolph's attitude is horrible and so is salary
he is also one of the worst passers even for big man standards
so Randolph would look DISGUSTING in purple and black

Re: How would Randolph look in purple and black
Randolph is about as athletic as Vlade. The last thing Sac is looking for is another unathletic player. Right now sacramento doesn't have many players who play "above" the rim

I know plenty of old timers and HOFer's that claimed defense in the late 90's and early 2000's weren't as good as the 80's. Wilt once said he'd average 70 ppg in the modern-day NBA because defenses were so much worse. Pippen once said KG was a stats guy who disappears down the stretch of games. Bill Walton once said Rasho was a better interior defender than Tim Duncan because Tim Duncan was on the bench at the time. Barkley once said Argentina was located north of the Indian ocean.

Dear...god...NO!!!!!!!
The only passion that guy has is for himself.
Bring him to Sacramento and watch the rest of your season go down the drain.

actually, zachs "attitude" is more media creation, than reality. Is he a great attitude player? nope, but most of the players in the NBA aren't, it's just they have better "pr" guys.
as for the only place Zach can lead a team to is the lottery, where exactly has Shareef lead teams to? If you're going to make such a (wrong) blanket statement about Zach, a response about Shareef is to be expected.

How much money does Shareef make as opposed to Randolph? Hint: One more than doubles the other.
As for attitude...he wants his shots, plain and simple. If you get him his shots he won't be a problem, which isn't always a bad thing. He is a good scorer on most nights. I remember him complaining about not getting the ball enough, to which Van Exel responded something like...what the heck is he thinking, we go to him every time. He was also thrown out of a practice in late October for mouthing off to Nate. Granted, Nate is hard on him for not doing enough working out in the offseason and for coming in poorly conditioned. While not huge, those kinds of things do affect team chemistry.

again I stated that SAR is NOT better than Randolph
but
SAR makes role player $ while Randolph makes franchise player $ and there diffrence @ the court isnt that big
yea, the media must of created his attitude, him punching his teamate in the face, being involved in a shooting, flaming teamates, not showing up for practice..

I don't disagree with that, he is overpaid.

a lot of players get throw out of practice, and mouth off to coaches. If we were to go by a person whining about his contract, whining about his shots and being late to (and all together SKIPPING) practices as signs of a bad player, Clyde Drexler fits the bill.
