i always thought he was very clumsy and a low basketball IQ

[timvp]

I've actually grown to like him as a player. He's tough, a good rebounder and his offensive game is a underrated. He can get turnover happy and try too hard at times but you don't find bigs with a live body, toughness and coordination too often.

Plus punking KG got my respect

[MaNu4Tres]

I don't think he's worth investing in if his contract ruins the " 2010" plan.

[HarlemHeat37]

I wouldn't mind him if we got Wallace with him..I wouldn't want him as our only big man acquisition though..

[tp2021]

I don't think he's worth investing in if his contract ruins the " 2010" plan.

My guess is that the vast majority of FAs won't jeopardize the 2010 plan, since they all want to be FAs in 2010. There's bound to be a lot of overspending that summer.

[Streakyshooter08]

If he comes for a reasonable price I would like to have him.

Tough as nails

[Manufan909]

So the lowered shoulder screen was after he elbowed Zaza in the face? And how does JVG think this is getting back? What did Zaza do to him?

I think he's Borat's broher.

[objective]

hard to get on the Spurs budget.

Made $4 million a year on his current ending deal if I remember right.

Can't justify the Spurs dropping the full MLE on him.

Then again, maybe the Spurs sign him AND Sanikidze and start their own Georgian War Machine.

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

Great player, I've had my eye on him throughout this season. I think he'd be a great fit, and I doubt he would take up a whole lot of the available money.

[kbrury]

Id take Zaza over Gortat

[EricB]

Agreed, Zaza is a much more talented player.

If it could be done, a S&T for Zaza would be very appealing.

[bigdog]

I would LOVE if the Spurs got Zaza. He's not a great player, but he's not bad, either. He is a hustle machine, and tries his hardest on every play. He mas more balls than Bonner, and he even got in KG's face, which earned complete respect from me.

[Spurtacus]

We need some bigs now!

[Trimble87]

with jeffersons contract is it even feasable to sign someone for the full MLE?

[Darkwaters]

It would have to be a viable post player that could legitimately put us over the top towards another championship. The FO would probably splurge a little more to get there. If it's just to fill out the roster I don't know that it happens.

[Tully365]

With the versatile Jefferson in the line up, Zaza looks even more appealing in the enforcer/muscle role. I wonder just how far above the cap Holt is willing to go?

[HarlemHeat37]

I would like the Zaza addition..it'll be interesting to see what kind of offers he's going to get from other teams..

[GINNNNNNNNNNNNOBILI]

I think Zaza is a very realistic option this summer. If we ended up with Zaza, i'd be happy.

[superbigtime]

I hope Spurs find a way to keep Gooden. But I like Pachulia. Hard nosed player.

[baseline bum]

Zaza would be an enormous upgrade over pussy-ass Bonner.
