What he did in the Toronto situation was less than admirable. If he didn't want to play for those teams, he could have offered just to be let out of his contract. Everyone respect Derek Fisher for taking a paycut so that he could take care of his daughter. Zo did the exact opposite and should expect the opposite reaction.

Still, he's one of the best players I've had the pleasure of watching. He definitely gave his all on the court. So thanks for the memories!

Zo was a great player, and is a great guy. I find it funny that there are still people bent out of shape over the Toronto situation. As others said, Toronto knew he was not going to play for them when they made the trade. They didn't want him to; they just wanted his expiring contract. Get over it.

Fine you don't want to play for Toronto or New Jersey, than The Contract is gone, and then you can go find another team.

If I was Toronto, i would have let him sit on the bench for the entire contract.

As far as I am concerned Zo is a self centred, THIEF.

Hes pathetic... Thats all there is to it.

Agreed.
