Wow, what do the girls look like if they have to give away free food? I wouldn't go there.

Yes, I am serious.

Iverson, Melo & Zach.

Yes theres only one ball but if they know
they can make the playoffs theyre going
to share. Nuggets will now have three guys
who can go off & score 35+ plus you toss
Zach in with Camby, you got two guys who
can grab a lot of rebounds.. .


LOL...that's exactly the kind of logic that Isiah Thomas used this summer and had all the Knicks fans chorteling about how Isiah had snookered kevin pritchard....

and 50 games later, most knick fans hate Zach and the knicks are doing everything they can to ship zach out...the same sentiment KP and nate had after close aquaintance with zach and his game.

3rd time's the charm I guess...the blazers were worse when zach was here and better after he left. The Knicks were better before zach arrived and absolutely suck with him. But that will all turn around because Iverson and Anthony are so selfless that when they give the ball to zach and he never gives it back, they won't care...HA!

the 'free food' might be a little suspect as well

Lol, and I laughed at the fact of Zach and Curry having trouble sharing the ball.

I know it's not a popular opinion, but I think Zach would be a great 6th man. I look at a guy like Trout whos just as much a chucker as Z-BO and we love him as a designated scorer off the bench. Zach's a much better rebounder and scorer, while Travis is a better defender (unless he's horribly out sized). I see this as a great deal for NY though as Curry-Lee-Kleiza-Smith-Crawford lineup could probably be a playoff team in the Leastern conference next year.

i don't think zach will be a good fit for the nuggets. he wants to be #1 or 2 and he would be #3 but far far away from melo and ai.

the nuggets would destroy their depth.

and it's funny, "zach plus another knick", it sounds like "throw whoever we have".

Who would eat food at a strip club? Something about that doesn't feel right. There are some things that don't go together and I can't imagine eating and enjoying naked women at the same time. That is just wrong. In the old days when I went to strip clubs, there was no food. What is the world coming to?

What are you talking about? The Acropolis was serving $2 t-bones back as long as I can remember.

I went to the Acropolis several times in the late 80's and early 90's. I never saw anyone eating. I know they served food because they had a kitchen and sometimes I could smell food but I never saw anyone eating. Maybe they had private eating booths where disgusting perverts could eat food in a strip bar. It wasn't something you saw people doing out in the open.

Oh, im not saying they would win a title with those three
but they would have a better chance with those three then
just with the two. Also I would not want any of them on my
team. As for the Knicks, theyre not like the Nuggets. Atleast
I cant see it. Its true tho that Zach is a hog, but with Melo and
Iverson I think even Zach would give up the ball if it ment that
they could do damage in the playoffs. But I know talent alone
doesnt win titles. If that were the case I think the Blazers would
of won one when Trader Bob was the GM & we had a ton of talent.

It would clearly be the Blazers' board version of "more cowbell!"

that may all be true. I think we just have an honest disagreement on what virtues zach actually brings to a team.

My point was twofold however: besides zach's 'impact' on denver, there was the reported 'fact' that both Kleiza and Najera were being traded. And every time I see the nuggets, those two players are integral to Denver winning, and they bring hustle and energy into the game. I believe Denver would miss them enormously, and that zach would not be able to compensate for their loss. Especially if AI and Melo remained the focus of the offense...and they would.

I'd be doing myself a disservice here if I didn't step forward and demand some credit. If anyone here is going to get gold plated diapers, I get mine first.
