He has not officially retired, and my guess is he won't until after the trade deadline...

I can't imagine Riley intentionally tanking it at this point, but I would like them to...

If we make the playoffs it will screw the franchise. You just have to be realistic at this point.

We're not tanking on purpose. This is a legit tank job!

I love Zo, but I find it ironic that he was the one who announced Gary Payton's retirement without poor Gary knowing about it now he is "unretiring" :)

It's funny that Zo could be talking unnecessarily and screwing with our cap plans again (see Zo and Juwan in 97 or whenever that was). Stop prematurely announcing stuff Zo. We love you but STFU!!!!

Yeah, take a page out of TimBug's book; retire peacefully.
