i thought about that earlier this season at the trade deadline when he was rumored to be on the block..

 

i came to the conclusion that Z-Bo, while very effective, is getting long in the tooth and would also clog the paint where both he and Al operate. And he darn well isn't worth the long term money that Fansided article throws out at him. And there's no way he is opting our of his current deal.

Personally I would pass.... Like him as a player but just dont think the fit is all that good. Hurts more on defense with 2 bigs that struggle with athletic 4's and would struggle in pick and roll defense. Would be another good scoring punch and great rebounder. Not to mention Z-bo brings intensity and a strong desire to win. 

 

Wouldn't be my first pick but if it happened I could get on board.

It seems like pure speculation, but I'd definitely give Z-Bo a ring if he gets cut.

 

I actually brought up a Z-Bo-Big Al possible front court four or five months ago.

 

I like Z-Bo because like McBob he can still stretch the floor and actually prefers to hang out around the 16-18 foot range, but signing Z-Bo would also allow Kemba to finally be the point guard. I like McBob but I think his talents would be much better suited on the second unit (that is if he opts-in).

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
