I would LOVE to have Zo on this team. GREAT backup to Bynum, and it would be fun to see a Zo and Bynum frontcourt at times. I don't see Zo leaving Miami if he's in the league next year though.
I thought Pargo was goin to the Spurs? On espn.com's insider rumor section it says that the Spurs offered Pargo a deal...
both would be great additions......the lakers could use a tough/wise vet like Zo on the court and in the locker room....Pargo is also a decent backup.......
Sign Zo, forget about Pargo. We have DFish starting, and Farmar already as a legit backup. Also, we should probably look to develop Sun's skill. We don't want a clutter at PG.

One of my pops' friends met him too, and said he was pretty rude. I'm sure various athletes are like that but I'm just saying... :[
I read Alonzo doesn't want to play until next February while he continues to rehab and "explore his options." I'm not sure how much Zo has left in the tank at this point in his career and if he's willing to play spot minutes off the bench. He would have been nice to have against the Celtics last year in the Finals, but with Bynum back and a healthy Mihm, there isn't much need for Zo.
Shape, do you feel comfortable with Chris Mihm playing next season? He looked like crap last year in the limited amount of minutes he received. Not sure what to expect out of him next season, but apparently he's the healthiest he's been in a long while. Gotta stay optimistic IMO. If he can get back to the pre-injury Chris Mihm form, then we got ourselves a very good backup center for Bynum
Mihm did look terrible in the limited minutes he played last season, but it's hard to expect much after Mihm missing two seasons and not playing any basketball. Basketball is a game of timing and rhythm and I expect Mihm to work himself back into regaining the backup center role. The positives heading into next season for Mihm: 1. He's finally healthy 2. Low expectations takes pressure off him 3. He'll be playing with a solid, more experienced bench 4. Contract season
The last time he was "healthy", he still missed 23 games and this was back in the 2005-2006 season. I expect nothing out of him.
