Legacy Posted July 11, 2010 Report Share Posted July 11, 2010 Cavaliers free-agent center Zydrunas Ilgauskas is interested in re-joining LeBron James with the Heat. Ilgauskas told the Miami Herald on Saturday that he is "looking into the option" of signing with the Heat, who he has been in contact with in recent days.Source Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sun Tzu Posted July 11, 2010 Report Share Posted July 11, 2010 Would be a good move for both parties. Heat get a great center who is a good rebounder and Ilgauskas gets to play with three young superstars for his chance at winning a championship.

Owner Real Deal Posted July 12, 2010 Owner Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 Zydrunas isn't the defensive presence they need, but he can spread the floor and shoot 20-footers spoon-fed to him by the trio. It would be a good signing...but I can just imagine Cleveland fans going ballistic over this as well, since Ilgauskas has been with them forever.

Clutch Posted July 12, 2010 Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 could be great, or terrible...Z was so solid and consistent until shaq came and he got benched..so i dont know..i would rather have a big thats a little more mobile and who can finish above the rim a little bit better than Z can BUT as i look at who is available...don't really have a huge pool to pick from, just gotta hope pittman and varnado are gonna be ready to play 12-15 minutes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitro Posted July 12, 2010 Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 It'd be a great signing. Maybe not exactly what they need from a Center, but that's kind of hard to find when you're only working with minimum contracts. What I like is that he's a big, long body who can rebound, so they won't be at as much of a disadvantage playing against the Lakers/Magic. He also will get a ton of open looks that he can hit on a consistent basis. Doesn't hurt that he has the chemistry with LeBron as well.

moeroadkill Posted July 12, 2010 Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 cavs fans are gonna be pissed.heat are gonna need to round up some big bodies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorilla Dog Posted July 12, 2010 Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 I hope he goes back with the Cavs. The Heat need a very good defensive minded player at C and a guy who loves to do the dirty work on D and rebounding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cleveland's Finest Posted July 12, 2010 Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 If he goes to the Heat, can we still retire his number next season? So when the Heat come to Cleveland, we can retire it and FLBJ will have to watch the fans going nuts for Z. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
