Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Re: If Zydrunas Ilgauskus signs with Miami........

Z fking sucks. Who cares if goes elsewhere. It's not like he is going to make anyone better.

If Zydrunas Ilgauskus signs with anyone else........

PIP will be dancing a jig all over this message board. :chuckles: I kid, I kid.

Many know I am a huge fan of Z and would like to see him back with the Wine and Gold. But at this point in his career, I would be happy for him no matter what he does. He has nothing left to give the Cavs - unless they ask him to.

Regardless, it is comforting to know that one day #11 will be swinging in the rafters at the Q, while #23 has now been exposed as an enemy of the state. True loyaly and heart will be Z's legacy.

Hey Westakron1, whats you Will Ferrell avatar from?

Z knows the same thing about Lequit that Gilbert does, why would he go anywhere near that pos. If Lequit doesn't tank, Z might have two rings by now.
 
Re: If Zydrunas Ilgauskus signs with Miami........

No, not Z. I hope he comes back in the Cavs front office when he retires. Actually, I would like to see him play in Boston or Orlando, two of my new favorite tams. (Damn, I can't believe I'm saying that.)
 
Re: If Zydrunas Ilgauskus signs with Miami........

At this point I think even Z has lost respect for #6....
He played everyone....
Except for his butt buddies Bosh and Wade...

All that being said Z is my generations 'Mr. Cavalier' It would not change how I felt about him if he left in pursuit of a ring... But it would hurt my heart a bit.....
 
Re: If Zydrunas Ilgauskus signs with Miami........

He should be ring chasing at this point in his career. Seriously. He didn't have to come back to Cleveland and he could have signed his huge contracts with other teams. He was pissed at the team last year for using him as a pawn, yet he still came back. It's impossible to be mad at the guy. He has been as loyal as a player possibly could, but even Karl Malone went ring chasing.
 
Re: If Zydrunas Ilgauskus signs with Miami........

The road to the Finals runs through Orlando.
Z was no match for Dwight Howard in the 09' ECF...and he hasn't gotten any younger plus Howard has amped up his game since then.
And will be even stronger in 11'.

This is one of the major problems Miami will face.
They need size and length...Bosh can't hang with the likes of Dwight Howard, Gasol, Bynum, etc.
 
Re: If Zydrunas Ilgauskus signs with Miami........

If he is the Heats starting center there is no way they beat the Magic. Unless SVG is as bad as a coach as I think he is.....

I hope he goes to the Lakers. Bynum is always hurt so he should be able to get some playtime.

Miami will crush Orlando. Dwight Howard has shown that he can't keep his temper in check and that he is very prone to get into foul trouble. Lebron, Bosh, and Wade will all attack the rim and Dwight will get into foul trouble in no time. They'll get all of the calls.

he can sign with the heat.

just as long as when nobody's lookin, he turns and kicks lebron square in the balls.

It doesn't sound like it. He's seriously considering going there. Plus Lebron has been his teammate longer than anyone on the Cavs has worked with him, and they are quite close. Remember it was Lebron who stood up for Z against Mike Brown during that whole debacle where he got benched.

""I definitely thought he should've played," James said Monday. "I'm not trying to stir up anything with coach or whatever is going on with the organization, but sometimes one game is the smaller things. What was on the line was something way bigger than us playing the Mavericks. That was Z breaking the record."

Lebron may not have had a lot of loyalty to the franchise, but he's always expressed an afinity for Z, and in fact if he's going to Miami it's most likely at Lebron's behest.
 
Re: If Zydrunas Ilgauskus signs with Miami........

I'd have no problem with it.

Ringchasing at the END of your career is perfectly acceptable. Z gave us everything he could and more. That guy NEVER quit on us. In fact, if they did win it all this year, Z getting a ring would actually at least give me one single positive feeling about it, although I'd actually prefer to see Z sign with the Lakers and win it all, myself.

Ringchasing at 25 is gutless and anybody who does it is a giant pussy.
 
Re: If Zydrunas Ilgauskus signs with Miami........

Yes, if he goes ring chasing it should be with a different org. Do not follow LeCock
