Tyson Chandler? Dallas got him unless they have another guy by that name
The centers Miami has are 2 rookies, Joel Anthony, and now Big Z.

now nike can keep that stupid ass lebron big z barber shop commercial
Chalmers, my mistake.
Heat still need a legit starting defensive center. Z/Bosh starting isn't a good thing at all on D. Z is great for a bench role. Worst case, they go out and nab Kendrick Perkins next summer when he is a free agent and his value will be low.
Hmm. Miami's first misstep. Z was pretty bad last year and figures to be pretty much the same this year. Of course, he may end up bench fodder. But if they're really thinking he's going to give them minutes... could be a little crack in the armor.
From all accounts, Z is/was beloved in Cleveland, but this will change all that. He'll get booed right along with James when they come to town.
What happened to him wanting to keep his family there because they were settled and it was such a great place? That's all we heard about after he got traded to DC and for 30 days he pined to be back in Cleveland.
lol
But yes, it's getting re ed... the fail when they lose to Orlando will only be greater though
If only Big Z was still in his prime.. Then we ed

Im sorry i think i missed the part were you go into the ing delorean too see what happens in the future .Can you give me so more insight on whats gonna happen Doc Brown ?
So far the depth chart looks like this:
PG- Chalmers
SG- Wade/Miller
SF- LeBron
PF- Bosh/Haslem
C- Ilgauskas/most likely Joel Anthony
Now all they need is to bring in 1 more center,another PG and maybe a SF and they should be good to go...
If the Heat did matchup with the Magic, this is clearly the one position where they dominate ..... Howard struggled against Sheed and Perk but he would be brought up on murder charges against Z
Easy.
Let Howard get his, shut down everyone else.
Howard's limited offensive capabilities are good for about 20-30 ppg.
The Cavs should offer him $10 million to block Miami.
Ilgauskas to PD: "I've been a loyal soldier for 14 years. It's time for me to go and chase my dream of winning a ring."
This is one of the funniest moments in NBA history.. Cleveland LOL..they just lost arguably the most popular Cav of all-time to their most hated enemy LOL..you can't write this ..
This is what Cleveland deserves though..this speaks volumes on their organization, and it speaks volumes on Lebron's character, that a guy like Z would leave his home and go join King..
As for basketball-wise, it's an OK signing..Z obviously won't and shouldn't start, he will be a situational big man off the bench, which he can still do, playing 10 MPG or so..
This signing was strictly for Lebron to get Z a ring IMO..he'll contribute, but Lebron obviously cares for Ilgauskas and wants to see him win the big one..Miami is pretty much a guaranteed le, barring injuries, so good move for both sides..
Big Z's been there for like 15 yrs, through the rough years before LeBron. He's in the twilight of his career while the Cavs are rebuilding.
How exactly is this comparable to what LeBron did?
I'm not so sure about that. I certainly wouldn't boo Z and I don't think a lot of other people would either. Frankly, the Cavaliers organization didn't treat him very well over the last year and I would hope people understand that- as well as the fact that he's given everything he can to the team and city since he's gotten here.
My assumption is also that he'll keep his home and family in Cleveland. I would expect him to stay here full-time when he retires- at least I hope that's the case. Not many athletes have expressed the affinity for Cleveland that Z has. We'd have to be pretty ing petty to put that affinity in jeopardy.
I'd like to see Z back in the Cavalier organization after his career is over and, of course, I'd like to see his #11 in the rafters. He's been a good soldier long enough. He's doing what he feels is right for his career moving forward. That should be respected.
totally agree ....... I can see dude ring chasing at the end of his career, a la, KG and Ray Allen ....... dude is well respected.
big z gets a pass...its ok to chase rings when you are old..
I bet these GM's never even scout the players that they go after...
Big Z has been holding LeBron back for 6 years. He finally gets that proverbial monkey off his back... just to have that ogre follow him to Miami...
This is about as dumb as the Jazz finding Booz' clone to hold Millsap back for a few more years...
I hope Pat has the brains to keep Big Z in street clothes...
I dont thing Big Z can hold back LeBron & Co, By coming of the bench once in a while.
I agree totally... But as the roster sits, right now, Big Z is the starting center (assuming the trade is finalized)...
