Apparently people here are saying the Knicks are as bad as they are because of ZBo. So, what is the excuse for the Wolves doing worse than the Knicks? They don't have ZBo.

The Wolves don't have David Lee and Nate Robinson either.

Al Jefferson is the closest thing to Zach Randolph in this league, but he actually can block shots, though.

This doesnt make any sense.

Minn is rebuilding and have accepted that. Knicks are trying to win now.

That is a big difference.

If this post is directed at mine you coulnd't be more wrong like usual. I don't think anyone thinks our problems are a result of just Zach but he definetly helped sink the ship. We have basically the same team last year just adding Zach and we are far worse. Maybe the Wolves excuse is they are rebuilding and thus dont have many quality players, so its not rocket science that they wouldnt be good (Hint for Hutnik, there are other bad players in the league besides Zach)

How about a hint that a single player alone can't be the reason why a team sucks?

It's usually inept management why a team sucks and the same kind of management which brings these kind of players in to a team. A player can help kill a team no question about it. If Zach is still on the Blazers they are still an under .500 team. There are reasons why one prominent player on the Blazers (said to be Roy) told management to get rid of this guy or the team isn't going anywhere.

al jefferson will be a VALUEABLE and very very good player in the league one day.

minny also still does not have randy foye. that will make a difference.

minny is rebuilding the RIGHT way and will be a playoff team in 2-3 years. book it.

Well.. Portland won 33 games last year in the West. That was with ZBo. So if the Knicks don't win more than 33, then is it still ZBo?

How about it's ZBo, Curry, Marbury, Crawford, QRich and main man Isiah.

They dont have Randy Foye, who'd id take over any guard on this team, it's not even close for me.
