To be quiet frank, I'm warming up to the idea of Zo playing the 4 and backing up the 5. Why? Because his experience is invaluable to Eddie and Yao, and he can't play too many minutes. My hopes are that he'll form a great tandem with Yao, while passing on some experience to our big guys, and then when the offseason comes, he'll be in good enough shape to play big minutes and protect Yao. I trust Zo's workethic. I think he'll be in good shape when the season starts. He got clearance from doctors already, so he can already start working on his conditioning from now. But we still have the PG problem, and we can't strike a good deal with the Heat. There MUST be a 3rd team involved, OR it's an FA signing somehow.
Why would you want to be "quiet frank"? That's just INsane. Zo/Eddie Jones combo would be a very nice trade off for losing some of the young talent (Cat, Griff, MoTay, Cato, etc.). But how long until the Rox have to re-build again? And how far can they go in the playoffs with Zo/Eddie Jones (w/Yao & Stevie) and for how long?
