In any case, he needs to be traded. You need to sell high on the guy. Keeping him and risking yourself being unable to move his gigantic contract is a big risk.
sure... I have no beef with selling Zach high. How high are you talking? Knicks are terrible this year without him. He plays more minutes than any other frontcourt player on this team, we are 6-4 and he's a top 5 rebounder and a top 20 scorer. Hard to call those stats 'meaningless' no? If we were 1-7 ok, who cares.. but the Knicks (weak sched fair enough) are winning games. Hard to call the contributions of their most productive player meaningless.
Only knock on Zach's game right now is too many jumpers. He's playing like an all star right now.
I would love to trade him for an expiring contract and young upcomging player but someone GOOD, with all star waiting to happen. 20/12 frontcourt players dont grow on trees, bad contract or no
