    I still think KP got good value back from Memphis for him trading Zach to them.

    What a stupid fucking thread.

    I actually feel happy for Z-Bo. He seems to have turned it around and seems like a good leader of that team.

    Only took 6 years for Z-Bo to come around. Good on him for getting his act together.

    Yes. We have had a serious problem with interior scoring in the paint and offensive reboards.

    Zach leads his team to the 2nd round.

    But I guess moral victories are fine.

    If I remember correctly it was Brandon Roy who pushed for the Z-bo trade.

    KP. He fucked up bad with the ZBO trade though. I like the guy and all, but that shit was out of left field to "get rid of the jailblazer era".

    This ZBO is still on the ZBO contract from PDX.

    This couldn't be farther from the truth. I don't think you've been watching Zach as of late.

    Should have kept Z-Bo around for parts.

    Please, I said these things over the past few years. Look at the archives. I said he could learn to pass out to people. I said his defense wasn't as bad as people claimed it was. I said the JAILBLAZER items were overrated.

    This is just vindication for the past few years of ridicule for me opposing the ZBO trade and saying we really didn't get shit back. Otherwise we would be in the 2nd round.

    Agree with you EL...

    Love Zbo

    We have a tendency of trading away Allstar PF's

    Zach is so much less of a jive these days its remarkable. I wonder who took him under their wing and told him that he didn't need to be so hood all the time?

    You use that so often, you should go to the rubber stamp company and have one made.

    I strongly defended Zach then and ever since. He was a victim of the Oregonian because he doesn't speak the King's English. Actually, the paper liked him while Sheed was here, in comparison to Sheed. After Sheed and Bonzi went, he was next on their list in degree of ghetto accent.

    In case you failed to notice, we were plenty strong at PF. Having Z-Bo against Dallas wasn't going to improve our outside shooting to bust the zone.
