Zach Randolph is a talent upgrade for the Cavs, yes, but he just doesn't fit with what we are trying to do. We already went through the Drew Gooden experience and it was incredibly frustrating. Randolph is just a more skilled, less athletic version of Drew Gooden who is paid twice as much.

At least Gooden was a good lockerroom guy. He tried hard, he just isn't a good defensive player.

NYKH20= Allan Houston and I'm not a Giants fan guy.

This is a warning for both trolling and namecalling. We'll put those towards your next suspension.


Jets fan? LOL, a knicks and jets fan, no wonder he is so pissed. You deserve the crap teams you currently have, and I would much rather be called whatever you called me than be called a knicks fan.

Let's not start that up again. He's already been suspended.

Not as ridiculous as being a Browns fan.

A great idea for the Cavs would be Snow+Smith+Jones and maybe a pick for Randolph. Randolph's value is down since he can't coexist with Curry, but he's a player, and the Cavs get a real low post scorer for nothing of value.

You guys are just being greedy demanding the #6 pick as well; Randolph is the next in the line of Rasheed Wallace and Pau Gasol as very good big men whose perceived value is down and are going to get traded for DIRT CHEAP. And you guys want to get a lottery pick AND a 20/10 guy for nothing in return. Remember, Isiah's not in charge any more.

Do this trade, and save Wally and some other stuff to trade for Redd, and you could have the best offensive lineup in the league with West/Redd/LeBron/Randolph/Z with Varejao and Wallace for defense off the bench.

Don't worry about the Knicks cap, I think the Nets are the only real threat for LeBron leaving, the Jay-Z thing scares me. But why would he want to go to a Knicks team that is synonymous with failure?

Snow is retiring and wont be tradeable.

He's also supposed to be headed to Charlotte to be an assistant to Larry Brown.

Both Rasheed and Gasol were had for very little. And the point is, most people were not nearly as down on them as players as most are down on Randolph

Pssshhhh. Ya, we'll help get you out of salary hell. Take our expirings, we'll take your contract. Oh, and on your way out, grab our first round pick. NO CHANCE. Add the #6, and take out the #19. I don't want Randolph at all, and I know the Knicks would not accept.
