did i say he was a race horse? but comparing Ewing in his prime to Zydrunas Ilgauskas is way over the top dude...go watch some old games & see how much of an athlete Ewing was in his hey day...i'm not comparing him to Amare Stoudamire, but he's no Z, trust me.
I dont think Z can play with Marbury. I dont even think Ewing would have been able to play with Marbury. This is a guard oriented team. So I doubt with Crawford and Marbury that Z will get the amount of touches he did in Cleveland.

dude its a guard oriented team because there is no inside presense! Marbury looks to dish more than shoot these days. He could really use a guy like Z. Crawford is a 6th man so he won't even be on the floor with Z

wow, big z sure is.........tall. that's pretty much all he brings to the table. he can't block shots, he's slow as molasses, and plays w/0 intensity. not saying he sucks, just does'nt fit the knicks. he'd fit in well w/ a team like the spurs. parker could pretty much just get out his lazy boy, put it at mid-court, and play the inside/outside game w/duncan and z. and both have money azz outside shots.
sorry, got a little sidetracked. anyway, we need more of a high energy shotblocker w/some postmoves. let's keep our fingers crossed.
You need to order cable and watch basketball more often. you have obviously never seen him play. He does block shots, and he does intimidate, when we played them he kept Steph out of the paint and that aint easy to do. He's 7-3 its hard to shoot over him and Steph makes a living doing that. He is slow, but most 7 foot guys are. Speed is the last thing I ask for from a center. Was Pat fast?
i've watched a game or two in my day, and if i remember correctly at least one of them was a cavs game. ofcourse he kept steph out of the paint, z was guarding who? kt? pretty easy to come over and help if your guarding him. not to say that z's all that bad and that he sucks, i just don't want him in a knicks uni. we need someone who will play like a knick and represent. not a 30something overpayed (but he's a 7footer) cat that can't even compare his pubes to pat. so lord knows why you made that comparison.
by the way, how much do you think z will be asking next year, and are you willing to pay it? i thought we were looking to get younger and faster not older and slower.

i understand what you tryna say but aint really much out there in the center position. he's the best available, so why not take him. its a huge upgrade

exactly people act like we have a list of great Centers to choose from. Why don't we go after Shaq, Duncan, Yao, instead? Z is right behind those guys along with Brad
